    Before the studies

    You have a pronounced passion for technology, construction and technical processes. You are interested in a product's progress along the manufacturing chain and in developing your own concepts towards further automating or optimizing production. Your way of working - thinking ideas through to the end - are to your advantage here. You are keen to be part of the quest for alternatives to materials, since you take sustainability and preservation of resources seriously. You consider knowledge of economics as a good supplement to the technical degree programs.

    Why you should study with us

    Participate in interdisciplinary student or research projects

    This way, fun and experience are guaranteed!

    Practical training on campus

    • Goal
      The goal is to offer a study place to those persons who complete the multi-stage admission procedure with the best results. The test procedures are based on the skills required for the intended profession.
    • Procedure
      The written admission test includes a series of test requirements and tests your logical thinking skills and basic scientific knowledge. (Duration of written test: approx. 60 minutes)
      Afterwards, all applicants will have an oral interview in which you will receive feedback on the results of the written test. In addition, you will answer questions about yourself and explain your motivation for choosing this course of study. (Duration of the interview per candidate: approx. 15 minutes).
      If you have not yet reached the required entry level for the study program, you will receive recommendations after admission on how to best prepare yourself subject-specifically.
    • Criteria
      Admission criteria are based solely on performance. You will receive points for your written test scores and oral interview. This results in the ranking of the candidates*.
      Geographical assignments of the applicants have no influence on the admission.
      The admission requirements must be met.
      The entire process as well as all test results and evaluations of the admission procedure are documented and archived in a traceable manner.

    Do you still have questions about the study?

    During the studies

    We cooperate closely with renowned companies in commerce and industry. You may benefit from this in many ways: Our state-of-the-art research and development laboratories were set up by Phoenix Contact, an internationally operating company in the field of electrical engineering and automation. This guarantees a wide spectrum of teaching and learning in automation. A range of interesting companies and cooperation partners are also represented at our "Firmentag Technik" (Company day Technology) at the main FH Campus Vienna. You may utilize your time between courses to establish contacts for your professional career and enter into discussions with potential employers.

    We will support you towards realizing your ideas for exciting projects and offer you a stage: We showcase the best projects to a wide audience in our Campus Innovation Lab at the Open House or at the BeSt trade fair. You may, furthermore, participate in R&D projects and in developing the dialog between practice and science.

    The project-oriented and strong practical orientation of this study course is a major advantage. Taking into account the full life cycle of a product from design to implementation is a priority of ours. Students may, for instance, design a racing car, be responsible for its manufacture and race it themselves - as with the international Formula Student construction competition of the Society of Automotive Engineers, for instance.

    The possibilities and potentials of 3D printing are a salient High Tech Manufacturing topic. A project combining computer tomography with 3D printing is currently running in the Radiology section. A special program scans parts of the body and the three dimensional data are then analyzed, for producing plastic models on the 3D printer for mouth, jaw and facial surgery.

    This includes following trends in material research and integrating these in the study course. These currently comprise bioplastics, increasingly considered as materials for construction.

    Within the framework of their studies, we can also offer students of the High Tech Manufacturing Bachelor's degree program certifications in demand in industry, such as the LabView certificate and PMA Project management Austria Level D.

    The Bachelor's degree program in this form is unique in Austria.

    The focus is mainly on the four major fields of competency in contemporary industrial engineering degree programs: Technological basics, automation, economy and leadership and management competency.

    • The basic degree program imparts scientific engineering skills in mathematics, mechanics, manufacturing technology, electronics and IT. Semesters three and four focus on pertinent basics such as planning and control of manufacturing processes, high-tech production procedures, logistical processes, business administration fundamentals, leadership and management.
    • The fifth semester is all about your internship.
    • In the sixth semester, you will increasingly deal with modern communication and control systems, structuring of automated manufacturing systems, application of IT systems in process control and monitoring, also future innovative developments in the field of Intelligent Manufacturing Systems.

    Content

    With the networking of even the smallest micro-computer systems, the Internet of Things, the use of this special form of embedded systems has gained in importance. The basis for this are simple microcontrollers which are in contact with the environment through electronic actuators and sensors. In this course, programs with basic functions are to read and process sensor data and control actuators.
    The course covers in particular the following contents:

    • Simple microcontroller programming based on ARM-mbed (or Arduino)
    • Digital input/output (LEDs, buttons)
    • DC voltage, ohmic resistor, pull-up/down, level adjustment
    • Analog Input/Output (AD/DA)
    • Peripheral functions
    • System-on-a-Chip
    • Basic concepts of applied computer science (program, algorithm, programming)
    • Introduction to programming (in C)
