Bachelor’s, Master’s or vocational training?

Apprentices at the university

Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg, University of Applied Sciences offers the entire spectrum of higher education degrees, including Bachelor’s, Master’s and doctoral degrees. However, it is also an attractive place of learning for those who opt for a classic apprenticeship. Seven young people started their first year of training at H-BRS at the beginning of August 2022. The new apprentices were warmly welcomed in various departments. As biology and chemistry lab technicians, in office management and in the library, but also as IT specialists, the committed young professionals bring fresh ideas and new perspectives to the university team.

The fact that vocational training at H-BRS is worthwhile is shown time and again by the outstanding qualifications achieved. Like Sura Tat’s, for instance – she completed an apprenticeship as a chemistry lab technician and gained deep insights into the analytical and inorganic fields. The Bonn/Rhein-Sieg Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK) honoured her as best of class in her apprenticeship year. “With our very practice-oriented apprenticeships, we want to give young people a good start in their careers. They receive a good basis for their professional career here,” says vocational training coordinator Nina Schug, who is looking forward to receiving applications for the coming years as well.

Five classic apprenticeship occupations

Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg offers five classic apprenticeships alongside its degree programmes. Young people can obtain their vocational qualifications here as biology lab technicians, chemistry lab technicians, office management assistants, media and information services specialists and IT specialists. Currently, 17 women and men are undergoing training at the Sankt Augustin and Rheinbach campuses.
