New FITech courses in green transition in spring 2025

With the new funding, FITech will offer courses for adult learners on water supply systems and industrial wood construction

The studies are particularly well-suited for individuals who work in expert or managerial positions in fields related to wood construction and water supply systems, or who are interested in expanding their expertise in these areas.

Please check the course prerequisites before applying. A higher education degree in engineering usually provides suitable qualifications for completing the courses.

The first courses will start in January, so apply now and secure your spot! Further information about the contents, schedules, and applying can be found on the course pages. More courses will be published later.
