Program Overview

Program Overview

The bachelor's program in Engineering Science provides a broad-based fundamental education, preparing students for a career in engineering in general without having to decide on a particular area of specialization or a specific career from the outset. The program enables students to acquire a thorough technical knowledge of physics as well as the classical disciplines of engineering, including mechanical engineering, civil engineering, and electrical engineering.

Program Details

• Degree: Bachelor of Science
• Standard period of study: 6 semesters
• Credit points: 180
• Program start: Summer and winter semester
• Admission: Open admission
• Language of instruction: German

Admission Requirements

The bachelor's degree in Engineering Science is ideal for anyone who enjoys mathematics and physics and who would subsequently like to work as an engineer without having to commit themselves to a specific field from the outset. The Engineering Science bachelor's program is taught in German. If applying with a foreign school-leaving certificate, proof of German skills at a specific level is required. Knowledge of English is useful as some course/modules are offered in English, but it is not a condition for admission to studies.

Program Structure

There is a proposed course schedule for the degree program, which is a recommendation for how to complete the degree program within the standard period of study of six semesters. The program includes mandatory courses but can be tailored to individual interests through many elective options. The proposed study plan can be found in the study and examination regulations.

Study and Examination Regulations

The latest version of the study and examination regulations always applies to applicants. The module list in the appendix to the StuPO is constantly updated.

Content and Modules

The bachelor's degree program in Engineering Science is modular in structure. A module combines curriculum content relating to a specific topic. Many modules adopt various study and teaching formats, such as lectures, practical tutorials, seminars, and practical projects. Students are required to earn a specific number of credit points and complete certain coursework and assessments in each module.

Internships

Two non-university internships are mandatory for this bachelor's program: a 6-week pre-internship and a 12-week professional internship. The pre-internship is recommended to be completed before starting the program, and the advanced internship is to be completed during the program.

Stays Abroad

Parts of the program can be completed abroad, either in the form of semesters abroad or internships. General information regarding stays abroad can be obtained from the TU Berlin International Office and from the Career Service.

Acquired Skills

The bachelor's program in Engineering Science equips students with the knowledge and skills to participate in the development of mathematical-physical models for technical systems and to examine these models using appropriate experimental, analytical, and numerical methods. Students learn to recognize the similarity in the mathematical approach to various engineering problems, enabling them to develop targeted solutions and integrate these into complex systems working within interdisciplinary teams.

After Graduation

As a graduate of the bachelor's program, students can either choose to deepen their understanding of the field and focus their area of specialization by continuing with the master's program in Engineering Science at TU Berlin or directly begin their professional career. There is a wide choice of careers available to graduates in universities, research centers, or in companies. Typical career openings in industry are in the areas of aerospace, environmental engineering, automotive engineering, the energy industry, bioengineering and medical engineering, machine construction and plant construction, or civil engineering.
