Programme content
Broad specialist knowledge and individual profile development - the degree programme offers all possibilities!
The content of the degree programme is very wide-ranging and provides extensive specialist knowledge and skills in important engineering sciences and business administration as well as the integration of these two areas of education. The programme also covers the basics of computer science, mathematics and natural sciences.
The extensive range of compulsory elective modules also offers students many options as to whether and in which area they would like to specialise their knowledge and profile. Possible specialisations include energy and sustainability, project management, electrical engineering or production and logistics.
The content of the degree programme focuses in particular on sustainable management. In this context, we offer the additional educational certificate in Sustainable Development .
Study programme
The Bachelor's degree programme has a modular structure. It comprises six theoretical semesters with lectures and laboratory practicals as well as a practical semester. A total of 210 ECTS credits are earned.
The modules in the 1st and 2nd semesters teach technical and business fundamentals, while the 3rd and 4th semesters serve to deepen the knowledge already acquired through advanced modules.
The 5th semester is the practical semester. It comprises at least 80 working days in an industrial company and can be completed in Germany or abroad.
The specialisation programme begins in the 6th semester, in which students can deepen their knowledge according to their individual interests and/or specific specialisations. The specialisation modules are selected with 10 ECTS credits each from the module groups "Technology" and "Business Administration" and 15 ECTS credits from the module group "Integration". A further 10 ECTS credits can be freely selected from the module groups.
The Bachelor's thesis is also completed during the specialisation programme, which usually takes 2 months and is assessed with 12 ECTS credits.

Practical orientation
All degree programmes at the Faculty of Electrical and Industrial Engineering are characterised by a high degree of practical and application orientation.
In addition to the theoretical lectures, many of the modules on offer include laboratory practicals with specific content. In these, the theoretical knowledge acquired is tested, expanded and consolidated in practice in our more than 20 modern laboratories. Project work also serves to creatively and practically implement what has been learnt.
In the 5th semester, students also complete a practical semester of at least 80 working days in a company of their choice in Germany or abroad.
