1/15/2026Pre-study internship Before starting your studies, you will complete an eight-week internship in a company. Here you will learn basic manual skills in metal processing and gain insights into the various production methods and work processes. This will give you a first “feeling” for industrial processes, which will help you to better understand the theoretical content of the degree programme. Fundamentals In the first semesters, we teach basic subjects from mathematics, natural sciences, engineering and information technology, for example linear algebra, digital tools, engineering mechanics and construction technology. Interdisciplinary electives and project work Interdisciplinary studies help you to think outside the box and to underpin your specialised knowledge with important additional qualifications for your professional life (e.g. by taking a specialised English course). The focus is on developing your soft skills by learning, for example, how to give presentations, how to work in a team or how to manage a project. The project work is a group work in which you prepare a topic from a theoretical point of view and present it at the end of the semester. By working on a bigger task, you train your skills to develop and present independent concepts, to define clear goals and to work out interdisciplinary approaches to solutions. Specialisation Until the end of the third semester, the contents of the study programme are the same for all students. From the fourth semester onwards, you set individual focal points and decide on one of the following six specialisations: Energy and Process Engineering Automotive Engineering and Mobile Systems Aerospace Engineering Material Sciences Mechatronics Production and Systems Engineering The modules you choose in these areas are individually tailored to your specialisation. In some modules, you will do laboratory work, in which you will also be able to apply the course content in practice. If you do not want to choose a specific specialisation, you can also study “General Mechanical Engineering” and get to know the entire range of mechanical engineering subjects. Internship You will gain valuable professional experience during a ten-week engineering internship. In a company of your own choice, you will deepen your theoretical knowledge acquired during your studies in a practical setting and get to know state-of-the-art technologies and current challenges in business organisation. You will benefit from hands-on experience of everyday working life and will gain insight into a specific corporate culture, enabling you to develop targeted career prospects and establish your first professional contacts. Bachelor's thesis The Bachelor’s thesis is the final project of your studies and your first scientific paper. In addition to your written work, you will give a final presentation to an expert audience. Over the course of several months, you will work intensively on a topic of your own choice and show that you have learnt to deal with specialist literature, to research and analyse independently and that you can present the results of your work logically and in a scientific manner. You can also write your Bachelor’s thesis in a company if there are related research cooperations at your supervising institute.
