Smart Production Engineering (SPE)

Become a production engineer and shape the digital transformation in industry and companies! Production technology is changing. Digitalisation has had a major impact on the world of work and production over the past ten years, and its influence continues to grow significantly. As part of "Industry 4.0", production technology is becoming increasingly networked and more agile. New manufacturing processes are emerging, and entire industries must adapt their production towards global trends in productivity, flexibility and sustainability. The MSc Smart Production Engineering (MSc SPE) responds to these developments with its interdisciplinary curriculum and qualifies you to move into advanced positions at the interface of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and computer science. Your studies – your choice: choose a study track To equip you with the specialisation you need for your individual career path, we offer three exclusive study tracks in the MSc SPE that represent the latest in production engineering. Each study track stands on its own, leading to a tailored education that gives you a very individual profile and sets you apart from the crowd. Additive Manufacturing Choosing this study track, you will: focus on generative manufacturing processes analyse process chains for additive manufactured components learn about advanced materials and manufacturing technologies such as selective laser melting Smart Factory Choosing this study, track you will: navigate "Industry 4.0" driven production and control production processes with 5G technology get to know agile production and progressive automation learn about model-based systems engineering Electric Mobility Production Choosing this study track, you will: design electrical machines for production processes and learn about vehicle component production innovate mobility engineering towards a green future improve sustainable energy storage systems and optimise value chains
