      • With around 7,000 students, Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences (Hochschule Karlsruhe - HKA) is the second largest university of applied sciences in the German federal state of Baden-Württemberg (as of winter semester 2022/2023). It is a founding member of the Doctoral Association of Universities of Applied Sciences Baden-Württemberg established in 2022 and a member of the INGENIUM European University.


      Study Programs


      The study programs cover engineering, computer science and business management disciplines and lead to Bachelor's and Master's degrees. As the first professional qualification, the Bachelor's degree can be obtained after a standard period of study of seven semesters, the Master's degree after a further three semesters. These degrees were introduced at Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences in 1999 as part of the Bologna reform.
      Laboratory exercises, practical semesters and final theses, which are usually completed in industry, form part of the curricula. Research activities have been increasingly integrated into several degree courses since 2000, and some degree courses are considered research-oriented.


      Faculties


      Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences comprises the following six faculties:

      Architecture and Civil Engineering
      Electrical Engineering and Information Technology
      Computer Science and Business Information Systems
      Information Management and Media
      Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics
      Management Science and Engineering


      International contacts


      The university cooperates with around 180 partner universities world-wide. International contacts are managed centrally by the univertsity’s International Office. Semesters abroad are possible through exchange programs.
      Partnerships with foreign universities are also used to plan and carry out international research projects, and guest lecturers are invited to give lectures. The Bachelor's program Electrical Engineering and Information Technology and the Master's programs Sensor Systems Technology and Tricontinental Master in Global Studies are taught entirely in English, while the Master's program Geomatics is mainly taught in English. Together with partner universities in France and Switzerland, the trinational Bachelor's and Master's degree course in Civil Engineering is also offered, leading to a French and a Swiss university degree in addition to a German one. Numerous other international double or multiple degree programs at Bachelor's or Master's level are offered in cooperation with partner universities in Argentina, France, India, Canada, Malaysia, Scotland, Spain and Taiwan.
      The 4-semester ERASMUS Mundus Master's degree program Mechatronic and Micro-Mechatronic Systems (EU4M) started for the first time in the winter semester 2008/09 and takes place at three European universities in Spain, France and Germany. Students can deepen their knowledge of mechatronics and micro-mechatronics and learn the language and culture of the other countries.
      In 2023, HKA joined forces with nine partner universities in Bulgaria, Finland, France, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Romania, Sweden and Spain to form the "INGENIUM European University".


      Applied Research


      HKA receives the largest amount of third-party funding for research amongst the universities of applied sciences in the state of Baden-Württemberg. The focus is on application-oriented research and development projects. The expansion of practice-oriented research is a strategic goal of the university.
      In September 2019, the efeuAkademie was launched by the Institute for Energy Efficient Mobility. As part of the EU-funded flagship project efeuCampus[8], the efeuAkademie represents a communicative interface between the project partners and the general public. To this end, it offers regular information events and presents solutions on the topic of smart cities.
      In 2020, the Baden-Württemberg Institute for Sustainable Mobility was opened at HKA.
