Experience abroad can be customised in many ways
The degree programme aims to provide a Bachelor's degree in Landshut, but also offers the option of obtaining a double degree with two semesters abroad and an internship abroad. Students are free to decide at which partner university they would like to spend the semesters abroad - depending on the desired country and/or specialisation options on site. If the internship semester is also spent abroad and a partner university with a double degree option is chosen, students have the opportunity to obtain a double degree from the partner university via the German Bachelor's degree.
Dual study programme
The dual study programme is a practice-oriented form of study that combines theoretical course content at universities with professional practice in a company. During their dual study programme, students complete both lectures at the university and practical assignments at the company, allowing them to acquire both academic knowledge and practical experience at the same time.
