Freshman

The Freshman Programme is a 10-month fast track system designed to provide high-performing and motivated students with the fastest and most optimum start in studying at German universities. Unlike ‘A’-levels or any other traditional foundation courses that require students to enrol for 2 years locally, and then see whether they qualify for a study place in Germany, the Freshman Programme has a test-based entrance. This means that any students regardless of past qualifications can study in Germany, provided they have a good aptitude and the right mindset.

Upon passing the math-based test, they will be offered to enrol in the Freshman Institute, which is an integrated part of the FH Aachen - University of Applied Sciences.

The Freshman Programme is the foundation year (Studienkolleg) at the FH Aachen. It is an ideal entry year where students from all over the world study in small groups in an exciting intercultural environment to prepare for their future amidst changing global economy. More than 300 freshmen successfully complete the programme every year. The Freshman Programme prepares students for a number of degree programmes taught in English, German, or a combination of both languages. Their modern, well-equipped labs play a major role in ensuring that students are later able to apply their knowledge to their chosen careers. The Freshman Institute offers courses with focus on engineering, business, medicine, and humanities.

FH Aachen has consistently been ranked No.1 by the Wirtschaftswoche (business weekly magazine) out of all German Universities of Applied Science in mechanical engineering. In addition, it is the top 10 for electrical engineering and IT. The ranking is compiled annually through surveying approximately 500 managers of significant German companies, on which university graduates they preferred for various positions in their companies.
