Hydrogen Engineering
New bachelor’s degree program at the UAS Technikum Wien: Start of studies in 2024/25.
The application deadline for applicants within the EU is May 31, 2025, for applicants outside the EU March 31, 2025.
The dual study program for hydrogen technology specialists
Hydrogen is a key energy source for phasing out fossil fuels. Many new technologies are leading to the development of ever broader application areas for hydrogen technologies – mobility, mechanical engineering, energy storage and energy transport are some of them. The course provides an overview of the technologies used along the entire value chain: generation, transport and storage, and energy conversion equipment.
Background
Our new hydrogen bachelor program will start in the winter semester 2024/25 and will be offered as a dual degree program. The application takes place exclusively at the UAS Technikum Wien. The first two semesters of the program are completed at the FHTW, during which time the application phase begins at one of the available partner companies. From the 3rd semester onwards, the studies take place alternately in practical phases at the company and at the UAS Technikum Wien.

Career Prospects
Graduates have knowledge in the fields of energy technology and plant engineering in hydrogen technologies or knowledge in the cross-sectional subject of renewable energies. Accordingly, the career prospects of graduates of the hydrogen technology program are good. With their interdisciplinary knowledge, they can work in various industries such as energy supply, mechanical engineering or wholesale. They work, for example, as energy consultants, control engineers or production managers. Typical tasks include plant planning in the field of hydrogen technology, interface planning in energy, building and construction technology or the planning of energy networks.
Internationalization
Starting in 2022/23, internationalization will play an important role for students at UAS Technikum Wien and will become a fixed component of every curriculum. The possibilities are diverse and adapted to the different circumstances of the students: from excursions lasting several days to semesters abroad, from acting as an International Buddy for others to writing the Bachelor thesis in English. All bachelor students complete at least 5 ECTS from a wide range of measures.
