The Bachelor course in industrial engineering is an interdisciplinary and dual course with approximately 60% commercial and approximately 40% technical content. It targets mainly applicants in employment who have had initial technical training and relevant work experience. After three years (six semesters) you have completed an academic course of study which will give you the largest amount of flexibility for decisions later on: you can have a career but you're also entitled to do a more detailed Master’s degree.
