The study programme / profile
In order to meet challenges such as minimising resource and energy consumption as well as emissions to increase the sustainability of mobility concepts when starting a career, in-depth knowledge of the technical interrelationships in the following areas is required - in addition to comprehensive basic knowledge of the technical and physical interrelationships as taught as part of the Bachelor's degree course in Automotive Engineering or comparable technical courses: Drive technology (new drive technologies and drives with combustion engines), chassis technology and assistance systems, including the user interface. Simulation methods, as taught in the degree programme, play a major role in a wide variety of applications.
Contents and course of study
The Master's degree programme is offered as a full-time course and consists of three semesters: In the first semester, the basics from the first degree programme are deepened, advanced technical content is taught and initial methods in the field of supplier management are covered. In the second semester, new technical content and project management methods are taught to a greater extent on the basis of industry-related semester/project work. The Master's thesis is completed in the third semester. A total of 90 credit points in accordance with the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) are awarded for successful completion of the programme.
Prospects after graduation
The knowledge, skills and competences acquired in the technical field and in the area of project management, including supplier management, enable you to work as a technical specialist or as a manager, especially in the field of research and development of vehicles and work machines.
What can I do with it after my studies?Testimonials
Martin Schätzl, Master's graduate AuN
"The informal atmosphere and the close contact with lecturers and fellow students on the Master AuN programme was a cornerstone for my successful graduation. The cooperation with industry partners ensured a unique practical orientation and provided information on the latest issues in the automotive industry during the course of my studies. I recommend every enthusiast to deepen their skills through this Master's programme."
Werner Glück, 2nd semester
I chose the Master's programme in Landshut because of the seamless transition from the Bachelor's to the Master's, as the Bachelor's was too superficial for me. In addition, the relationship with the professors in the smaller student group is very relaxed and pleasant.
