Becoming an engineer - more than just a job

German cars and machines are in demand worldwide. Our machinery and automotive industry is the world export champion and is chasing one production record after another. 150,000 engineers in Germany are the key to this success. They develop, design, manage production and bring "their" technology to the most distant places in the world.

Becoming an engineer - more than just a degree course

At the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Plastics Technology, you will lay a broad foundation for your professional career or an in-depth Master's degree. During your studies, theory, application and practice are optimally interlinked. Small group sizes contribute to your learning success through personal contact with your lecturers. Practical projects with industry partners, participation in research projects and student part-time jobs offer you initial insights into working as an engineer and the best opportunities for starting your career.

Studying engineering - more than just a specialization

The development of modern products and machines requires knowledge from various technical disciplines, each of which has its own course of study. Using the example of the manufacture of a plastic product, you will learn about the thematic differences between our degree courses in plastics technology, mechanical engineering and mechatronics.

Studying engineering - more than just a specialization

Being a female engineer - more than just a token woman

Women enrich teamwork and the development of technical products with new perspectives. At the same time, skilled workers are in demand and employers are increasingly committed to reconciling family and career. Fortunately, more and more women are studying engineering today. Are you too?
