Overview of the Degree Programmes

In addition to full-time studies, FH Aachen also offers dual study programmes (with integrated training and extra-occupational or practice-integrated, resp.) as well as part-time degree programmes.

A degree programme is divided into several semesters. There are two semesters each year, a winter and a summer semester. Most degree programmes start in autumn (September/October) with the winter semester.

A semester consists of several modules. Each module deals with a topic and can consist of lectures, exercises and practical training. Usually, all modules end with an examination. Students who successfully complete a module receive a certain number of credit points and a grade, which are credited to their own "study account".

FH Aachen is a university with on-campus learning, with most courses taking place in the FH buildings on campuses in Aachen and Jülich. Innovative digital elements complement on-site teaching.
