DUAL PROGRAMME AT THE TECHNISCHE HOCHSCHULE INGOLSTADT

with ESG as a partner

STARTS OCTOBER 2022

ESG is a partner for the dual work-study programme in cybersecurity at the Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt (THI). This bachelor programme will begin each winter semester.

"The radical digitisation of our society offers vast opportunities to shape our future in a positive way. At the same time, we will only be able to transform these into specific beneficial products, services and methods if we can ensure their safety and security.

And to do so, we will need an increasing number of highly-trained specialists - in particular experts in cybersecurity. With our commitment as the sponsor of a new professorship and our cooperation with the THI, we want to not only strengthen our own up-and-coming talents at ESG but also to make a far-reaching visible contribution to both national and homeland security. At the same time, we are investing heavily in the sustainable expansion of our service portfolio as a reliable national technology and innovation partner for cyber and IT security."
Christoph Otten, CEO of ESG
