Extracurricular activities
During the course of your studies, you will acquire a great deal of knowledge through lectures and the successful completion of your studies is a qualification that allows you to apply for employment. However, employers do not only pay attention to the degree, but also to certificates and practical experience that you have acquired through your voluntary commitment. The University of Duisburg-Essen offers you a wide range of opportunities that you can use to qualify for the job market in addition to your studies. Among other things, you will have the opportunity to obtain project management certificates or SAP certificates. Another possibility for further education is the start-up camp, where you will acquire various soft skills and develop innovative start-up ideas in student groups. The Institute for Optional Studies offers a wide variety of language courses and other supplementary courses. If you would like to put your theoretical knowledge into practice, you should take a look at the student consultancy act e.V..

Become an SAP expert during your studies
ES/4Students
The demand for university graduates with SAP skills is growing rapidly. An SAP certificate helps you to start a successful career because it sets you apart from other graduates and significantly increases your market value.
As a participant, you will not only learn the theory you need to pass the official SAP certification exam. You will also have the opportunity to work intensively on a real SAP system over the entire four months of the course and thus develop important practical skills in working with the system.
Institute for optional studies
During your studies you have to do some modules which are not part of your domain. The credits for "key and soft skills" can be gained by courses of the Institute for Optional Studies (IOS).
The IOS offers a lot of different courses. Important is to submit your application before the end of the application phase, which usually takes place some weeks before the semester start.
