Mechanical Engineering

The degree programme has a strong focus on applied engineering with practical experience. Students are required to complete an internship before their studies in order to obtain practical competence and a methodical approach. During the first three semesters, students focus on basic sciences and engineering courses. Starting in the fourth semester, students are in their advanced studies, which focus on a specialisation. In the sixth semester, each student conducts the research for a practical project or chooses three elective modules.
