Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences (FH Vorarlberg) – Mechatronics / Computer Science
Dornbirn, AustriaPOTENTIAL – not yet offered / not confirmed
✅ Good: English semester packages in Mechatronics (autumn) and Computer Science (autumn and spring)
Students from this partner already study with us. 4 students from Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences (FH Vorarlberg) came to the HMU Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering on Erasmus+ (2022/2023 to 2026/2027), so the two programmes already work together in one direction. This page looks at the other direction: what HMU Electrical & Computer Engineering students could take there.
English-taught programme: FHV offers English-language semester packages: BSc Mechatronics semester 5 (autumn), BSc Software and Information Engineering semester 5 (autumn) and BSc Computer Science – Digital Innovation semester 6 (spring, part-time, afternoon/evening, electives run only with at least 9 participants). Exchange students need B2 English; the 5th/6th semester computer science classes assume solid software engineering knowledge. Per-course teaching language is not stated individually on the Computer Science page. The English offer changes each year. Incoming exchange contact: exchange@fhv.at.
Potential matches only. No HMU Electrical & Computer Engineering student has studied at this partner yet, so there are no recognised courses. The matches below are an indicative assessment by the IRO, based on the partner’s published English programme vs the HMU Electrical & Computer Engineering study guide. They must be evaluated and approved by the departmental academic coordinator before any agreement is used.
