goals and career prospects

The aim of the practice-oriented study, which is based on scientific principles, is the training for a Bachelor of Engineering, which finds its field of activity in industry, in business and in public service. Mechanical engineering as one of the classic fields of study in engineering sciences opens up an extremely wide range of applications. The areas of activity research and development, system planning, consulting, project planning, construction, work preparation, manufacture and assembly, commissioning, operational organization and monitoring, quality assurance, testing, customer service represent only an incomplete guide to the diverse application possibilities. To the diverse requirements of modern industrial society Doing justice to the enormous pressure to innovate requires solid basic knowledge on the one hand and the ability to react quickly to new challenges on the other.

The teaching of appropriate methodological skills, using modern computer technology, combined with a particularly application-oriented training, enables graduates of the mechanical engineering course to work successfully as a Bachelor of Engineering in an important area of social value creation.
