      Studying part-time

      Studying part-time

      The Systems Engineering degree can also be completed on a part-time basis while working.

      If you choose to study part-time while in employment, you can complete the degree as follows:

      • Four years
      • 33 weeks of classes per year
      • 30 study hours per week, including self-study time
      • Classes on Tuesday evenings, Thursday evenings, Friday daytimes and Saturday mornings
      • 18 credit points can be counted toward the degree once your employment status has been checked
      • It is possible to work for 60% of the time over four full workdays
      • Credits can be given for projects assigned to you by your employer
      • Credits are given for any previous knowledge from a university of applied sciences

      The above figures are intended as a guideline and can vary individually. Students are not required to be in employment for a minimum amount of time. You can take advantage of the option to study on a full-time basis or part-time basis while working if you can otherwise schedule your study time. The degree programme will take longer to complete in accordance with the work schedule you undertake.

      This was a decision I made with my future in mind

      Undertaking the Systems Engineering degree on a part-time basis while working enables me to remain active in the private sector. Being able to practically apply the knowledge I have acquired on an ongoing basis is brilliant. Success can be achieved through study.
