The main and only difference between Univ of Applied Science and a Normal University is that a Normal University is reasearch oriented and the courses there are very theoratical in nature.
whereas the University of applied science is Industry oriented and the courses there are more about practical implementation and application of technology in the Industry (less in theoretical depth and more practical).
Degree wise the highest degree one can earn at a University of app. Since is Masters, they
do not offer PHD degress as yet (this can change in future, beacuse the reserach in practical
application fields in becoming more and more evident in Germany). Since PHD is a research related
degree it is awarded by the Normal universities. However accorodin to German Law as a graduate from a
Univ. of applied science (FH) with a Diplom or Masters degree one is eligible to apply for a PHD at a
Normal University (provided that he fulfills the requirements like Good GPA, a Thesis on topic
relevant to the PHD and e.t.c)
