Bereits während ihrer Schulzeit haben Bettina die Fächer Mathematik und Physik sehr gefallen. Da ihr der praktische Bezug im BORG fehlte entschied sie…
It's fascinating what technology makes possible: From robotics to automation technology to Industry 4.0, the human spirit of invention always manages to master problems and overcome obstacles. The engineers behind these solutions are characterized by creativity and logical thinking - and by in-depth technical knowledge. All of these skills are of great importance in the Bachelor's degree program "Systems Engineering".
Whether it is the development of the latest smartphone generation or autonomous driving: Systems Engineers have played a significant role in the development of new technologies. They use their ability to understand technical systems and translate them from concept to reality. Therefore, problem-based learning is promoted from the very first day of studies, while at the same time the acquired knowledge is applied practically in laboratories from the very beginning. Students solve problems in teamwork using industrial equipment: systems are specified, developed, manufactured, evaluated, implemented and tested. System-oriented thinking is the key and is taught centrally in the Systems Engineering course.
The same applies to the basics of electronics and mechatronics. They form the basis on which the further course contents are built. Students have the opportunity to specialize in one field: There is a choice of three majors: Electronics is the choice of all those who want to deal with the technical devices of everyday life. From smartphones to computers, from the Internet of Things (IOT) to medical devices, a wide range of applications awaits students who want to develop their skills further. The Mechatronics/ Automation Technology specialization deals with, among other things, modern industrial plants, smart homes or the production processes of Industry 4.0. And in Mechatronics/ Robotics students get to know the diverse areas of application of this interdisciplinary field of knowledge, which closely links the fields of electrical engineering, mechanics and computer science. The robot is at the centre of the task.
Project-based learning is highly valued in all specializations and helps students to glide smoothly from their work experience into the world of work.
Sie sind bestens vorbereitet. Zudem besteht die Möglichkeit, sich einzelne Fächer anrechnen zu lassen.
Ja natürlich! Wir setzen keine spezifischen technischen Vorkenntnisse voraus. Jedoch erweist sich insbesondere die Mathematik-Ausbildung, wie sie an AHS vermittelt wird, als äußerst wertvoll für das Studium.
Für die Zulassung zu einem Bachelor-Studiengang an der FH Kärnten muss mindestens eines der folgenden Kriterien erfüllt sein:
Darüber hinaus ist Ihr Interesse an technischen Fragestellungen eine wichtige Voraussetzung. Wir setzen keine spezifischen technischen Vorkenntnisse voraus. Zusätzlich unterstützen wir Sie durch ein Roboterprojekt im ersten Semester, um einen spielerischen Einstieg in die Welt der Technik zu ermöglichen.
Industriekooperationen und Praktika sind ebenfalls wichtige Bestandteile des Studiums. Durch die Zusammenarbeit mit Unternehmen erhalten Sie wertvolle Einblicke in die reale Arbeitswelt und haben die Möglichkeit Kontakte zu knüpfen und Ihr Wissen in konkreten Projekten anzuwenden.
Die Fachhochschule Kärnten setzt auf ein umfassendes Partnernetzwerk, um Studierende als auch Alumni beim Erreichen ihrer persönlichen Karriereziele bestmöglich zu unterstützen. Gleichzeitig pflegen wir den engen Kontakt zu regionalen und internationalen Firmen, um nah am wirtschaftlichen Geschehen zu sein, Bedarfe zu ermitteln und die Nachwuchskräfte durch unser vielfältiges Studien- und Weiterbildungsprogramm adäquat ausbilden zu können.

Durch ein mögliches Auslandssemester an einer unserer über 100 Partnerhochschulen haben Sie die Chance, Ihre interkulturellen Kompetenzen zu erweitern, neue Perspektiven kennenzulernen und Ihre akademischen Kenntnisse in einem internationalen Umfeld anzuwenden. Auslandssemester - mehr Informationen
Please contact us if you have any questions about your studies:
HTL graduates can shorten their bachelor's degree by up to one year if they have passed selected entrance examinations before starting their studies and have completed a relevant HTL. The entry requirement for the 3rd semester is a grade point average of 2 or better in the last two annual reports (4th and 5th grade) of the HTL.
Entry into the 2nd semester is possible on an individual basis after reviewing the documents.
With over 100 Study & Work partner companies and organizations, CUAS offers students the opportunity to combine studying and working!
As a modern and broad-based technical basic course of study, the bachelor's degree program "Systems Engineering" places a brand-new emphasis on electronics and automation. Students deal with the pressing issues of digitisation: data analysis, embedded systems and robotics. The knowledge they acquire during their studies is in demand in many industries - from communications, medical and entertainment technology to the automotive and semiconductor industries, systems engineers are in great demand.
The special feature of this training is the acquisition of systems thinking, which, together with modern information technologies, paves new paths in the development of technology. Students learn here in an innovative way how intelligent systems and devices can be planned and implemented.
Based on a profound understanding of the fundamentals of mechatronics and electronics, the course enables students to specialize in various current topics that are in high demand in industry: electronics, automation technology and robotics. Due to the high level of project work in the course, it is easy for students to make a seamless transition from their studies into professional practice.
What students should bring to their studies:
In order to facilitate the start of studies, we offer intensive courses in mathematics, computer science and physics as part of the FH Add-ons.
A lack of a university entrance qualification can be compensated by relevant professional qualifications and attendance of the pre-study course.
After successful completion of their studies, graduates have the following skills and knowledge:

Reinhard ToberThe Villach region combines tradition, cosmopolitanism and quality of life with the advantages of an innovative business location. Villach, a small town with about 60,000 inhabitants, is an international high-tech location with groundbreaking cooperation between science and industry and is also increasingly developing into a start-up town.
Situated directly at the intersection of three cultures, Villach, situated on the Drava river, is an important traffic junction in the Alps-Adriatic region. This special geographical location and the beautiful landscape around Villach and in the federal state of Carinthia have made the region a popular holiday destination for generations, further beyond the borders. The drinking water quality of the lakes and the particularly clean air make Villach and its surroundings an environmental paradise.
In addition to its geographical advantages, Austria also leads the world in terms of its social and health care system and is considered a particularly safe, prosperous and liveable country.
Despite the above-average prosperity and the comprehensive state social benefits, Villach compares favourably with many international destinations. The "small town bonus" comes into its own here and makes everyday life affordable.
