Career Perspectives
Experts for consulting, planning and
implementation
The degree Applied Wood Technology is conceived as
a career qualifying bachelor degree in cooperation with
the Chamber of Commerce and enterprises from the
wood industry with many promising career prospects.
The close cooperation with companies guarantees
a job-market orientated and close to practice based
education, while simultaneously being aligned with the
current state of research.
The wood manufacturing and wood processing industries, trading, planning, consulting and advising services
offer an abundance of jobs to the graduates of the degree. Further career fields are available in organizations
and non-governmental organizations both nationally
and internationally.
Should an internship company be carefully chosen, this
often represents an easier step in the direction towards
a professional career.

The degree is a multifaceted basis for attaining a further
qualification through masters study programmes. Attractive choices for this are available at the universities
in Freiburg and Hamburg, as well as the TU Dresden.
The deliberately international oriented degree also
enables the accomplishment of a further qualification
abroad. In the basic study period, there are foreign
language courses offered at the University of Applied
Sciences Rottenburg for this purpose.
