Profile

Micro-engineers work in many different areas involving precision on a small scale. They develop appliances and systems, and design and produce prototypes.

The basis of this course covers a wide range of subjects: mechanics, design, electronics, information technology and sensor technology – always focused on the application areas of micro-technology. Then there are general study contents, such as languages, economics and project management.

In the first instance, the students select three of the six study specializations on offer: mechatronics (systems comprising electronic and mechanics); medical technology (development and manufacture of micro-technical systems); optics and photonics (contact-free measuring using optical sensors); production and automation technology; robotics (development, design and programming of small robots); sensor technology (a key component of the electronics industry); management.
