Where else you can go

Routes many people do not think of straight away. Every statement names source and date; what is missing reads “not documented yet”.

  • Master's in Industrial Engineering (M.Sc.)

    You deepen engineering and business knowledge in a further degree. You shape your focus through an individual study programme.

    Why you fit

    Your Diplom (FH) is a first professional degree in industrial engineering, which is the subject basis a master's builds on.

    The route there

    Further training and exam
    The University of Kassel requires a bachelor's or Diplom-I degree in industrial engineering or a subject-equivalent degree, plus maths and statistics credits, for its M.Sc. The programme has no admission restriction.

    Your next step: Read the admission rules of the programme you like and ask the university whether your FH diploma counts as equivalent.

  • Doctorate after the FH diploma

    You research your own question for several years, for example on production or logistics. A university supervises you, often together with a professor from the university of applied sciences.

    Why you fit

    If production and logistics raise problems that only research can solve, this is a route. What matters is that you are seen as suited to the topic.

    Further training and exam
    The University of Erfurt in Thuringia opens the cooperative doctorate to graduates of universities of applied sciences if they are suited. Faculty doctoral regulations set the conditions. Admission runs through the Docata web portal.

  • Certified Business Manager (Master Professional)

    You take on tasks in corporate strategy, finance, and planning, steering and controlling business processes. The qualification ends with a project paper and an oral exam.

    Why you fit

    You bring technical knowledge from production and logistics and can deepen the business side with a chamber qualification.

    The route there

    Further training and exam
    According to IHK Bodensee-Oberschwaben, a business-studies degree and work experience related to a business manager's tasks suffice. There are five fields of action, followed by a project paper and an oral exam.

  • Safety engineer (occupational safety specialist)

    You advise the company on occupational safety and accident prevention in production and logistics, including hazards at machines and workplaces.

    Why you fit

    As an engineer you can become a safety engineer. Your grasp of production and logistics helps you assess plants and processes.

    The route there

    Further training and exam
    Under § 7 (1) ASiG a safety engineer must be entitled to use the title Ingenieur and have the safety-engineering expertise required for the tasks. The law does not say how that expertise is acquired.

  • Quality manager (IHK certificate)

    You set up, introduce and develop a quality management system, using statistics and quality assurance methods.

    Why you fit

    Quality and processes belong to production and logistics. The certificate makes this knowledge verifiable for others.

    The route there

    Further training and exam
    IHK Würzburg-Schweinfurt teaches statistics, quality assurance methods, total quality management and risk management. Requirements are the passed IHK certificate test for quality officers and minimum attendance. The award is an IHK certificate after a passed online test.

  • Certified logistics foreman (IHK)

    You take on technical, organisational and leadership tasks in logistics and help shape changes in methods and systems. The exam covers logistics processes, cost and controlling, and leadership and personnel.

    Why you fit

    If you want to lead in logistics, the exam covers process control, logistics controlling and people management. It sits at DQR level 6, not above your diploma.

    The route there

    Further training and exam
    IHK Region Stuttgart describes the exam in three parts: vocational-pedagogical qualifications under AEVO, basic qualifications and action-specific qualifications. The work experience should relate substantially to a logistics foreman's work.
