Bachelor of Engineering (B. Eng.)
The English-taught Bachelor’s degree programme in Engineering and Management combines engineering with business management expertise. You will gain in-depth knowledge in areas such as mechanics, computer science, electronics and software development, as well as in accounting, marketing and management control. Complemented by key soft skills, the programme will equip you to take on a wide range of roles at the interface between technology and management in international companies.
If you want to develop technological innovations while understanding how businesses operate in a global environment, the Bachelor’s programme in Engineering and Management is the ideal choice. You will gain a broad engineering education covering subjects such as engineering mechanics, materials science, electrical engineering, computer science, software development, and mathematics. At the same time, you will build a solid foundation in business disciplines including accounting, marketing, and controlling, enabling you to evaluate technical projects from both an engineering and a commercial perspective.
Project-based learning helps you strengthen essential professional skills such as teamwork, communication, and presentation, preparing you for international working environments. Modules in Intercultural Studies, International Management, and a second foreign language enhance your global mindset and intercultural competence. An international semester abroad and an industry placement in the fifth semester provide valuable practical experience and direct exposure to global business environments. As the entire programme is taught in English, graduates are exceptionally well prepared for careers with internationally operating companies at the intersection of technology, innovation, and management.
The degree programme opens up a wide range of career prospects at the interface between technology and management. Graduates take on roles, for example, in international product management, industrial engineering or the management of international projects. Other areas of work include strategic procurement, international sales of technical products, management consultancy, and globally oriented roles such as IT, planning or procurement. Furthermore, the programme prepares students for demanding assistant and coordination roles in management, as well as for future leadership responsibilities in internationally active companies.
