Study programme structure

Learning content in detail

A part-time studies is a special challenge!

Contact hours at the FHV, single days in online mode, self-organized learning at home as well as group and project work require a high level of discipline, consistent time management and a lot of energy from you, but allow you to successfully combine learning and working.

The courses take place from Friday afternoon to Friday evening, on Saturday all day as well as on additional attendance days. Annually, you should plan up to 6 vacation days for your studies. For the obligatory study trip you should reserve another 12 calendar days. The FHV recommends that you make appropriate preparations and arrangements with your company and private environment before you start your studies. A reduction of the professional activity to 80% part-time has proven to be successful.

The courses in part-time studies take place in the winter semester from September to the beginning of February and in the summer semester from mid-February to the beginning of July.

Organizational measures support the studyability of the program and help you to achieve the learning objectives. Exemplary are these:

  • Optimized scheduling with little idle time and variety in offerings. Certain weekends are free of instruction (Easter, Christmas).
  • Preview of contact hours and exam dates several months in advance
  • .
  • Presentation and examination times are only changed in exceptional cases (e.g. illness of a lecturer).
  • Exam dates if possible right after completion of a course to avoid compressed exam situations at the end of the semester.
  • Small group sizes - this creates room for individual supervision when working on practice examples, case studies and projects.
  • The availability of electronic media (scripts, eBooks, essays in subject databases) is very high and is constantly being expanded.
