The high technology sector of astronautics with its extreme demands on materials and technology requires a high degree of interdisciplinary interlocking of the disciplines of mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology in order to achieve high-level goals, such as a manned mission to Mars or the expansion of the commercial satellite network. The degree course takes an interdisciplinary approach, bridging physics and electrical engineering, and is offered in cooperation with Mittelhessen Technical University of Applied Sciences.

As a student of the degree programme, you will acquire
- in-depth knowledge of the subject matter and methodology through an interdisciplinary education in the two core subjects of physics and electrical engineering;
- specialist knowledge that enables you to independently identify current challenges in physical-technical technologies in the field of space travel, e.g. on satellites, and to develop specific solutions;
- in-depth theoretical and/or practical knowledge in electives;
- additional skills that allow you to develop your career prospects in the interdisciplinary field of space travel.
