Special features regarding teaching
The Diplom degree course in Industrial Engineering is characterised by a diverse, almost equally balanced training in Engineering and Economics. The students can specialise in both technical and economic areas through the choice of two specialisations. Choice for Technology: Industrial Management & Engineering, Automobile Engineering, Supply Engineering, Planning and Operation of Electrical Plants and Environmental Engineering/Sustainability, choice for Economics: Accounting, Marketing, Personnel, Financing, Logistics, Business Informatics, Company Management.
Special features regarding the international orientation
The objective is to encourage student exchange. To facilitate this, a module abroad and course-specific recognition modules have been integrated, which allows for more individual recognition. To raise awareness for opportunities abroad, there are regular information sessions, and additional attractive cooperation agreements are concluded with international universities. Students can turn to a staff member of International Consulting as well as a international representative (professor).
Special features regarding the equipment
As well as a very well-equipped library and PC booths, various special labs for Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Automobile Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Physical and Instrumental Engineering/Computer Science are available for the students at the WHZ.
Special features regarding research and development
There is the possibility of participating in research and development in applied research at the Institute of Business Administration and the Institute for Management and Information as well as at the technical institutes of the WHZ; The student project Formula Student / Racingteam, which enables research and development under supervision, is very successful.
Support for founders
