Connecting and fusing the disciplines of mechanical, electrical and control engineering as well as computer science is the core competence of modern engineering and especially mechatronics. You gain a broad domain knowledge, learn across disciplines and get to know state of the art and current research problems. This enables you to take a holistic view of the technical systems of tomorrow and contribute in realizing them.

Degree:     Master of Science (M.Sc.)
Study duration:     4 semesters
Credit points according to ECTS:     120
Language:     English
Type of study:     Full-time study
Start of study:     Winter semester (October)
Application period:     December 1st – March 1st
Admission requirements:     Bachelor's degree in Mechatronics or Mechanical Engineering, see subject-specific requirements
Admission restriction:     No
Fees:     None, except for semester contribution of approx. 300€
Dual studies possible:     Yes, and there is a chance for top scorer to earn the degree of an MBA at our NIT

As a graduate of the International Master Program Mechatronics, you are able to solve complex problems related to mechatronic systems, their behavior and design, robotics, intelligent and autonomous systems, automation and simulation, etc. You will be able to act methodically, to organize smaller projects, to select new technologies and scientific methods and to advance these further, if necessary.

The program is very interdisciplinary. It is characterized by the fact that it has a high proportion of electives, allowing you to study in a highly individualized way.

The technical electives include courses mostly from the School of Mechanical Engineering and the School of Electrical Engineering.

All compulsory lectures as well as most of the electives are in English. Proof of German language proficiency is not required.

Hamburg University of Technology and the city of Hamburg have many advantages: We have a harbor, we have logistics and we are the third largest civil aviation location in the world. International and national corporations from the mechanical, electrical and mechatronic sector are located In or near Hamburg. This Is reflected In the program, the research within the Institutes as well as your personal experience.

STRUCTURE

All modules in the first semester are compulsory. This helps you, especially if you are from abroad, to familiarize yourselves with the university and culture.

Afterwards you can broadly personalize your studies due to the high number and variety of elective courses.

All compulsory and nearly all elective courses are In English.

Next to 30 Credit Points (CP) compulsory courses in the first semester, the second and third semester consists of:

  • 36 CP elective courses
  • Nontechnical elective complementary courses (catalogue) (6 CP)
  • Complementary courses business and management (catalogue) (6CP)
  • as well as a student research project planned for the third semester (12 CP), which can also be done outside the university.

You write you final thesis (30 CP) In the fourth semester, either with an Institute or outside the university.
