This is a bilingual, eight-semester Bachelor's program in Engineering offered at OWL University of Applied Sciences and Arts. The program provides a holistic approach, combining technical skills with practical experience through project-based learning and teamwork. The initial semesters are taught in English, covering fundamental STEM disciplines, with German language courses included for international students. After a foundational phase, students choose a specialization from nine engineering fields. A mandatory internship in the fourth semester allows students to gain professional experience in a German company and improve their language skills, before continuing their specialization in German from the fifth semester onwards.
The program structure includes foundational STEM modules, language courses, an internship, and specialization-specific courses. The first three semesters are primarily in English, with German language training. The fourth semester is dedicated to an internship. From the fifth to the eighth semester, courses are taught in German, focusing on the chosen specialization.
Graduates are well-prepared for a wide range of engineering roles, both within a chosen specialization and in interdisciplinary positions. The program's practical approach, industry partnerships, and integrated internship provide a strong foundation for career development.
Proof of German language knowledge (A1 level) must be provided at the latest by the time of enrollment.
There are semester dues, which cover administrative costs and often include a public transport ticket. Specific amounts for semester dues are available on the university's website.
