You earn your academic degree in a fixed period of time
The part-time degree courses at the Carinthia University of Applied Sciences (CUAS) are completed in the specified time (Bachelor 6 semesters or 8 semesters on request; Master 4 semesters) with an internationally recognized academic degree, including eligibility for a doctorate at a later date.

 You benefit from the tailor-made degree program for working professionals
Part-time degree courses are easy to combine with your job. Lectures are held exclusively - depending on the degree course - in the evening, at weekends or partially blocked. The new situation has allowed us to grow in the area of digitalization, so that some lectures will also be held online in the future. Due to the high level of service, there is minimal organizational effort for students and you can rely on a schedule designed for you.   

 You make a career during further training
You often reach the limits of your career after a few years of professional experience. By studying part-time at CUAS, you gain a knowledge advantage over your colleagues in the company. You will already benefit from new career prospects and opportunities for promotion and career change during your studies. Studying alongside your job increases your chances of new tasks, management responsibility and career advancement enormously.

 You benefit from the synergy effects between study and practice
Part-time students are constantly working on projects and case studies for well-known clients from the business world. Furthermore, most of the courses are taught by lecturers with practical experience. Right from the start, you will put the content you have learned into practice in your job, thereby improving the quality of your work and your position in the company.

 You create your own network
Numerous contacts during your studies with fellow students and lecturers from business and academia and afterwards with graduates guarantee successful networking beyond the duration of your studies.

  You demonstrate commitment, resilience and stamina
Anyone who decides to study part-time is highly motivated and proves their qualifications for a responsible job by successfully completing their studies. Stamina is a quality that employers appreciate. The considerable demands placed on part-time students ensure that they work in highly motivated student groups.

 You study without financial loss
Why choose between a job and further education when both are possible? By studying alongside your job, you will continue to have job security, be on course for a higher salary and continue to collect pension years.
