Target audience
- Mid-career and young professionals (age 27 - 40) identified as high potentials in the company
- Foreseen career path as an engineering specialist with growing responsibilities as a „generalist“ in the fields of development, production, logistics, services or related fields.
Programme
Graduates of the Master Program Green Mobility Engineering (GME) are able to meet the requirements of future mobility systems regarding the conversation of natural resources and environment protection as well as social acceptance, and to drive the re-orientation regarding energy and utilization efficiency, zero emission level, neutral CO2-balance, safety, comfort and affordability. Therewith they supplement and replace existing technologies.
For this purpose, they acquire an extensive and structured system-knowledge, divided into the subsystems automotive (with its components, functional elements and materials), driver, traffic, infrastructure, markets and society. They are capable to analyze complex systems by taking relevant interdependencies between subsystems and level of details into account and deriving approaches for sustainable mobility and automotive concepts. Methods and processes needed for an efficient development of technical, economical and in the market successful and innovative solutions are familiar to the graduates. Moreover graduates are capable to reduce complexity by means of innovative problem solution methods and further creativity approaches.
For that, they will attain knowledge, skills, capabilities and competences in the fields of energy efficient combustion machines, regenerative fuels, energy sources and storages, safe and efficient propulsion systems, efficient use of available energy in the car, lightweight design, control and regulation concepts, architectures and technologies, E-Engines, power electronics, embedded electronic systems, sensor data processing, production systems for electro mobility, drivability, models of human behavior, noise and vibration comfort, advanced driver assistance systems, car-to-car and car-to-infrastructure communication systems, automated perception of environment by cars, autonomous vehicles, mobility supply and demand, holistic CO2-balance and smart supply of energy.
