It is the time spent in the company that makes the dual study program unique. At Basler, we train needs-based. In addition to the target department, there are of course also assignments in various departments. The aim is to get to know the working methods of the interface departments. In this way you learn to look at problems from a wide variety of perspectives and to develop suitable solutions. You will present your results confidently and competently in front of your team or externally, e.g. B. can present in front of customers and suppliers.
Over the entire period you will get to know different cultures, as well as communicate and act internationally. During your training you will pass through the following departments, among others:
New Business Development
New Business Development

When selecting the areas of application, we also take your individual wishes into account.
Studies at the Nordakademie in Elmshorn
Studying at the Nordakademie differs from other universities primarily in that the cohorts are small and the professors with practical experience have enough time to respond to your questions. Networking among fellow students is also easier this way. This course offers you an intensive learning experience through small working groups, very modern equipment, an e-learning platform and 24-hour access to the learning buildings.
Your studies are divided into 7 semesters. Each semester includes a practice phase of 13 weeks and a theory phase of 10 weeks, during which you also take your exams.
In industrial engineering, you can expect the following subjects, among others:
Business Administration
Mathematics and physics
Marketing
Mechanics
Process management

Jana Richter – Industrial Engineering
Why industrial engineering
During my time at school, I enjoyed many different subjects, including physics and math. But it was hard for me to imagine studying something solely technical.
Therefore, industrial engineering was the perfect choice for me, because the program is very broad and you get to know many fields during your studies and can flexibly choose a field depending on your interests and set your focus there.
And why was it important to you to study dual studies?
For me, it was important to have a practical part after 13 years of theoretical instruction only. I need to have a real link to the theoretical basics. This is something I lacked in straightforward university courses.
After three years of study and the first few years of professional experience, I have to say that the decision was spot on. In the practical phases, I was able to personally learn a lot and take it with me, not only in terms of the technical basics, but also in terms of corporate culture and cooperation in a company. No “real” course of study can convey these two experiences.
And why was it important for you to take a combined work-study approach at Basler?
Basler convinced me from the very first interview. I was in other application rounds before Basler, and they were always very cold and impersonal. A friendly and warm atmosphere was immediately present at Basler. In addition, as a technology-oriented medium-sized company, Basler offers a wide range of possibilities.
What did your path look like after studying at Basler?
After graduating in 2016, I started in strategic project purchasing at Basler and have since successfully completed several development projects on the purchasing side. For me, project purchasing is particularly interesting because, in addition to purchasing issues, you are also part of the individual development projects and teams and are therefore responsible for a wide range of exciting topics.
