This master’s programme trains you in the theory and methods for designing and simulating technical systems as well as systems used in logistics and production. A strong practical focus ensures you gain hands-on experience with software tools that support analysis, development and dynamic simulation of such systems, so you can model, evaluate and improve real-world processes.
You will deepen and customise your technical expertise in simulation and system design, while also studying selected business administration topics. This combination enables you to not only develop and test technical solutions but also to assess and justify the economic and managerial implications of your design decisions. Instruction is delivered in English, making the course accessible to both domestic and international students.

This master's programme requires a completed bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering and specific prior knowledge in a few core areas. Applicants must document their subject-specific coursework with official course descriptions from their awarding university. Where German grades are quoted, equivalent marks from other grading systems are accepted—admissions will compare and convert as needed.
Some requirements differ depending on whether you apply for the three‑semester or four‑semester track. The Admission Commission reviews submitted evidence of expertise and makes final decisions about admission. Proof of English language ability at CEFR level B2 is also required.

Graduates are prepared for engineering roles that require expertise in modelling, simulation and system design across industries such as automotive, manufacturing, logistics, automation and production planning. Typical positions include simulation engineer, systems designer, process planner, control systems engineer, and roles in R&D, production optimisation and tool development.
The programme’s combination of simulation software training, technical core subjects (programming, control engineering, 3D CAD) and business-administration topics also enables career paths in project management, technical consulting and interdisciplinary teams where decisions must balance technical performance and economic considerations. The mandatory internship for the four-semester track strengthens practical industry experience and employability.
