After successfully completing a Bachelor's degree in Photonics, graduates find employment primarily in the field of light and laser technology, for example in LED lighting technology, ophthalmology, materials processing or medical applications. However, they can also work in optotechnology and image processing, optical device applications and optoelectronics.

The Bachelor's degree course in Laser Technology (BA Photonics) can be completed as a full-time course with 3.5 days of lessons per week or as a part-time course with only 2 days of lessons per week.

During the Bachelor's degree course in Photonics, students acquire basic and in-depth knowledge of photonics, which is consolidated through laboratory experiments. In addition to knowledge of physics, electrical engineering and electronics, computer science, analysis, design, signal processing, linear algebra and control engineering, in-depth specialist skills in infrared technology, optics, optical measurement technology, optoelectronics, optical sensor technology and optical systems, laser technology, image processing, production development and technology, lighting and illumination technology, display and camera technology, mathematics and materials for electronics and optics are also taught. In addition, students focus on two main areas during their studies, such as optical design, circuit realization, construction, 3D image processing, optical metrology and lasers and materials. There are also modules on management and business administration.

A Federal Vocational Baccalaureate in Engineering, Architecture or Life Science with a technical apprenticeship, for example as a computer scientist, micromechanic, telematics technician, network electrician, automation technician, multimedia electronics technician, electrical draughtsman, production mechanic, polymechanic, plastics technologist or in comparable technical professions are also possible qualifications, as are a Federal Vocational Baccalaureate or Specialized Baccalaureate and relevant professional experience of at least one year or, for part-time students, an integrated study internship. The Universities will inform you about the admission requirements and possible degrees (contact form).

Graduates of a degree course in the field of laser technology are awarded the degree "Bachelor of Science FHO in Photonics".
