The table provides an overview of the structure of the degree program.

 

Modules		Acquired Skills
	Module 1 Principles of engineering science	Module 1 deals with typical engineering tasks using mathematics. Students examine fundamental mathematical structures and gain knowledge of and the ability to assess various representation methods (geometric, analytical and stochastic linearization, series representations, integral transformations and dealing with and structuring large volumes of data).
	Module 2 Mechatronic methods and systems	This modules’ content are the methods for the analysis of mechatronic systems and components, local integration of mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic and electronic elements according to their spatial layout and function. In addition, the following topics are covered:power electronics, actuator technology, telematics, simulation software, sensor networks, teleoperators and micro automation.
	Module 3 Digital factory	How can a complete factory be planned offline before production has started and before the production machines have been built? The content covered in this module includes the planning of innovative processes and products, the use of various methods, successful applications on the basis of current examples and approaches, for quickly moving new products into production.
	Module 4 Automation	In the Automation module students learn about the theory behind modern programming concepts and apply them in practical exercises. In addition, this module deals with control engineering for automated production systems as well as simulation and process engineering.
	Module 5 Intelligent manufacturing	Advanced concepts for intelligent manufacturing systems that take both evolutionary and bionic approaches into consideration and include the automation of extremely small structures and mobile agents are covered by this module. Students acquire the scientific knowledge needed to independently develop new concepts and solutions in these fields.
	Module 6 Project management	In the course of module 6 students optimize their own leadership skills based on their project management expertise and basic knowledge about facilitating effective teamwork. They are familiar with the newest models related to the topic of leadership and motivation and integrate them into their personal leadership strategies. They guide their teams with knowledge of the principles and possibilities of group dynamics and communications models and manage complex projects. They act proactively in project crises and successfully present their projects and their team to the various stakeholders.
	Module 7 Production systems	The Production Systems module deals with topics such as manufacturing and assembly systems, the logistical analysis of flexible systems, material flow analysis, tool flow analysis, model building and the simulation of dynamic production processes, the optimization of production systems, control strategies and manipulating techniques as well as production methods that are suitable for assembly applications.
	Module 8 Business administration	The content of this module covers: business administration, quality assurance, quality management, innovation management, risk management and technical English.
	Module 9 Academic research and writing	In the course “Project” an industrial or research project from the department of mechatronics is conducted. Students can choose the projects from the broad field of mechatronics, mechanical engineering, automation engineering, life cycle design as well as robotics (like for example mobile, industrial or humanoid robots).
	Module 10 Master’s thesis	In the last module students gain well-grounded scientific, theoretical and practice-oriented knowledge in the field of their theses as well as additional practical skills in the preparation of scientific publications in the fourth semester.
