Do you want to make a difference? Shape the future?

Immerse yourself in the exciting world of engineering and project management! This degree program will show you how to use innovative digital technologies to develop creative solutions to business problems—and teach you the fundamentals of engineering. You will learn to solve problems in a structured way and to design products or improve processes by incorporating your own ideas. This may include optimizing CO2 balances, developing energy concepts, or improving material cycles. Working as part of a team with your fellow students, you will manage exciting projects and constantly face new challenges. Show us what you're made of and help us shape the technologies of tomorrow!

What you can except

Are you enthusiastic about modern technologies and enjoy thinking analytically? Would you like to demonstrate your skills in a relaxed learning environment while gaining as much practical experience as possible? Then the project-based women's degree program, in which you study in a female-only environment for the first two semesters, is just right for you.

From the third semester onwards, you will study in mixed courses and work in teams with students from various disciplines (e.g., industrial engineering, energy and environmental technology, or safety engineering) on regular project work. This will give you valuable insights into the working world of an engineer while you are still studying and even allow you to make initial contacts that will help you later when you start your career.

What are you learning?

In addition to the fundamentals of engineering, you will acquire the skills needed to manage technical projects from planning to implementation. You will apply state-of-the-art techniques such as virtual product development and AI methods. You can set your own individual focus in a wide range of elective modules on topics such as digitalization, sustainability, project management/economics, production technology, and materials science.

This program offers you complete flexibility and allows you to choose your own areas of specialization based on your personal interests.
