MechatronicsCom (B.Eng.) - degree programme with integrated practical experience

MechatronicsCom (B.Eng.) - degree programme with integrated practical experience

The MechatronicsCom programme is a fusion of university study and practical industrial experience. It was developed in conjunction with industrial partners and is now being implemented in a great many companies such as Bosch, BMW, Siemens, Mahle, TTS-Tooltechnik, Tesat and WMF.

Unlike students on a conventional degree programme, those enrolled in the MechatronicsCom programme receive financial support and continue to be employed by a company.

Be proactive - get in touch with us and your Personnel Department and ask about this innovative way to obtain a degree.

Numerous companies have signed up to the MechatronicsCom collaboration model - and some have adopted their own particular name for it: Siemens, Mahle ("MahleFix”), for example.

Information on admission requirements

To be admitted to the MechatronicsCom programme, applicants must have a university entrance qualification (Abitur, Fachhochschulreife or equivalent) and have been accepted by a partner company.

  • Automation Systems and Production Informatics
  • Electrical engineering

  • Mechatronics

Degree programme with integrated practical experience (MechatronicsCom)

Eligibility:

  •  Craftsmen and women with a university entrance qualification
  •  School leavers with a restricted university entrance qualification (equivalent to German Fachabitur)
