"At EDAG, I can be sure that I will always find the time - and more importantly the support - to prepare properly for upcoming exams."Leon, dual system student studying electrical engineering & computer engineering.
Swotting up on theory, putting this straight into practice - and earning money at the same time? A dual study course offers high school graduates great chances and can give your career the boost it needs. We offer every young talent the right study programme to advance their personality and career. America, Portugal, Poland - our dual system students have the opportunity to spend a semester at one of our branches abroad, and gather some intercultural experience.
These courses take the form of periods of attendance at a University of Cooperative Education or Applied Sciences during which theory is taught, alternating with periods at EDAG when this is put into practice. Early practical experience is invaluable nowadays.
Our dual courses are as diverse as your talents and strengths. Choose the right one for you from our wide range of courses!
"More than anything else, my apprenticeship at EDAG is extremely varied." Jonathan, student on an apprenticeship training-integrated course
Have you just finished school, and are finding it difficult to choose between doing an apprenticeship and going to university? Why not do both? At EDAG, there are certain professions where this is not a problem!
An apprenticeship training-integrated study course combines a practical apprenticeship with a university course. You start with a technical product designer apprenticeship*. This apprenticeship is the ideal preparation for your seamless transition to the study course. An apprenticeship training-integrated study course lasts about 5 years. This means that, in a relatively short period of time, you will have two certificates in your pocket. This ideal combination is the perfect way to prepare for working life.
Working in our project teams gives you first hand practical experience, and means that you take on responsible tasks from the very outset. Don't worry: our success rate is 99%! Earn money during your apprenticeship and university course, and spend a semester abroad at one of our international locations.
