Time Model
Full-Time (FT)
At MCI, full-time is the traditional mode of study. Lectures and seminars are held on weekdays. Condensed teaching units give students the opportunity to deepen their knowledge of individual subjects.
Part-Time (PT)
Many study programs offered at MCI are also available in part-time. Part-time programs are structured in such a way as to enable students to combine a full-time job with intensive study. In both content and scope a part-time program corresponds to a full-time course of study. Lectures and seminars are usually held in a condensed form on Fridays (usually from 1 to 10 p.m.) and Saturdays (from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
Blended Learning
Several MCI study programs are based on blended learning. This allows to complement the flexibility of online distance learning by personal interaction and supervision. Synchronous and asynchronous online sessions are combined with on-campus lectures. This mode of study includes web conferences, webcasts, podcasts, videos, social media tools, and other innovative formats. These enable students to study while pursuing their careers.
Dual
The Smart Building Technologies program is offered in dual form, meaning that students complete both a study phase at MCI and a practical phase at a partner company during each semester. This way, theory and practice are continuously integrated, allowing students to gain relevant professional experience during their studies. The employment relationship with the company is maintained throughout the entire duration of the program, providing students with year-round practical exposure.
