Design and Development for Mechanical and Automotive Engineering

Advertisement

State-of-the-art simultaneous engineering requires modern engineers with a networked knowledge in the core and intersection areas of design, development, simulation and production technology. Furthermore, engineers need the ability to communicate and act confidently in the international / intercultural environment of modern industry. The MEng in Design and Development in Automotive and Mechanical Engineering at the Esslingen University of Applied Sciences focuses on these requirements.

The learning approach in the master's program is both international and interdisciplinary. Interacting in teams of different cultures, languages and disciplines, students create new sources of synergy and productivity and at the same time acquire new skills. Here, all faculties of business and engineering work side by side to share knowledge and achieve common goals.

The study program begins in September of each year: a master's degree can be achieved after the standard study period of three semesters (1,5 years). The language of instruction in all lectures is English.

Career perspectives
"Some companies have collaborations with universities and some have their own education centers... they make the students ready for the job and they accept these students rather than students who are from outside. In this point appears the importance of the internship... I want to thank Hochschule Esslingen for supporting internships and provide facilities the students to shape their future in a good direction."
