FAQ

The module studies at FAU are modules from existing degree programs that have been combined to form a new, interdisciplinary study program. Students and professionals can expand their skills and sharpen their profile for their further academic or professional career through an additional qualification.

Confirmation of participation/ certificate of participation: Certificate after attending a university continuing education course without a degree (no proof of performance required).

Univ. certificate/ university certificate: Final document after the successful completion of a university continuing education course (one certificate required).

Joint certificate: Final document after the successful completion of several specific higher education courses (several certificates required).

If you decide to pursue a (continuing education) degree program (Bachelor’s, Master’s and modular studies), you must enroll at FAU. You can also attend certificate courses without enrolment.

The Master of Health Business Administration (MHBA), Master in Health and Medical Management (MHMM) and Sustainability Management (MBA) are distance learning courses. Some of the introductory courses and examinations take place on site in Nuremberg/ Erlangen.
