Diplom-Verwaltungswirt (FH)

Last updated

The Diplom-Verwaltungswirt (FH) (abbreviated Dipl.-Verw. (FH)) degree is a Bachelor's level academic undergraduate degree that provides training in laws as well as public management in Germany. [1] [2] The academic degree is achieved within the framework of a dual study program (studies plus integrated practical blocks in a public authority) at a University of applied sciences (Fachhochschule or FH) for public administration. [3] This study is usually only available to appointed civil servants after a public selection procedure. [4] [5] The study program of 4 years is often compressed into 3 years by concentrated studies with no semester breaks. This degree is a combination of the Bachelor of Public Administration and the Bachelor of Laws with the focus on laws, public management and economics. [6] [7] Because of the Bologna Process this degree has been replaced in some German states by a bachelor's degree, though many still award it as a Diplom-Verwaltungswirt (FH). [8]

Overall, Germany is one of the best performing OECD countries in reading literacy, mathematics and sciences with the average student scoring 515 in the PISA Assessment Test, well above the OECD average of 497 points. Germany has a less competitive system, leading to low rates of bullying and students having a weak fear of failure but a high level of self-confidence and general happiness compared to other OECD countries like South Korea. Additionally, Germany has one of the largest percentage of top performers in reading among socio-economically advantaged students, ranking 3rd out of 76 OECD countries. This leads to Germany having one of the highest-educated labour forces among OECD countries.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Bundeswehr University Munich</span> German university

Bundeswehr University Munich is one of two research universities in Germany at federal level that both were founded in 1973 as part of the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr). Originally called Hochschule der Bundeswehr München the institution was supposed to offer civilian academic education for military officers. As an uncommon feature amongst German universities Universität der Bundeswehr München unifies a more theoretical research university division and a more practical-oriented College of Applied Sciences branch. Today, the university has an increasing number of civilian and international students. The academic year at the university is structured in "trimesters" and not the usual semester, to offer intensive studies with more credit points per year. Very capable students can therefore achieve a bachelor's and a master's degree within less than four years, while this would usually require five years. Universität der Bundeswehr München has well-established scientific research and forms part of two excellence clusters of the German government's university excellence initiative. Bundeswehr University is one of only very few campus universities in Germany.
