International Engineering Bachelor (INB) - Mechanical Engineering
Description
Engineers are one of the most sought-after professions in Germany. Salaries and future career opportunities could not be better. Our students take part in a multilateral study program. It combines electrical, mechanical and process engineering. The course offers small study groups, individual support, intensive practical orientation and close contacts with regional industry.
With the Mechanical Engineering specialization, our students focus on the mechanical aspects of modern industry: for example in offshore wind farms, how to build a wind turbine or the platform that houses the energy conversion systems before transporting the energy to land. With an understanding of electrical and process requirements, our graduates are ideally suited for such challenging positions, with multidisciplinary requirements in mind.
