Contents of studies Electronics and Information Technology Dual
Dual = double good
The Electronics and Information Technology Dual degree program at the FHV lasts six semesters, including all practical phases in the company. In the first academic year, you will deal intensively with engineering fundamentals. Courses, exercises and labs provide variety and create a good basis for the start of the dual phase in the 3rd semester
In a partner company you expand your knowledge in a professional environment. Study and company practice phases alternate. You study and work on your professional career already during your studies.
You are financially secure and insured with a monthly salary. For the study phases at the FHV you will be released by your employer. Due to the blocked phases, there is no double burden - you can always fully concentrate on the respective phase.
