BSc Computational Engineering (CE) at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU)

Technical developments are becoming increasingly complex and are based to a large extent on mathematical principles. Engineers are thus dependent on powerful hardware and software and a mastery of computer science methods as a key competence. Only in this way can they successfully develop new products, compare technical solutions or predict the effects of design decisions.

Faculty: Faculty of Engineering  |  Duration: 6 semesters (3 years)  |  Study mode: full-time; German-taught  |  Intake: Winter semester  |  Location: Erlangen, Bayern, Germany

What you will study

In the Foundations and Orientation Phase (GOP), students should prove that they are up to the requirements of a scientific study program in Computational Engineering and, in particular, that they have acquired the methodological skills necessary to continue the degree program successfully. In addition to the three main sections Mathematics, Computer Science, and Technical Applications, the degree program consists of a compulsory elective section, an internship, soft skills, a seminar, and the Bachelor’s thesis.

Career pathways

As a CE student in Erlangen, you will be trained to solve problems flexibly, think analytically, and deal with logical-mathematical and scientific contexts. This makes you a sought-after employee as a graduate.
