What do you do as a student in the Electrical Engineering Practice Network at the University of Kassel?
Combining academic study with practical experience? At the University of Kassel, you can do both in one place.
The practice-based Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering program combines academic study with practical phases and integrated vocational training—all at the University of Kassel. You’ll also receive financial support throughout the program.
The Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering program consists of alternating practical and lecture phases and lasts 7 semesters. The lecture phases take place in the Department of Electrical Engineering/Computer Science at the Wilhelmshöher Allee campus, and the practical phases take place in the university’s training workshop at the Wilhelmshöher Allee campus and in the Technical Building Management department at the Holländischer Platz campus.
While pursuing your degree, you’ll complete an apprenticeship as an electronics technician for industrial engineering and attend vocational school regularly on Fridays.
On the one hand, you’ll receive training as an electronics technician for industrial engineering in the university’s training workshop and in the Technical Building Management department. On the other hand, you’ll gain knowledge of the fundamentals of engineering as well as specialized university-related knowledge.
