The challenges of the 21st century call for supporting Continuing Engineering Education, a topic that is of increasing importance to universities worldwide. Furthermore, attracting new talents (women among others) into Engineering Education, is a key-element in contemporary higher education. Although the offer of studying programs alongside work has grown in recent years, there is still a need for research in context of accompanied studies and a lack of theory-based development in didactic concepts for learning professionals. This paper contributes to this research discourse and aims to generate new insights in a threefold way: (1) by specifying challenges and innovative approaches for accompanied studying programs in Business Engineering; (2) by explaining the theoretical framework for the methodical arrangement of exemplary engineering courses for non-traditional students; and (3) by describing first experiences with the concept during the development and implementation in selected engineering course. This paper also provides a new perspective on how to meet gender aspects. In this context, the influences of interdisciplinary orientation and student- centered course design were analyzed by using semi-structured interviews with female students.
