Study program Automotive Engineering Master

In four semesters, the Automotive Development (M.Sc.) course imparts a broad knowledge of automotive engineering for activities in all areas of modern vehicle development.

Students acquire in-depth knowledge in the main areas of vehicle development.

This includes engine development and drive technology as well as chassis development including the mechatronic components of chassis control, body development with a special focus on vehicle safety and hybrid design. The in-depth engineering fundamentals, which are supplemented by the use of modern simulation tools, also play an important role.

Further focal points are

Vehicle electrics and vehicle electronics,
vehicle acoustics,
aerodynamics,
reliability and durability and
production engineering.

The course is rounded off by teaching leadership skills and team qualifications as well as social topics, some of which are taught in English.
