Voraussetzungen für die Einschreibung

Ins Onlinestudium Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen Produktion und Fertigung an der Hochschule Fresenius steigen Sie ganz unkompliziert ein: Mit einer allgemeinen Hochschulreife (Abitur), der allgemeinen Fachhochschulreife oder der fachgebundenen Hochschulreife können Sie sich sofort und jederzeit immatrikulieren.
Auch ein Zugang ohne Abitur ist möglich, etwa falls Sie eine Meisterprüfung oder eine vergleichbare berufliche Aufstiegsfortbildungsprüfung absolviert haben, beispielsweise den Staatlich geprüften Techniker oder den Staatlich geprüften Betriebswirt. Wenn Sie eine mindestens zweijährige abgeschlossene fachspezifische Berufsausbildung sowie anschließende mindestens zweijährige fachspezifische Berufserfahrung nachweisen können, können Sie ins Studium auch per Hochschulzugangsprüfung (HZP) einsteigen.
Übrigens: Falls Sie schon ein Studium hinter sich haben, können Sie Kosten und Zeit sparen, indem Sie Vorleistungen anerkennen lassen. Neben hochschulischen Leistungen können so auch Leistungen angerechnet werden, die Sie außerhalb einer Hochschule erworben haben.
