In the master's program Mechatronic Engineering, comprehensive expertise and competencies in the field of mechatronics are combined. The focus lies on a thorough deepening of methodological tools and the acquisition of practice-oriented specialized knowledge. Furthermore, special emphasis is placed on fostering independent work and interdisciplinary thinking.

The three-semester program is divided into a deepening phase (2 semesters) and concludes with a final thesis, which spans the last semester. It builds upon the foundational knowledge acquired in a bachelor's degree program and includes specialized lectures in the field of mechatronics.

In the first semester, project work is offered alongside the lectures. Alternatively, students have the option to participate in a single, larger, practice-oriented project.
In the second semester, further specialization takes place, with the interdisciplinary aspect being promoted through the free choice of subjects from neighboring faculties. Additionally, a master’s project is planned, which contributes to the scientific character of a master’s degree program.

The master's thesis in the third semester marks the completion of the program and serves two purposes: facilitating entry into professional life and fostering scientific and methodological skills as preparation for a postgraduate program.

This master’s program qualifies you for demanding roles in the field of mechatronics, whether in operational or strategic management, technical or scientific specialization.

With this master’s degree, you will be prepared for careers in areas such as product development, system integration, project management, production planning, and service. Opportunities are available in large corporations, small and medium-sized enterprises, start-ups, and research institutions.
