Accident analysis
Master of Engineering (M. Eng.)
How can accidents be objectively reconstructed and assessed?
When fractions of a second determine causes, liability and safety, precise analyses are essential. The Accident Analysis degree programme combines the fields of engineering, automotive engineering, computer science and modern analytical methods to provide an interdisciplinary education. The programme focuses on the scientific reconstruction of accident scenarios, the evaluation of technical data and the objective assessment of complex damage patterns. In this way, students acquire sound expertise for careers in loss adjustment, vehicle development, the insurance industry and road safety research.
Accident analysis
When fractions of a second decide lives, responsibility and justice, every detail counts. The part-time Master's degree programme in Accident Analysis (M. Eng.) combines engineering, scientific, technical and IT-based skills to create a unique interdisciplinary course that uses technical knowledge specifically to objectively investigate and assess road accidents.
The aim is to enable experts to reconstruct complex accident events using state-of-the-art methods, analyse data precisely and make scientifically sound statements, whether for expert opinions in court, insurance companies or in vehicle development.
The degree programme is therefore aimed at experts who want to take on responsibility and contribute to greater transparency and road safety with analytical acuity, technical precision and scientific expertise.
