The study goal and motto of the Bachelor's degree in real estate and facility management is the recognition and establishment of connections between technical and business aspects regarding real estate. Students of this course work at interfaces between technical and economic questions and thus on tasks that can be described as management tasks.

Studies
study content
The studies as an industrial engineer combines content from the disciplines of engineering and business management and focuses on the topic of real estate. At the same time, content is taught that link these two disciplines (so -called integrative modules).
The course is very practice-oriented: The theoretical content of the courses is put directly into practice in laboratories and through case studies. A practical phase followed by a bachelor's thesis also makes the transition to work easier for the students.
The graduate: Inside the real estate and facility management course:
- Record and explain facts on an engineering and economic basis. You have acquired a clear understanding and broad knowledge of the building cycle and real estate and facility management.
- On an engineering and economic basis, complex facts about technical, ecological and economic buildings, as well as building portfolios record, explain and assess and develop independent new ideas and concepts in a solution-oriented manner.
- Communicate professionally, work together in interdisciplinary teams and include various perspectives. You are aware of organizational psychological relationships and you can record and derive them.
- Evaluate and estimate the interactions of technical and socio -economic problems. You can create the references between these interactions and can develop solutions with these skills. You know the framework and scope of your professional action and reflect on your decisions.

focal points
facility management
Facility management is regarded as the strategic management discipline of the future. It deals with the optimization of the secondary processes, whereby the focus here is on the real estate. This focus is about solving engineering, economic and legal tasks with regard to real estate and other secondary processes. The team and leadership skills of the students are encouraged. It is an interdisciplinary and holistic study concept.
As a study goal, a cross -subject holistic concept is sought, which includes the solution of engineering, economic and legal tasks in building management. In addition to well-founded technical and business training, great emphasis is placed on team and management skills. Specializations, e.g. B. on plant operation or the management of public buildings are possible. The graduates of the real estate and facility management course with a focus on facility management:
- Derive and implement strategies for building management,
- Control real estate using suitable controlling instruments,
- Develop interdisciplinary approaches to optimize secondary processes,
- make a positive contribution to the entire value chain,
- map and optimize the facility processes within the building cycle using suitable simulation programmes.
The specific courses of the focus are listed below.
Technical asset management
Technical asset managers support the optimization of real estate portfolios and ensure that assets are distributed across different risk and asset classes. They are able to evaluate real estate and to assess whether the usage concept of a property is appropriate. Graduates of this course analyze e.g. B. economic relationships and transfer the results to a building portfolio from the point of view of return and risk.
You develop investment and divestment strategies for building stocks, formulate investor strategies and implement them with the help of suitable sub-goals. In short: you harmonize economic, technical and legal issues.
The focus of the focus of technical asset management is to support in the optimization of property portfolios and to ensure that the assets are distributed to different risk and investment classes. Technical asset management supports the compilation of the property portfolio. Furthermore, it is able to evaluate and assess real estate whether the usage concept of a property is useful. The graduates of the real estate and facility management course with a focus on technical asset management:
- analyze economic relationships and transferred to a building portfolio from return and risk considerations,
- Develop investment and disinvestment strategies for building stands,
- Formulate strategies of the investor and implement them by means of suitable sub -goals,
- classify a building portfolio from a risk point of view,
- bring about economic, ecological, technical and legal facts.
The specific courses of the focus are listed below.
particularities
Learning property
With the learning property, the students should be able to obtain a higher practical relevance on the one hand and to illustrate the interdisciplinarity and thematic links of the course. Based on various on site, the students will expand objects of technical and methodological skills, but of course also their social and self-competence. As part of these areas of competence, they learn to organize and design, formulate and present, illustrate and calculate, analyze and criticize, and criticize, and to examine and examine it. These on site objects will also be accessible in VR by our VR laboratory, in order to allow students to access the objects as part of their studies - outside of excursions. The Learning property is not shown as an independent module, but also serves the students, the teachers but also the cooperation partner as a practical bridge between our HAW and the professional world. We are happy to be able to work with the Eberbach monastery here.
job prospects
perspectives
The main fields of use of facility management lie in the provision of needs-based areas as well as their optimization and administration, in the provision and securing of infrastructure systems, the development of efficient management concepts and the use of the use of efficient information and communication techniques.
The main fields of deployment of the focus on technical asset management are in the real estate industry in the areas of management of real estate funds, project management as well as in real estate financing, development, management and marketing.
Study variants
Dual study variant (IS+I)
The dual study variant (IS+I) has the study goal of conveying the competence goals to the students and scientifically accompanying the transfer of what has been learned to professional practice at the university. Through the cooperation partner of the dual study variant (IS+I) planned dual practice phases, the students are to be prepared for professional life in particular. During the lecture period, the students attend the modules of the course in accordance with the examination regulations. In the lecture -free period, they provide part of their self -study in the company of the cooperation partner. This enables the content to be transferred directly to the practice in the company of the cooperation partner.
We offer it
- A demanding and future -proof training
- A basic financial security over the entire duration of studies
- a safe entry into professional life
- through upstream bridge courses, a study-accompanying tutor and mentoring programme as well as the equalization of the exam density for good conditions for an above-average study success.
You can find all further information on the Page of the dual study models.
