Dual studies

The dual study programme at the Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State University (DHBW), Stuttgart campus combines academic university studies with practical experience in a company (= dual partner).
 

Each academic year is divided into theoretical phases at the Duale Hochschule, Faculty of Engineering, and practical phases at LAPP. This alternation allows students to benefit not only from the theoretical knowledge imparted, but also from its direct application in practice (= practice-integrated studies).
 

The General Industrial Engineering degree programme – based on the fundamentals of mechanical engineering and economics – takes a holistic approach to agile and efficient business processes (smart operations management). Graduates of the programme thus become sought-after generalists at the operational interfaces between the economic and technical functional areas of a wide range of industries.
 

In the second year of study (from the 4th semester onwards), the focus is on one of four elective specialisations: Digital Production, Innovation and Product Management, International Technical Sales and Sustainable Procurement & Material Science. The choice of specialisation is to be agreed with the company at the end of the first year of study.
 

The course of study lasts three years and concludes with the internationally recognised academic degree of ‘Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.)’. Performance assessment in the bachelor's programme at the DHBW is carried out in accordance with the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

The course of study at the DHBW is modularised. Further information can be found on the study portal.

At LAPP, the dual study programme begins on 1 September with an upstream practical phase.
