Preparation for your studies

Sandra Schaden had already completed an apprenticeship as a pharmaceutical commercial assistant when she decided to become a healthcare and nursing assistant.

She found out about the preparatory course at the Burgenland University of Applied Sciences through a counselling session at the Public Employment Service and obtained her university entrance qualification.

Doing the preparatory course before starting my bachelor's degree was a great opportunity for me. In just one year, I managed to get my university entrance qualification while working.

As the courses at the Pinkafeld study centre take place on Friday afternoons and Saturdays, she was able to work full-time on the side.

‘The most challenging thing for me was learning how to study again. The preparatory course was also a great start to my studies in this respect.’ She found it a great advantage to get to know the university before starting her studies by attending the preparatory course. ‘You are already networked, know some of the lecturers, know the building. That makes it easier to start studying.’

Sandra particularly enjoyed the practical sessions during her healthcare and nursing degree programme. These helped her to consolidate the theory and she now feels optimally prepared for her profession.

I can't say what I liked best about my degree programme. I was very enthusiastic about the range of subjects.
