Want to know more?
The KIA (sandwich-style) degree course at HSZG allowed me to combine theoretical engineering knowledge with real-world business practice and take on responsibility early on. I found the close integration of my studies and professional experience particularly valuable, as well as the understanding of how technical solutions are developed under real economic and organizational conditions. The direct connection between the university and industry significantly accelerated my entry into the workforce and opened up long-term career prospects for me in the energy sector. I recommend the KIA (sandwich-style) degree course to anyone who not only wants to understand technology but also wants to actively shape it—in a way that’s practical, challenging, and forward-looking.
