Summary

International Industrial Engineering is a modification of the Industrial Engineering course, with the focus on internationalization. In the first semesters, you will learn the basics of technology, economics and computer science. From the fourth semester, foreign language skills (usually English) are deepened and you train important soft skills. From the fifth and sixth semester, more than half of the courses are organized in elective modules. Here you can set your own individual priorities for your training.

Then it goes far away! You will spend another two semesters abroad in a foreign language. The seventh semester is reserved for additional courses of your choice at a foreign partner university. You then complete an internship in the same country in the eighth semester.

The course ends with the bachelor thesis. With the expansion of the foreign language course and the inclusion of international and comparative cultural aspects in the course, you will receive very good preparation for management work on the international job market.

goals and career prospects

The training objective of the practice-oriented course, which is based on scientific principles, is to enable you to enter an international professional environment immediately after completing your studies. Industrial engineering has always combined hybrid knowledge from technical and economic training and thus enables industry and the service sector to have direct access to well-founded cross-departmental qualifications. In addition, the engineers in this course are characterized by the language and intercultural skills they have acquired abroad.
