Advantages for students and companies

Advantages for students

Students have the opportunity to get in touch with potential employers right at the start of their studies. Depending on the company, fixed part-time employment contracts or internships are awarded, which allow an optimal combination of theory and practice. Additionally, students have the opportunity to study in a goal-oriented manner and earn money at the same time. This provides a solid foundation for further professional development.

Advantages for companies

It is becoming increasingly difficult for companies to find highly qualified employees. The Study & Work program offers the possibility of early contact with selected students and the associated recruitment and retention of employees. It also gives companies the opportunity to confront students with practical issues that can be worked on in a theoretical framework. Companies receive potential applications from the Carinthia University of Applied Sciences once a year in November via the Study & Work job service. Students are selected directly by the company. Depending on whether the candidates study part- or full-time, employment is possible on a marginal or part-time basis (up to 20h / week). The employment contract is concluded between the company and the respective student.
