Special features regarding teaching in the bachelor's degree programme
The Bachelor's degree courses lead to a professionally qualifying academic degree. A very broad and practice-oriented foundation is laid. Almost all lectures are accompanied by practicals. The degree course is well recognised in companies and graduates are highly sought after.
Special features regarding teaching in the master's programmes
Development and research tasks as well as management activities are the target areas for graduates of the Master's degree programmes. A large number of third-party-funded research projects in the fields of automotive engineering, renewable energies, laser measurement technology, plastics processing and material testing methods testify to a high level of innovation and offer students interesting project work. In addition, there are very good industry contacts, which are helpful in terms of potential employers later on.
