The DHBW closely cooperates with more than 9,000 companies and
social institutions all over Germany – the so-called “dual partners”.
The dual partners select their students themselves and, as members of the
university, they are responsible for the practice-oriented part of the Studies.
The practice-integrated concept ensures that the graduates are highly
employable. A very large percentage is taken on by the dual partners.
In the course of their three-year studies, the students regularly switch between
university and company/social institution and the receive a monthly income.
