You are already enrolled at Anhalt University of Applied Sciences and want to transfer to another degree program from our range of courses? Then please note the following information:

A transfer to a degree program without admission restrictions must be applied for at the Student Services within the deadline for re-registration (by 15.03. or 15.09.).

A transfer to a restricted-admission program is made via the regular admission requirements. In this case an application must be submitted via SSC portal before the respective application deadline. Students of Anhalt University of Applied Sciences who have previously applied via uni-assist, please additionally upload the uni-assist test report.

Further information can be found here.

After receiving the certificate of the academic part of the Fachhochschulreife from  your school (eg. Gymnasium/ Fachgymnasium, Gesamtschule or Abendgymnasium/Kolleg), the Fachhochschulreife can be awarded if sufficient practical work of at least one year is proven. This proof can be provided by:

• a recognized completed training occupation or
• at least two years of completed vocational training (vocational school) or
• a career qualification for career group 1 or
• a military or alternative service, federal voluntary service or
• a practical activity of at least one year (internship).

The award of the Fachhochschulreife must be applied for at the responsible state education authority after completion of the internship or training.

The question about the duration of an application process cannot be answered in a general way. First, your documents are checked for completeness. If your application is first checked by uni-assist, it may take some time until we receive your application. This always depends on the volume of applications.

If all documents are complete, you will promptly receive an offer of admission for open-admission programs (usually Bachelor). For courses of study with restricted admission, the department first conducts an aptitude test. Here, too, everything depends on the number of applications.

Vom Rohstoff zum hochwertigen Endprodukt

Die Verfahrenstechnik beschäftigt sich mit allen Vorgängen in denen Grundstoffe - Rohstoffe wie Erdöl, Erdgas oder Eisenerz, Kulturpflanzen wie Weizen oder Hopfen, tierische Produkte wie z.B. Milch oder Fleisch - in ihrer Zusammensetzung oder Eigenschaften verändert bzw. zu Kraftstoffen, Kunststoffen, Lebensmitteln oder Medikamenten umgewandelt werden. Darunter fallen alle Prozesse in der Technik und Wirtschaft in denen aus den Grundstoffen neue, hochwertige Produkte hergestellt werden. Die Liste der verfahrenstechnisch hergestellten Produkte ist lang, die der dazu benötigten Prozesse und Anlagen noch länger. In Bioanlagen werden z.B. Algen durch biologische, chemische oder physikalische Prozesse in Kraftstoffe, Lebensmittel oder Medikamente umgewandelt. Je nach Verfahren unterscheidet man die Teilbereiche mechanische, thermische, chemische oder Bioverfahrenstechnik.

Typisches Kennzeichen der Verfahrenstechnik (engl. Process Engineering) ist ihr kontinuierlicher Charakter. Die Materialien „fließen“ in großen Mengen durch die Anlagen. So offenbart der Gang durch eine verfahrenstechnische Anlage, z.B. für die Produktion von Kunststoffen oder Zucker, eine Vielzahl an Rohrleitungs- und Reinigungssystemen, Edelstahltanks, Dosier- und Förderanlagen sowie Pumpen und weitere Apparate. Natürlich darf auch die moderne Prozessleit- und Automatisierungstechnik nicht übersehen werden.

Wer in der chemischen und pharmazeutischen Industrie, in der Umwelttechnik, der Nahrungsmittelindustrie oder im Brauen von Bier seine berufliche Zukunft sieht, sollte sich mit Verfahren und den Anlagen zum Pumpen von Flüssigkeiten oder zum Zerkleinern, Mischen und Trennen von Feststoffen gut auskennen.

• the general university entrance qualification (eg. Abitur)
• the subject-related university entrance qualification (eg. Fachabitur)
• advanced technical certificate (Fachhochschulreife)
• vocational further education qualifications recognized by the ministry (berufliche Qualifizierung)
• an assessment test for vocationally qualified persons without a school-based university entrance qualification (eg. Eignungsprüfung)

For an application you need your diploma (school/college), if necessary a language certificate, a copy of the identity card/passport. Additional documents may be required. Information on this can be found on the overview pages of the respective study program or at uni-assist/in the SSC applicant portal.

The Anhalt University of Applied Sciences, with its three locations in Bernburg, Dessau and Köthen, is not only connected as a university but also in its diversity of the academic education. At the "green" location in Bernburg, the focus is not only on nature and life, but also on economic aspects. The "creative" location in Dessau combines design, architecture and the construction and measurement of living space. Köthen, on the other hand, is the classic modern "engineering" location. By the way, the administrative heart of the Anhalt University of Applied Sciences also beats here.

After completing a first academic degree (eg. bachelor’s degree program, Magister, Staatsexamen, diploma), you can pursue a further course of study (second degree) at the same level.

Admission to the assessment procedure is open to those who:

1. Have at least a secondary school leaving certificate  or an equivalent qualification – earned in  Germany

and

2. have successfully completed at least two years of vocational training in a field qualifying for the respective course of study

and

3. have worked for at least three years in a profession qualifying for the respective course of study.
