About the Program

Your motivation You want to combine technical understanding with economic know-how. The demand for economically minded and technically qualified experts is increasing. You want to meet this demand. Technical systems fascinate you just as much as generalist economic knowledge. You want to immerse yourself in both worlds and understand them from the ground up. In this degree programme, you will learn to combine the best of both: you will combine technical and scientific aspects with economic and legal aspects. Your outlook You will become an interdisciplinary specialist in industrial, trade, and service companies. Germany stands for quality and innovation, but even innovation is in a constant state of transition. In the past, we encountered innovation primarily in the area of technology or product development. Today, we increasingly find innovation in customer experience, in processes and services, or in the development of business models. This makes it more difficult to effectively bring together different fields of competence. As an industrial engineer, you will act at the interface between technology and business. Your degree programme will prepare you for this challenging task. You will acquire a broad understanding of both disciplines and learn to mediate between them. You will become an expert who optimises operational processes while keeping an eye on technical processes as well as productivity and economic efficiency. Programme content & competencies Sharpen your profile with our specialisation in production and manufacturing. In this degree programme, you will deal with mathematical and scientific fundamentals, acquire relevant management knowledge, and also benefit from our lectures in English. The components of our degree programme are engineering, economics, management, and targeted expert knowledge. For this knowledge, you can take one future-oriented specialisation*: Production and manufacturing technologies: You will become an expert in production technology and factory equipment. *More specialisations to come With our strong practical focus, we will prepare you for your professional life. A variety of optional accompanying events will help you to further develop your skills in an application-oriented context. In our Smart Labs and mobile laboratory systems, you will experience possible applications of digital technology. Our simulated acquisition interviews reflect everyday working life.
