Electrical Engineering and Electric Mobility
Electrical Engineering and Electric Mobility
The Master’s programme in Electrical Engineering and Electromobility at THI prepares you for challenging engineering roles in the development of complex systems for hybrid and electric vehicles. Upon successfully completing your degree, you will be in high demand within the industry, not only in product development but also in manufacturing and testing. You will also have the option of pursuing a PhD or a career in research.
The Master’s programme in Electrical Engineering and Electromobility (EMO) at THI equips you with the engineering skills required to develop complex electrical and mechatronic systems in the automotive sector, as well as the application of model-based development techniques.
The programme comprises two full-time academic semesters and one semester dedicated to writing your Master’s thesis. During the first two semesters, you will deepen your knowledge of the components of electromobility as well as in the fields of modelling and simulation. You will learn methods for the mathematical description of all key aspects of electric mobility. This covers the full spectrum from the description of key components – such as electric motors, power electronics, energy storage systems, gearboxes and internal combustion engines – right through to the complete vehicle. Following the first two semesters, you will write your Master’s thesis – either at THI or as part of a work placement in a company.
Once you have successfully completed your Master’s degree, a wide range of career opportunities in the field of electromobility will be open to you – from the automotive industry, through electric rail technology and electrically assisted two-wheelers, to medical technology and mobile devices in the consumer goods industry.
Career Prospects
Graduates of the Electrical Engineering and Electromobility Master's programme are well prepared for careers in industry or research. Typical fields of employment include research and development, advanced engineering, vehicle development, system design, testing and validation, and innovation management.
The programme opens opportunities across a wide range of sectors, including the automotive industry, electric mobility solutions, medical technology, transportation systems, and consumer electronics. Graduates are also qualified to pursue doctoral studies and research careers. With the growing demand for highly skilled engineers and the strong presence of automotive manufacturers and suppliers, particularly in Southern Germany, career prospects in this field are excellent.

The job profile of graduates is characterised by tasks in the areas of research, pre-development and development with a wide range of applications from the automotive industry to electromobility in the medical sector and mobile devices in the "consumer" industry.
The degree programme achieves a close interlocking of theory and practice through the large presence of automotive industrial companies in the region. In order to optimally prepare the students for the diverse tasks in industry and in the scientific field, the focus of the education is on the modelling and simulation of technical systems of electromobility.
Prerequisites
Bachelor’s degree with at least 210 ECTS credit points in the field of electrical engineering, IT, mechatronics, a related subject or an equivalent qualification, acquired either in Germany or abroad. As a general rule, a minimum duration of three and a half years or seven semesters is required in cases where applicants hold a bachelor’s degree that is not based on the ECTS credit point system. A decision is made each semester as to whether admission limitations apply and what these are. The grade average or waiting period required to gain a place is not stipulated in advance but will depend on the number of applications and capacity available.
