Further information provided by the department

Special features regarding teaching

The FHM organises its programmes by trimesters. Thanks to the FHM competence model, the curricula are interdisciplinary, academically compact and application-oriented. Small study groups and study group supervisors allow individual support of each student. Close integration of theory and practice is achieved by practice projects integrated in the course, a close network with medium-sized companies and practical experience of the teaching staff.

Special features regarding the international orientation

The FHM is anchored in the region and, as the partner of a globally expanding SME, also internationally oriented. The aim is to support SMEs in the internationalisation process through qualifying and promoting young executives on the basis of international experience and international research projects. The FHM maintains 60 partnerships, particularly with Asian and British universities, and a German-Asian SME Institute (DAMI). The offers are particularly popular with international Masters students.

Special features regarding the equipment

Students have access to workshops and laboratories thanks to a partnership with the Bielefeld Chamber of Industry and Commerce. In addition, there are several PC clusters with the latest hardware and software available to the students, which can be used in courses and practical projects. The entire university is equipped with WiFi. The equipment in the seminar rooms is state of the art (projectors, whiteboards, etc.). The media campus with news, TV, radio and photo studios and the statistics portal are available to all students.

Special features regarding research activities

The research activities of the faculty focus on the topics "Entrepreneurship", "Sustainability", "City and Country & Mobility" as well as "Digitalisation/Security". These research activities, which are strongly geared towards SMEs, are documented in various institutes and endowed professorships, such as the School of Startups & Succession, the Centre for Sustainable Governance, the Institute for SMEs and the Cyber Institute in Düren. Of particular note is the Open Innovation City project with a funding volume of EUR 5.4.

Support for founders

The Start-Ups module with a final examination in business plan development is compulsory for all students. The FHM has set up an Institute for Start-Ups and Company Succession as an interdisciplinary, application-oriented research facility. Practical seminars and personal coaching sessions allow for start-up expertise and concepts to be utilised for succession arrangements. Our specialists from research and teaching are available to you. The IUG is also open to interested parties from outside the university.

Other special features

Certain prior qualifications under DQR (German Quality Framework), level 6 (Industrial and Master Craftsperson, State-Certified Technician, Certified Technical Business Administrator) are part of the degree course admissions requirements and are recognised with 105 credit points. The trimester structure makes for a compact study experience. The FHM organises the studies in small study groups and provides timetables, ensuring sufficient capacities for each module. Teachers recruited from industry allow for an optimal transfer of knowledge between the universities and companies.
