Electrical Engineering and Electric Mobility
Electrical Engineering and Electric Mobility
Are you interested in the technology behind batteries for electric vehicles and energy storage systems? With the Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering and Electromobility at Ingolstadt University of Applied Sciences (THI), you can help shape the mobility of tomorrow through electrical engineering – as well as all sectors of industry where knowledge of electrical engineering and electromobility is in demand. You’ll learn, through a scientifically sound and practical approach, how to design and develop components, systems and functions for hybrid and electric vehicles, as well as other transport systems. This will ensure you’re ideally prepared for your career.
In the first stage of the programme, you’ll acquire the fundamentals of electrical engineering and the natural sciences, and learn new programming languages.
In the second stage of your studies, you will take modules from the four highly practical and specialisation-focused areas of ‘Electromobility’, ‘Electronics’, ‘Measurement and Control Technology’ and ‘Team Building/Elective Project’.
Unlike the Electrical and Information Technology degree programme, here you will focus on electrochemical energy generation, energy storage and electric vehicles.
With integrated optional modules, you can tailor your studies to focus on specific areas of interest. Following your work placement semester at a company in Germany or abroad, you will complete your degree with a Bachelor’s thesis.
Once you have successfully completed your degree, you can launch your career in all sectors of industry and services, in traditional electrical engineering as well as in automotive engineering.
This degree course is held in German.
What are the career prospects in electrical engineering? Is e-mobility still in demand?
The labour market opportunities and earning potential for our graduates are very good. Students establish contacts with companies at an early stage during the practical semester and during an industry-related Bachelor's thesis. Areas of employment can currently be found in all industrial and service sectors, in traditional electrical engineering as well as in automotive engineering. The story of the car battery is far from over; innovative solutions, new materials and, above all, the question of resource-saving and, ideally, recyclable energy storage systems will keep electromobility busy for a long time to come.

First stage of studies
The first stage of the programme comprises two theoretical semesters with the following fundamental subjects:
Introductory project, electrical engineering, engineering mathematics, programming, physics, electronic components, digital technology, measurement technology, and signals and systems.
Second stage of studies
The second stage comprises four theoretical semesters and one practical semester (generally the fifth), comprising in-depth study of the following subjects:
Modelling, circuit technology, digital signal processing, physical chemistry, fields and waves, control engineering, microcomputer technology, energy storage systems, vehicle electronics, power electronics, business management, electric and hybrid vehicles, dynamics of vehicle movement, electrical drive systems, mechatronic components, project, project management, and three subject-related elective modules.
The second stage of the degree programme concludes with the bachelor's thesis.
Applying for a degree course
Students in Electrical Engineering and Electric Mobility may only begin their degree in the winter semester.
Since the program is not subject to admission restrictions, applications are submitted exclusively via the PRIMUSS-application portal THI.
Application dates
Information on the application period and the application procedure can be found here: "Application for a Bachelor study course"
Admission requirements
To gain admission to the programme, applicants need one of the following qualifications for university entrance:
- Abitur (European Baccalaureate, A-Levels, High School Diploma)
- Fachhochschulreife (Vocational Baccalaureate)
- Fachgebundene Hochschulreife (Specialised A-Level)
Follow the link for overall information about the application process
Admission requirements for international students
If you wish to study at a German University, you need a so-called Hochschulzugangsberechtigung (HZB), or higher education entrance qualification. This is a secondary school-leaving certificate that corresponds to the German Abitur and entitles you to study.
Students from abroad must apply for admission from the university of their choice. For your application, you will require for a Bachelor's degree:
- a school-leaving certificate (also known as "university entrance qualification", e.g. High School Diploma, Matura, A-Levels, Bachillerato, Atestat, baccalauréat)
or - proof that you have passed the university entrance examination (if required in your home country)
