Emergence

The designations of Diplom-HTL-Ingenieur or Diplom-HLFL-Ingenieur (short name Dipl.-HTL-Ing./Dipl.-HLFL-Ing.) Were temporarily introduced with the establishment of universities of applied sciences in Austria since 1994 in order to allow those who were already working To offer HTL engineers an opportunity for post-qualification. As early as 1994, the law was limited in time so that the designation can only be awarded if the award is requested before January 1, 2007 and all examinations are taken by December 31, 2008. The Federal Ministry responsible for economics and the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry were responsible for awarding the designation, in each case in cooperation with the Ministry of Science and the Ministry of Education. This is not an academic degree.

Abolition of the designation

Since January 1, 2007, HTL graduates with professional experience have been given the status of "engineer" or "engineer". Admission to the final examination before a committee to obtain the designation “Diplom-HTL-Ingenieur” and “Diplom-HLFL-Ingenieur” can no longer be applied for. However, degrees that have already been awarded remain valid.
