About the Program

Practical and Project-Centred Learning Our study programme directly leads to future professional practice. You will work in interdisciplinary teams to develop solutions together and across different disciplines. This will provide you with many skills that will give you a decisive advantage in your future career. Within your team, you will act independently and actively shape the progress of your team project. The ability to work in a team and communication are essential! You and your team will be in constant exchange. At any time, you can receive professional input from the professors and employees of the university as well as from the experts of our partner companies. Study Content At the beginning of your studies, you and your team will work on a product idea, which you will conceptually develop and refine over the course of two semesters. The six study modules represent a product development cycle that covers all theoretical and practical milestones from the conception phase and analysis of the framework conditions to technical implementation and virtual testing of a real prototype. This is what real practical relevance and consistent project centricity look like. We use methods of agile project management and human-centred product development. By teaching the essential study contents, you will ensure the implementation of your team's product ideas. Examples of these study contents include the following: sensors and actuators vehicle networking data processing artificial intelligence and human-machine interfaces In the third semester, you will apply your skills in your Master's thesis, which you will ideally work on together with a company.
