Special features regarding teachingHighly industry related; Linking course content to specific problems from companies and practice-focused research and development projects from science, society and technology; strong academic grounding; carefully chosen forms of teaching such as practice projects, project work, case studies; Industrial Visits, first-rate teaching staff from academic and business areas in Germany and abroad; international focus of course content, limited number of places on the courses, continual evaluation and feedback.
-
Special features regarding the international orientationInternational mobility phases (semester abroad, work placements abroad, short programmes abroad), 200 partner universities across MCI and MCI students from 50 countries, support through the International Relations Office for preparation and completion (information events, evaluation of compatibility, etc.), participation in (inter)national education programmes, university networks and grant programmes (ERASMUS plus, Marshall Plan Foundation Scholarships, GE4 network for technology students, Fulbright, etc.), ECTS and Diploma Supplement Label.
-
Special features regarding the equipmentThe Department of Technology and Life Science has chemical, biological, process engineering and mechatronic laboratories with lab space of more than 1,500 m². In addition to the standard equipment for wet-chemical laboratories, the chemical laboratories are equipped with GC/MS, HPLC, TGA/DSC, SEM, FTIR and TOC for precision analysis.
-
Special features regarding research and developmentInnovations in the areas of food technology, biotechnology, functional & convenience foods and bioengineering will have a decisive impact on future viability. Growing demand presents an opportunity to systematically expand research activities in this field. A central challenge is to solve current questions arising along the value chain – from the production of plant-based raw materials and algae to technological utilisation and product characterisation. Novel approaches in engineering and natural sciences are used.
-
Other special featuresIn addition to standard laboratory equipment, the technical equipment and research methods in MCI’s department offering instruction and research in food science & biotechnology include 400m2 of specialised laboratories that can be used to explore questions in food technology, microbial, biotechnological and analytical fields as well as plant cultivation. In addition to the laboratory for sensor technology, which is also home to a 3D printer, there are options of analysing textures, structures and storage behaviour of a variety of raw and processed products (under different light and temperature conditions).
