Introduction

Duale Hochschule Schleswig-Holstein is a university of applied sciences located in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. It features a dual education model that closely combines academic learning with practical training in enterprises, providing students with an efficient career-oriented education.

Overview

Student size: The school is of moderate size, and the specific number of students fluctuates from year to year, but every year many students benefit from the dual education system to study here, providing a large number of professional talents for local enterprises and society.

Faculty: The faculty consists of professors with rich academic knowledge and corporate trainers with practical work experience. This faculty structure can well combine theoretical teaching with practical teaching, allowing students to obtain comprehensive knowledge and skills training.

History and establishment time

The school was established in 2009 as a product of Germany's education reform, aiming to meet the needs of regional economic development for professional and technical talents through a dual education model.

School Strength

Course Setting: Provides a wide range of bachelor's and master's degree courses, covering engineering technology, economic management, information technology, social work and other fields. The course content is closely integrated with actual work needs. For example, in the field of engineering technology, corresponding practical courses will be set according to different professional directions (such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, etc.), including actual work links such as workshop operation and equipment maintenance in cooperative enterprises.

Teaching Mode: The dual system is its core teaching mode. Students study alternately in two places, school and enterprise. Usually, part of the time is spent in school to learn theoretical knowledge, including basic subject knowledge, professional theory, etc.; the other part of the time is spent in the enterprise for practical operation, guided by enterprise mentors, and participating in actual projects and work processes. This model enables students to accumulate rich work experience in the learning process and quickly adapt to their jobs after graduation.
