In the degree programme in Mechanical Engineering you will learn about the development and design of new mechanical systems and machinery. We will show you how you can combine innovative technologies with solid mechanical engineering principles and bring together your knowledge from various technical sciences to create forward-looking solutions.
The methodological and technical competencies I acquired at the Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences enable me to face and successfully master new technical challenges on a daily basis. In addition to my professional development, studying mechanical engineering has also shaped my personal development.

After several years in machining and assembly, making the leap back to the classroom was not easy for me at first. However, for my personal development, the degree has more than worthwhile. The Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences provided me with solid, in-depth technical knowledge, in order to be well-placed for the future profession. What I particularly liked was the fact that you can build up your own specialisation and strengthen your interests in the later Bachelor’s semesters, as well as in the Master’s.

Career prospects
The demand for mechanical engineers and qualified graduates continues to grow. And that means jobs with a secure future!
Mechanical engineers are in demand particularly in the automotive, aerospace and machine tools industries. They can be found both in small, medium and large companies. The planning, development, design, maintenance and distribution of machinery and equipment in almost all branches of industry result in very multifaceted fields of activity.
Programme Structure
Basic Study (in English)
Mathematics
Physics with lab
Computer Science - Fundamentals of Programming - Algorithms and Data Structures
Electrical Engineering with Laboratory Work
Engineering Mechanics
Engineering Design and Strength - Fundamentals of Engineering Design - Introduction to CAD - Design Theory 1 - Design Theory 2 with Strength of Materials
Materials - Metals - Plastics
A compulsory German language course is also part of the programme.
Main Study (in German)
In the main course, the fundamentals are expanded and a broad range of subject-specific knowledge is taught. The lectures are supplemented by practical exercises in the laboratories.
Specialist and technical electives (lectures and laboratories)
The newly acquired knowledge and skills are then applied in the internship, in which students work independently in an industrial company on real tasks from everyday engineering life.
Practical experience in an industrial company
Real tasks from everyday engineering life
Independent working
Engineering conditions
Contact with experienced engineers
Paid internship
Option of foreign placement
In the advanced studies programme you have considerable freedom to choose your areas of focus, based on your experience from the practical semester. In addition, you can attend various lectures from other courses in the faculty. Of course, content on management and soft skills is not left out.
Specialist and technical electives (lectures and laboratories)
Seminar work / Project - Project Planning - ME Colloquium
Advanced principles - Fluid Engineering
Interdisciplinary Qualification - Rhetoric - Law for Engineers - Introduction to Business Administration - Extracurricular (interfaculty) studies
The degree programme concludes with the Bachelor’s thesis, in which a project at the university or in cooperation with a company is independently planned, organised and implemented.
Main focus of studies
From the 4th semester, students select from a wide range of elective courses, thus having the opportunity to tailor their studies to their personal interests. In doing so, they are not bound by any combination of subjects. However, in order to provide guidance for suitable subject combinations, four main areas of study have been developed. If you follow one of these subject recommendations, you will also receive a certificate for that area of studies at the end of your course.
You can choose between the following main areas of study
