Mechanical Engineering
The Master's Programme in Mechanical Engineering offers several unique multi-disciplinary specialisation packages, such as digital engineering, industrial design, hybrid materials and additive manufacturing, which support traditional mechanical engineering. You will be studying in well-equipped facilities, and many of your classes will take place in high-tech labs that enable computer modelling, 3D imaging, and virtual reality for conducting experiments.
The programme provides you with great opportunities to build your own personal study plan by freely selecting two of eight available specialisation packages and some elective courses.
You will build your own study plan from the following specialisations:
- digital engineering
- robotics and mechatronics
- welding technology and laser processing
- steel structures
- composites and hybrid materials
- sustainable manufacturing processes.
- ECTS transcript – If you are still completing your Bachelor’s degree, upload an ECTS transcript showing the subjects you have studied, your grades, and the number of credits awarded. Your Bachelor’s diploma must be uploaded later, as soon as you receive it.
- Bachelor’s diploma – If you have already graduated, upload your Bachelor’s diploma. A separate ECTS transcript is not required.
Note: Your Bachelor’s degree must be in the same or a related field as the Master’s programme you are applying for. The university will check whether you have completed enough relevant subjects and ECTS credits.
Important! View the full requirements on the university’s official website. Requirements may vary depending where you completed your bachelor education.
Applicants have to prove their English language skills either by an internationally recognized language test or upon previous studies. Usually English language skills can be proved by the following documents:
- TOEFL iBT*
- IELTS Academic
- A Cambridge English qualification
- Higher education degree completed in English
- Secondary education completed in English in a country or school qualification accepted by the university
- An English subject and grade on your secondary school leaving certificate that meet the university’s requirements
- Other
Important: Accepted methods and minimum results depend on study programme and the country where you completed your education. Check the official requirements for your chosen study programme.
