This on-campus Master's program in Industrial Engineering focuses on sustainability, integrating technical, economic, and environmental perspectives. It is designed for graduates with a relevant Bachelor's degree who wish to develop expertise in managing complex challenges at the intersection of technology, business, and sustainable development. The program aims to equip students with the skills needed for leadership roles in industries that require professionals capable of merging technical requirements with economic goals and sustainable strategies. The curriculum emphasizes both technical systems (digital automation, production automation, intelligent systems) and business management (corporate leadership, international management, strategic decision-making), with a strong focus on sustainability science and management. Students can specialize in either Sustainability Management or Sustainability Technology, allowing for a tailored learning experience. The program culminates in a Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) degree, preparing graduates for advanced roles in industry and sustainable business development.
The curriculum integrates technical, economic, and sustainability-related content. Students will delve into topics such as sustainability science, digital automation systems, production automation, corporate leadership, research and innovation, and intelligent systems. A key focus is on decision-making processes and sustainable change management, exploring how sustainability can be embedded in corporate strategies, organizational culture, communication, and technical decision-making. Students can choose to specialize in either Sustainability Management or Sustainability Technology. The program concludes with a Master's thesis addressing a scientific question related to technology, economics, and sustainability.
Graduates are prepared for demanding roles in industry, management, technology, and sustainable business development. The program equips students to take on complex tasks at the interface of technology, management, and sustainable corporate development.
The prior professional qualification study must be successfully completed. Individual assessment of foreign degrees and specific Bachelor's qualifications (e.g., Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Automation Technology) will be conducted by the university to determine comparability and potential need for additional competencies.
Monthly tuition is paid in 24 installments. An additional one-time examination fee of €985 applies. Students may be eligible to extend their studies free of charge for up to 4 semesters depending on the financing model. A discount is available for immediate payment.
