A rethink in the area of energy supply and utilisation is essential in times of climate change and the finite and unstable nature of fossil fuel supplies. Particular attention is paid to the utilisation of renewable energy sources such as solar radiation in PV and solar thermal systems, biomass, wind power and hydrogen technology. The five-month course is designed to address these future topics and help meet the growing demand for engineers.
The course is suitable for students in their final year or those interested in postgraduate studies in engineering and engineering sciences or from Germany and abroad. Established in 1997, the course runs from September to February. There is no equivalent programme in northern Germany.
This study course is offered in English.
Renewable energies and e-mobility - these are particularly innovative, fast-growing and future-oriented sectors in Germany and abroad.
In times of climate change and the finite and unstable supply of fossil fuels, a rethink in the area of energy supply and utilisation is essential. Particular attention is being paid to the utilisation of renewable energy sources such as solar radiation in PV and solar thermal systems, biomass, wind and hydropower as well as the development of alternative storage concepts and electric vehicles. The electrification of the automobile can be an important step towards avoiding the consequences of climate change and at the same time take an important step towards the future competitiveness of our automotive industry. The new study programme aims to address these future topics and help meet the growing demand for engineers.
Graduates will be able to apply scientific methods and analyses to solve complex problems in practice and research. The Master's programme offers a range of optional modules in the fields of renewable energies or electromobility. In addition to compulsory modules based on mathematical-technical fundamentals and interdisciplinary qualifications, application-specific expertise is taught in elective modules on various topics in the two focus areas.
See you - on the modern campus directly on the Baltic Sea!
ETCS & semester hours per week
The assigned ECTS points (European Credit Transfer System) reflect the workload for the respective module (1 ETCS point corresponds to 30 working hours). ETCS serve the comparability and recognition of academic achievements, for example when changing the place of study.
The semester hours per week (SWS) denote the weekly attendance time of a course. We are talking about 1 unit = 2 SWS = 90 minutes.
