Industrial Engineering (MWW), M.Eng.
The master's degree in industrial engineering qualifies graduates to fill the interface between technology and business, which is becoming increasingly important in practice, at a high level. Through the deepening of scientific-methodical and professional knowledge in essential disciplines of industrial engineering, the basis for a wide range of professional applications is created wherever there are interdisciplinary technical-economic integration tasks to be solved in and between the operational sub-disciplines marketing / sales via logistics, Materials management / purchasing, manufacturing / production, development, controlling, accounting to organization and IT goes. The aim of the course is to deepen the technical-economic technical, methodological and social skills that enable independent use of the methods and responsible action in the professional fields of "technical sales" or "production and logistics".

How the selection works and how strong the competition is — we go through it against your certificate when we select programmes for you.
Programme selection →What you study
Lectures to be attended are systems engineering, requirements engineering, operational IT systems in production companies, business analytics, technical law, advanced finance, as well as one project each in the first and second semester. The projects should be based on a research topic or a scientific problem. The specializations differ in the lectures Service Engineering, Sales Management and Product Life Cycle Management (Technical Sales), Production Processes and Simultaneous Engineering (Systems Engineering) as well as Advanced Manufacturing, Automation Systems and Virtual Systems (Logistics and Production). The theoretical and project section of the first two semesters is followed by the completion of a master's thesis with an associated colloquium.
The full curriculum and the programme's parameters are part of programme selection: we compare them with your profile.

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 B2 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 uni-assist (VPD) + the university until 15.01uni-assist checks documents for 4–6 weeks — send them well before the deadline.
- 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.
