Types of Courses

Höhere Technische Lehranstalten generally offer three different types of courses:

• Fachschule courses last for four years and start after compulsory education

  , which ends in Austria with grade 9 so students are 15 years old and over when they enter HTL. After four years, students have to complete a Technikerarbeit, a final examination project and then pass the final examinations to graduate from HTL. Students can also attend the examinations for the Berufsreifeprüfung, but these examinations are voluntary. The Berufsreifeprüfung formally enables students to attend university, but they are limited to a specified range of majors.
• The so called Höhere Abteilung offer the most common type of courses at Austrian HTLs. It is possible to start this type of course after compulsory education or to complete grade 9 in HTL. However, in both cases the actual course starts after completing grade 9 and lasts for five years. This type of education has a number of similarities to japan

  ese colleges of technology (Kosen). After five years, students may complete the school via a Diplomarbeit, a final examination project - similar to a Technikerarbeit but at higher level - or via a Klausurwoche (a week with one nine hour long, practical test each day). After that a student has to pass one written test in mathematics and one in a language (German or English) and the final oral examinations to graduate. The examinations are called Diplom- und Reifeprüfung since the Austrian Reifeprüfung (Matura
