Technology-Entrepreneurship
Excursions, Internships, Projects
Excursions
This provides students with valuable contacts and first-hand practical experience. Various types of companies are visited, from newly founded start-ups to large corporations, such as the SAP Innovation Center, Code University, store2be, Cisco Open Innovation Center, Fraunhofer Institute, and VoltStorage.
Internships
In the TEEM program, you have the opportunity to carry out your two technology projects in cooperation with an existing company. This will give you a high level of practical relevance, as you will have two full days a week off from lectures to work directly in the company as an intern.
Projects
If you are pursuing your own project—be it founding a start-up, planning a succession, or implementing a spin-off—this would be your technology project where you learn 'hands-on' how to implement it successfully. The professors coach you in pursuing your technology project and developing your entrepreneurial skills.
You have the option of completing one technology project over two semesters or two technology projects over one semester each.
Whichever option you choose, you will complete a total of 25 weeks of practical phase/internship outside the university. This is compulsory.

What about going abroad?
As a rule, most students already complete one semester of study at a foreign university in the course of their Bachelor's program. If you are toying with this idea for your Master's studies you should consider the following: Due to the structure of the program with the two integrated technology projects, a semester abroad will most likely prolong your study time. In any case, recognition of the examinations taken abroad must be agreed upon in advance by the Program Director within the framework of a Learning Agreement.
However, you could write your Master's thesis at a company or research institution abroad. You are welcome to contact the Director of the study program to discuss possibilities.
