A warm welcome to the Taxation programme!

• To apply for a dual study programme, there must be an existing cooperation agreement between the firm and the university. There are essentially two options:

  1. You bring your ‘own’ work placement partner with you

  Have you already found an employer, or have you completed an internship whilst studying, and would you like to undertake the dual study programme with this firm? If so, you should convince your employer of the benefits of our study model and recommend this website to them for further information. The firm will then contact the relevant programme coordinator and the cooperation discussions will be finalised. Once the cooperation agreement has been finalised, the student negotiates their employment contract, after which they apply for a place on the programme at Worms University of Applied Sciences. Please note the deadlines below!

  2. You apply to an existing practice partner

  If you do not ‘already have’ your own practice partner, some of our practice partners also offer vacancies. If you are interested in this option, simply get in touch with us. Please also note that an additional application to the university is required.

  Please note the following in both cases:

  • Once the cooperation agreement has been finalised or confirmation has been received from the cooperation partner, you must submit an application to Worms University of Applied Sciences.
  • This application for a dual study place is generally made via the application for admission to the Student Services department at Worms University of Applied Sciences, stating “Co-operation agreement in place”.
  • Please note that drawing up the cooperation agreement with the industry partner may take some time and that the agreement must be in place by the end of July or the end of January at the latest.
  • Submission of the cooperation agreement by the university’s application deadline is a prerequisite for applying for the dual study programme.
  • Application deadline for the winter semester: 31 August
    Application deadline for the summer semester: 28 February
    The dates stated are strict deadlines (date of receipt by the university!), i.e. applications received after these dates cannot be considered.

  Please ensure you read our entry requirements carefully! In our FAQs, you will find a checklist to help you determine whether your Bachelor’s degree meets our entry requirements.

  The admissions process for dual study programmes is generally handled by the Student Services department at Worms University of Applied Sciences. Please direct any questions regarding the admissions process and your application to them. Student Services is responsible for the admissions process for all degree programmes at Worms University of Applied Sciences.

Has your trainee convinced you of the merits of our study programme? Would you like to enrol a Bachelor’s graduate on a dual Master’s programme? Or would you like to involve your practice as a partner of Worms University of Applied Sciences? If so, we would be delighted to get to know you as a practice partner. As cooperation partners, we welcome large, international consultancy and audit firms just as much as smaller law firms and companies with their own tax departments.

To make initial contact, please email Claudia Maaß at maass@hs-worms.de. Please submit the partnership agreement approximately four weeks before the university’s application deadline, i.e. by the end of July or the end of January.

Here you will find our current job vacancies. You are also welcome to submit a speculative application to practice partners with whom we already have a cooperation agreement.
