Study part-time

Study mode

Our part-time Master’s degree programme is compatible with career and family. The high proportion of e-learning and consequent freedom to work anywhere is a key advantage.

Lectures are scheduled for Thursdays, from 18:00 until approx. 21:30, Fridays from 14:00 until approx. 21:30, and Saturdays from 08:45 to around 16:30. Your time is divided between attending lectures and online study units: Thursdays are principally taught online, Fridays and Saturdays are split between classroom teaching and online units. A broadband connection and a headset are required for the e-learning units.

You will spend roughly every second Friday from 2.00 pm to around 9.30 pm and every second Saturday from 8.45 am to 4.30 pm at FH JOANNEUM. There are only two weeks of face-to-face teaching per semester, if required:

Self-study

The amount of self-study always depends on the student’s own level of commitment and ambition.

Attendance

Attendance is compulsory during the specified attendance times. Students are excused in cases of illness after producing a medical certificate from a doctor. Final judgement on the implications of absence and on exceptions to the attendance requirement will be made by the head of institute.
