OptLA - Option study of the technical teaching profession
A successfully completed Bachelor's degree in Engineering Education at the University of Applied Sciences in Mittweida or at the West Saxon University of Applied Sciences in Zwickau offers entry into a career in education and the opportunity to continue your studies in "Teacher Training - Vocational Schools" at TU Dresden.
The IngPäd+ study option
Through a collaboration between Mittweida University of Applied Sciences, West Saxon University of Applied Sciences in Zwickau, and TU Dresden, the Bachelor’s program in Engineering Education (IngPäd) has been implemented at both institutions. Graduates of this degree program have the opportunity to enter the “Teacher Training – Vocational Schools” degree program at TU Dresden with simplified admission requirements. The structure and implementation of the bachelor’s program, as well as the organization of the transition into the teacher education program, were planned jointly and are carried out in close coordination.
This program option also offers individuals with a vocational college entrance qualification the opportunity to enter the teacher training program without a general university entrance qualification.
All information regarding the Bachelor’s in Engineering Education can be found on our joint website for the Bachelor’s in Engineering Education.
This program is funded by tax revenues based on the budget approved by the Saxon State Parliament.
