Occupational profiles of graduates
Promising career paths: Whether you go into industry, research or continue studying at the university and pursue a Doctorate - everything is open to you with a master's degree in Mechatronics.
Students will acquire the following qualifications in a master's degree programme in Mechatronics:
- designing, drafting and dimensioning mechatronic systems
- statically and dynamically describing, simulating and optimising technical systems in their mechanical, electrical and regulated behaviour.
- planning and applying data management through the product lifecycle
- application of numeric methods for linear and non-linear analyses and simulation (e.g. FEA - Finite Elements Analysis, CFD - Computational Fluid Dynamics, MBS - Multi Body Systems)
- applying CNC 5 axial processing
- applying and optimising integrated CAD/CAM processes (Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing)
- applying and developing reverse engineering
- planning, simulation and control of production systems and production processes, primarily those that integrate sensors, electronics and information technology in mechanical systems.
The students are prepared to work in a team on large tasks in the advanced development, general development and construction of products as well as technical processes, in particular production processes. They are capable of participating in scientific discourse related to the engineering disciplines of mechatronics, engineering, electronics and information technology.
Graduates with a master's degree in Mechatronics usually work in the following branches:
- engineering, electrical and electronics industry
- consumer and capital goods industry
- automotive industry
- automotive supplier industry
- medical technology
In the area of services, the professional fields of work are primarily in development, planning and engineering offices.
