Study on the weekend | GoVersity

If you study part-time on the weekend, you work in your job from Monday to Friday and study on selected Saturdays or weekends. This may sound like a lot of stress at first, but this model offers you a lot of advantages.

**What are the advantages of studying on the weekend?

The fact that you are interested in studying part-time on the weekend means that it is important to you to combine theory and practice. At the same time, you have full financial security and are still fully operational in your job. This gives you a competitive advantage on the job market with a higher educational qualification and sound practical experience. In addition, the scientific approach you learn during your studies will enable you to tackle problems in a more structured way at work in the future. You learn to critically reflect on different views on a topic, which in turn benefits you in your daily work.

All the advantages at a glance:

  • Immediate implementation of theory in practice
  • Full financial security
  • Fully operational on the job
  • Competitive advantages on the labor market
  • Organizational skills, stress resistance, discipline and the willingness to learn new things as skills for employers
  • Personal development
  • Strengthen your analytical skills
  • Building a network with valuable contacts
  • Gain professional experience
  • Increasing work performance through new skills
  • Contribution to the active development of your employer
  • Opportunity to write a thesis in the company and thereby solve a real challenge
  • Qualification for a more senior position in the company
  • Higher chances of being considered for a promotion

Are there any disadvantages to studying on the weekend?

In addition to all these advantages, you should also be aware of some disadvantages. Of course, studying alongside your job involves an additional workload. In addition, not all degree courses can be completed while working, for example those that focus on numerous practical exercises or projects. If you have already completed an apprenticeship, financial support through BAföG is not possible. As you don’t spend as much time with your fellow students as you would if you were studying full-time, the bond within the group is weaker than if you were at the university every day.

Advantages outweigh the disadvantages

But despite these disadvantages, studying part-time on the weekend is definitely worthwhile, because you don’t study every weekend, but only on a few selected weekends during the semester. In the phase in which you are writing your thesis and no longer have any lectures, you can organize your time freely anyway and are hardly bound by deadlines. Your chances on the job market are always much better with a degree. And you only have this increased workload for a limited time. Another very positive aspect is that you can go out with your fellow students straight after lectures and have fond memories of your studies.
