Medical Engineering

 

What you will learn

Our Bachelor of Engineering programme deepens your knowledge of technology and has an interdisciplinary approach thanks to the focus on (medical) device technology, smart manufacturing, sensor technology and computer science.

In your first semesters you learn the basics in disciplines such as mechanical engineering, mechatronics, electrical engineering or programming and deepen your knowledge in the areas of mathematics, statistics and physics. Building on this, you deepen your knowledge of current topics such as data analytics, Internet of Things, computer-aided manufacturing and a range of smart systems and technologies.

During your studies, you will also strengthen your know-how in the areas of power electronics, drive engineering, cloud technologies as well as autonomous and embedded systems. You are familiar with various additive and subtractive manufacturing methods, know which materials are best suited for specific products and are able to model and simulate technical systems.

The specialisation in medical engineering also expands your engineering and medical technology expertise and strengthens your awareness of the quality requirements of the industry. Focused on medical technology, you learn how imaging technologies are used in medicine and how machine learning and neural networks improve diagnostics. You know how robots and smart manufacturing methods are used effectively in the production of medical products and understand how assistance systems and smart human-machine interaction can make our lives easier.

Thanks to the diverse curriculum, you do not only have a broad engineering education but also get to train important skills in projects and hands-on lectures, such as team and communication skills, innovative thinking or negotiation competences, which are sought-after in your future job life.

In addition, you receive the “Siemens Mechatronic Systems Certificate Program (SMSCP)” certification at level 1-2.

 

YOUR CAREER PROSPECTS

 

Our innovative approach that pays off

The B.Eng. Applied Mechatronic Systems - Medical Engineering study programme prepares you for positions in medical engineering, the medical device industry and micro- and nanotechnology. As a highly sought-after expert with a solid and application-oriented education, your career options also include jobs in mechanical, plant engineering and process engineering.

With your degree, you can also work in the following areas - in the manufacturing industry and other technical sectors as well as specifically in medical engineering:

  • Industrial development (planning, calculation, design and testing of technical plants, products and systems)
  • Production (planning, manufacturing, operation and monitoring of technical and process facilities and systems, testing of products and processes, quality assurance)
  • Marketing and sales of technical systems, plants and products
  • Management activities in the manufacturing industry, private sector companies and public authorities

 

Our requirements

  • General higher education entrance qualification (Abitur) or university of applied sciences entrance qualification (Fachhochschulreife). In case you have not graduated yet, please apply with your existing transcripts or your latest interim certificate. However, we need your final degree certificate before you can start your studies.
  • Please note that applicants with foreign degrees might be eligible for direct entry. This means that applicants who meet the requirements DON'T need to do a foundation year before starting their Bachelor's.
  • Proof of English language proficiency
  • Curriculum vitae
  • Copy of your passport/ID
