Innovation Management
Turn a flash of genius, a brilliant idea into success! As essential success factors, new innovations are constantly needed in businesses in order to gain a competitive edge. The best idea however, can only become a successful innovation if customer needs and market changes are considered. Therefore, it is becoming increasingly important for companies to employ business engineers that have systematic innovation skills.
Automation Technology
Automation technology works at the interface between electronics, informatics, mechanical engineering and business. The challenge when automating technical processes is to produce an optimum mix between mostly conflicting aspects of time, cost, quality, resources and the environment. Here it is important to consider the whole system instead of optimising individual components independently from one another. Modular solutions are therefore becoming increasingly more important.
Information Technologies & Business Informatics
One thing is certain: There is a lack of business informaticians, yet the demand in business continues to grow. In an increasingly complex professional world, specialising in only one field is no longer advantageous. Therefore, business informatics is becoming more important as the link between business and informatics.
Financial Accounting & Management Accounting
Business success and an efficient company organisation are not based on luck or coincidence, but on ideal strategic planning, leadership skills and state-of-the-art knowledge about processes in management accounting and business administration. The Degree Programme in Financial Accounting & Management Accounting offers cutting-edge and practice-oriented training based on the newest developments in the industry, equips you with the perfect tool kit to lead a company to success and move to top positions in international groups.
Marketing & Sales
A well functioning cooperation between marketing and sales is the key to attracting, convincing and retaining customers along the customer journey. A close and cooperative exchange between these two disciplines and the development of common goals therefore contributes significantly to the success of a company. Through the mixture of theory and practice, our students develop all the skills and competences that are needed in digital marketing and sales and are thus well prepared for the day to day work in these disciplines.
A brainwave, a brilliant idea – turn it into a success story. Companies constantly need innovations since they are a key success factor and give them advantage over their competition. Still, even the very best of ideas can only become a successful innovation if customer needs and market changes are taken into account. That’s why it is extremely important for companies to employ business engineers with systematic innovation skills.

Facebook page "FHCAMPUS02.INNO"Imagine a world full of businesses that do the same thing. We would still listen to music with heavy and clunky CD players instead of walking around hands free in the streets with a light, portable and small iPod. We would still read maps on road trips instead of being guided by a navigation system. Or even simpler: We would choose our favourite chocolate from a small selection of tastes, shapes and packaging sizes. Today’s range of offers, handy inventions and facilitations of everyday life are based on ideas that innovation managers realised. Well-known brands for instance, have known for a long time that innovation leads to a competitive edge. In contrast to the world we just imagined, today’s companies, regardless of size, rely on innovation management and its people.
See here, where our graduates work!
Our Bachelor graduates work in innovation, production, quality, development, software, purchase and sales. These activities are performed in the following fields:
Right after graduating from school, I applied for the extra-occupational Bachelor degree programme without having a professional occupation. I am gaining practical experience through a variety of projects throughout my studies.
With the degree programme I could significantly expand my horizons. Besides the training in technical fundamentals, I particularly regarded the business and innovation-specific course units as highly important.
I am able to apply what I’ve learnt through my Degree Programme in both my job as an IT project manager and as founder of my own start-up company, quasifertig, allowing me to benefit enormously from the think out-of-the-box approach.
