  • Structure, entry requirements or specialisations: You’ll find the answers in the SPO in the column on the right-hand side of the page.
  • Detailed content of the programme and individual modules: Consult the module handbook in the right-hand column.
  • Authentic insights into the degree programme: at the very top of the right-hand column, you’ll find a link to the student ambassadors (THI students) for each degree programme.
  • Academic questions about the degree programme: Answered by the academic adviser (in the right-hand column)

Every year in spring/summer, the University Information Day takes place at THI in Ingolstadt and in Neuburg. The university presents itself and all its degree programmes at the event. As well as the opportunity to speak to lecturers, students, the Student Advisory Service or companies involved in dual study programmes, there is also an extensive programme of talks and other events. Further details on the current University Information Day will be available below in the Student Advisory Service’s events calendar and the THI events calendar once published.

Taster Days

Prospective students have the opportunity to try out university life for an extended period in the autumn, immediately after the start of the semester. At the heart of this series of events are the regular lectures, which are open and available to attend until mid-November. The taster days begin with study orientation workshops and include further informative elements relating to study orientation.

The Open Campus Online takes place before the taster days in the autumn and offers a brief digital overview of degree programmes at THI and its fields of study.

About the programme

THI FUTURELAB

The THI FUTURELAB is open to all curious and inquisitive school pupils. Through this platform, the University of Applied Sciences shares its knowledge and network across a wide range of fields. The workshops and other activities on offer are also ideal for gaining an insight into a particular subject area and can therefore help pupils choose their course of study.

Campus Days

This is an opportunity for whole groups, as well as individual pupils, to register and get a taste of what it’s like to study at THI during the final days of term. This day is particularly well suited as a school excursion.

Virtual Open Day for prospective international students

The Virtual Open Day provides information about the international degree programmes and the university itself. You will also receive information about the application process and how best to prepare for your stay in Germany. Afterwards, staff will answer your individual questions in Q&A sessions.

The study orientation workshop takes place on-site one morning during the Bavarian school holidays. 

Upcoming dates

Walk & Talk

Several sessions each semester give you the opportunity to get to know the university quickly and concisely. The sessions begin in a lecture theatre at THI with the Student Advisory Service presenting the range of degree programmes and providing information on studying, applications and so on. You will then get to know the university first-hand on a guided tour of the campus. Students will also be present to share their first-hand experiences of everyday student life at THI. Finally, you will have the chance to have one-to-one conversations with these students and the Student Advisory Service to find out about the degree programmes at first hand.

The next sessions will take place during the winter term and will be published here. 

No registration is required.

Bridge courses

Bridge courses in mathematics and physics

It is important to be well prepared before starting a degree. Experience shows that not all first-year students have a solid grounding in the core subjects. Sometimes it has been a long time since they left school, or they may not have attended upper secondary school at all, or their previous results in subjects such as mathematics or physics may not have been at the highest level. To minimise teething problems and ensure the best possible conditions for your studies, it is strongly recommended that you assess your own foundational knowledge and refresh it where necessary. This is the aim of the courses, which take place in the weeks leading up to the start of the semester (in September).

Target audience

In particular, those embarking on a technical degree should critically assess their knowledge of mathematics and physics. It is strongly recommended that you enrol on the bridging course in mathematics or physics if: 

  • it has been some time since you left school
  • you are a master craftsman or hold a vocational qualification
  • you left FOS/BOS after Year 12
  • your grades have so far been in the mid-range or lower range. 

However, (very) high-achieving A-level students who wish to refresh their knowledge before starting their degree are also welcome. Furthermore, it is possible to join the courses at alater stage, up to the third semester. In principle, the courses are open to all students – regardless of their degree programme.

We strongly advise all master craftsmen and those with vocational qualifications who wish to embark on a technical degree to consider further options to supplement their school-leaving qualifications. Vocationaluppersecondaryschools offer ideal preparation for university study. Other forms of study that can cater more flexibly to students’ specific needs, such as part-time study programmes, are also recommended.

Contents

The ‘Schulwissen’ bridging courses in Mathematics and Physics help students get off to a good start at university. They do not really cover university-level material, but focus primarily on upper secondary school content, thereby providing a bridge for a smooth transition from school to university. The bridging courses are designed to provide additional support and opportunities for practice; however, they are not intended as tuition sessions for the mathematics lecture or other subjects. 

An overview of the degree programmes for which we recommend taking these courses, along with the course content, can be found on the pages for each individual course.

Studying without A-levels

Studying without A-levels

Today’s world of work is constantly changing and places high demands on employees’ skills in their professional lives.
Lifelong learning is therefore essential for acquiring the skills expected of employees in today’s workplace. A degree course thus opens up a whole range of opportunities for master craftsmen, those with equivalent qualifications and other professionally qualified individuals to develop both professionally and personally, and to gain the qualifications required for today’s workplace.

In particular, the part-time degree programme at our university’s Campus for Continuing Education is precisely tailored to prospective students without A-levels. The recognition of prior learning from previous training and further education, as well as from practical experience, results in shorter study periods. Tailor-made programmes for beginners without a traditional A-level qualification and intensive support from lecturers in small groups provide comprehensive support throughout your studies. Block teaching and weekend lectures allow you to work alongside your studies to finance your time at university.

Haven’t found the right degree programme at the Campus for Continuing Education? Our full-time programmes offer a wide range of options for a Bachelor’s degree. Please pay particular attention to the information regarding admission to degree programmes without a school-leaving certificate. You can also find out here how to bridge any gaps in your knowledge and prepare specifically for your studies at the university.
