Educational mandateFH degree programmes offer vocational training and practice oriented courses at higher-education level. This means that the education offered qualifies the graduates for a profession, and the curricula of the courses are designed in such a way that the graduates will stand a reasonable chance of finding a job that matches their qualifications.
The basic concept for an FH degree programme has to describe the connection between the vocational fields of activity, the related qualification profile and the curriculum, which is a reflection of the qualification profile, and these connections have to be demonstrated in the teaching concept as well. The high priority given to teaching concepts in the FH sector is not least due to the fact that FH degree programmes have to put into practice the educational mandate of a practice-oriented vocational training at higher-education level subject to time constraints.
By putting the educational mandate of the Austrian FH degree programmes and Fachhochschulen in writing, the FH Council expresses its commitment to teaching the students skills that can be put to good use in the labour market. |
