Simulation Based Engineering (M. Eng.)

Gain high-level expertise in engineering simulation

The development of innovative products and technologies with modern approaches and instruments is gaining more and more importance today. Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) technology contributes decisively to shortening and optimizing product development cycles in many fields of industry and research. This saves both time and money, which would have been spent on cost-intensive test runs, without sacrificing product quality. As the use of CAE continues to expand within companies, the demand for professionals with further expertise in this field expands accordingly as well.
