You can start a Master's degree program with us with a Bachelor's degree in engineering with 210 ECTS credits or with a preparatory semester if you have completed your Bachelor's degree with 180 ECTS credits.
The application period is from December 1 to February 15 for the following summer semester and from May 15 to August 31 for the following winter semester.
All degree programs in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering are without admission restrictions (no numerus clausus).
Propaedeutic pre-semester in which you can acquire the 30 ECTS points you are still missing. You can choose from a variety of subjects to supplement your specialist knowledge.
Intensive specialist studies in your chosen specialization Sustainable Production Technologies or Lightweight Construction and Design Engineering.
Semester in which you write your Master's thesis - either at the university or in an industrial company. Final defense to obtain the academic degree "Master of Engineering".
In the Sustainable Production Technologies specialization, you will learn about the methods and manufacturing processes required for the industrial production of goods. You will deal with the economic production of components, for example with digitally networked cutting machines and innovative robot technology using the possibilities of Industry 4.0. As a graduate, you will be able to innovatively design and improve production processes and logistics systems for the manufacture of components.
The following scientific content is taught during the course:
In the Lightweight Construction and Design Engineering specialization, you will learn application-oriented production processes, materials and design methods for modern lightweight construction and plastic components, for example for the automotive, mechanical engineering and aviation industries. You will discover new technical possibilities that can be implemented with sustainable plastics and high-performance composites. As a graduate, you will be familiar with the typical plastics processes - from injection molding to 3D printing - and will be able to design, calculate and manufacture highly resilient carbon fiber components.
