With advanced courses in mathematics, information-, communication- and automation-technology the students get specific skills in these areas, which serve as a base for further innovative approaches.
By experiencing a variety of situations in laboratories, during specific project work and the master thesis the students will become acquainted with a methodical engineering approach. After finishing the program they will have advanced skills in the area of information technology which enable them to master complex and unpredictable problems with innovative solutions.
Specific courses like "International Project Management and Business Administration" the "Project Course" and the "Master Thesis" contain not only technical skills but also the training of soft skills, which enable the students in the design of processes, the mastering of change management and the creation of new strategic approaches. They will be able to contribute for the enhancement of technical knowledge and get competence in leadership and mentoring teams.
