Location Soest is a small medieval city of some 50,000 inhabitants, which pro- vides a perfect atmosphere for serious studies. The new campus is located within a 10-minute walk from the city centre.
Course focus The course offers four “pathways”:

  • Electronic Systems (ES)
  • Mechatronic Systems (MTS)
  • Mechanical Systems (MS)
  • Renewable Systems (RS)

Each pathway has the general objectives of developing

  • an in-depth understanding of methods and techniques in engineer- ing management and systems engineering and of digital systems in particular
  • the ability to solve advanced problems in technical systems, the knowledge and skills in engineering management to advance students’ careers
  • the ability to communicate clearly in speech, writing and the use of appropriate mathematics and software

In order to achieve the above objectives, the entire course comprises the following nine modules:

First semester:

  • Business in Engineering
  • Intelligent Systems (not for RS)
  • Signal Processing (ES only)
  • Advanced Production Engineering (MTS and MS only)
  • Photovoltaic, Energy Efficiency (RS only)
  • Wind Generation and Energy Management (RS only)
  • Technical Publications and Presentations

Second semester:

  • Advanced Control Technology
  • Microprocessor-Based Systems (ES and MTS only)
  • Monitoring of Mechanical Systems (MS only)
  • Hydrogen, Fuel Cells, Energy Parks (RS only)
  • Project Management
  • Integrated Management

Third semester:

  • M.Sc. Project and Viva
