Automotive Engineering and Management, B.Eng.
The scope of tasks in the automobile industry, which consists of manufacturers, suppliers and service providers, is as much economic in nature as it is technical. It includes:
- The development and introduction to market of new technologies and mobility concepts (alternative propulsion systems - esp. electromobility, electronic systems, new materials and approaches to construction, and modern manufacturing concepts).
- Internationalisation of value chains and opening up of international purchasing and sales markets.
- Increased product diversity.
- Extremely high and complex division of work between manufacturers, suppliers and service providers.
- Positioning of one's own company vis à vis competitors from and in emerging markets.
Alongside a solid basic education in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and business administration, the programme in Automotive Engineering and Management also deals with the special requirements of the automotive industry. Graduates of this programme are therefore ideally qualified for a career in the motor vehicle industry and adjacent industries.

The procedure and the set of documents depend on your certificate. We check the university's requirements against your documents and give you a list: what to submit, how to certify and translate it, where and when to apply.
Check the requirementsHow to get into this programme
- 1Check your certificate and its recognitionDirect admission, a year at a university at home, or Studienkolleg first — this decides the whole plan.
- 2German up to C1 and a certificateDSH or TestDaF has to be passed before you apply.
- 3Documents and translationsCertified translations of the certificate and transcript, an APS if required. 3–4 weeks.
- 4Application directly to the university until 15.07Send the documents well before the deadline — an incomplete application cannot be completed after it.
- 5Admission, visa, movingPlan 2–3 months for the visa and the blocked account in parallel.
How to apply
You can submit the application yourself or with our help — the university decides on admission in both cases.
Applications go through the university's portal or uni-assist. Typical mistakes:
- ×incorrectly made certified copies and translations
- ×a wrong set of documents
- ×the application submitted the wrong way
- ×errors or gaps in the application form
- ×the application submitted at the wrong time — too early or too late
An incomplete or incorrectly prepared application is excluded from the selection — it can no longer be corrected after the deadline.
StudyInFocus does not represent the university and does not influence the admission decision. We do not sell study places and do not guarantee admission — this is a service for preparing and submitting documents on the applicant's side.
If your level is not enough yet
The two most common stoppers are a language level below the requirement and a certificate without direct admission. Both can be solved, but they take months — plan them now, not after a rejection.
