This Bachelor's degree program in Mechatronics provides a modern engineering education focused on Apparatus Technology and Medicine Technology, preparing graduates for the dynamic global job market. The interdisciplinary field of Mechatronics combines engineering and natural sciences to create intelligent, miniaturized components and machines by integrating mechanics, optics, electronics, and IT. The program aims to equip students with the skills to independently work in development, research, construction, production, marketing, and sales within mechatronics, optics, and medical technology fields. Graduates will gain a solid foundation in engineering and natural sciences, with the ability to design, project, construct, and mass-produce mechatronic products. Specializations in Apparatus Engineering or Medical Engineering are available from the fourth semester, allowing students to tailor their studies to their interests and career aspirations. The curriculum emphasizes a balance of theory and practical application, preparing students for both further academic study (like a Master's degree) and direct entry into professional careers.
Curriculum
The Mechatronics program is structured over seven semesters, including six semesters of academic study and one semester dedicated to an internship. The curriculum is designed around modules and adheres to the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS), with approximately 30 credit points per semester. Courses consist of lectures, exercises, laboratory work, projects, and seminars.
