Programme Characteristics and Goals
The Bachelor's programme in Engineering and Management at the University of Applied Sciences Merseburg and the Martin Luther University (MLU) Halle-Wittenberg trains competent engineers in an inspiring, international environment with small class sizes and provides students with a comprehensive knowledge of both economics and language skills.
You will be able to understand and analyse international markets as well as technical and logistical processes. You will become familiar with the technical equipment and production facilities entrusted to you. Through your training in Germany and integrated German language classes, you will also gain the key to establishing future business relationships and effectively shaping international production chains and trade relations.
Applicants to our programme have a genuine interest in engineering and natural sciences, have links to business studies / economics, and possess an excellent proficiency in English. Additionally, international applicants have the desire to immerse themselves in a multilingual environment and will professionally benefit from a strong command of the German language by the end of their studies.
Career Opportunities
Graduates of the BSc Engineering and Management are engineers with business qualifications and intercultural competencies. They understand and analyse international markets, but also master technical and logistical processes in production facilities. Due to the fact that the programme is studied in English, graduates are able to establish cross-border business relationships and effectively participate in international activities.
Programme Structure
The curriculum comprises the following components:
- Engineering (75 CP)
- Business and economics (45 CP)
- Language (25 CP)
- Intercultural knowledge (5 CP)
- Internship (18 CP)
- Thesis (12 CP)
Engineering
The fundamentals of the natural sciences are laid down in mathematics, physics, and chemistry courses. Then, engineering fundamentals are taught by focusing on materials science, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, mechanics, and electrical engineering. In-depth courses are then offered in different fields of process engineering, such as process engineering, equipment in processes, process control, and sustainable energy supply. Then, in so-called compulsory electives, students can specialise in biotechnology, environmental technology, computer-aided design (CAD), and plant engineering. These modules are run by Merseburg University of Applied Sciences in a very application-oriented manner and have a large practical component.
Business and Economics
Key modules in financial accounting, statistics I and II, cost accounting, and principles of investment as well as a large selection of other elective modules are offered by the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg. These modules will complement your engineering skills with a management perspective.
Language
Language is the key to understanding. The programme is taught in English, but international students will benefit from integrated German language classes as part of their curriculum.
Intercultural Knowledge
Intercultural knowledge is invaluable for successful communication in an international context, so this topic will be addressed and taught in a very specific module.
