BSc Aerospace Engineering at University of Stuttgart

The Aerospace Engineering study programme equips you with the fundamentals to shape the future of flight and explore space: From improving the sustainability of aviation and applying artificial intelligence to safety-critical tasks, to building rockets, designing satellites for diverse applications, and even constructing rovers for other planets. The broad-ranging programme at Germany’s most prestigious university for aerospace engineering offers you the opportunity to deepen your knowledge through various projects right from the start.

Duration: 6 semesters (3 years)  |  Study mode: full-time, German-taught  |  Intake: Winter semester  |  Location: Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg, Germany

What you will study

In the first three semesters, you focus on the mathematical, scientific, and engineering fundamentals. You will attend courses in advanced mathematics, physics, information technology, technical mechanics, materials science, and engineering design. In the second half of the programme, application-oriented engineering disciplines take centre stage, including statics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, space engineering, systems engineering, and aerospace engineering/propulsion.

Career pathways

As the name of the study programme suggests, graduates can later work in the aerospace industry in the fields of development and research. In their work, they deal, for example, with new airplanes, helicopters, satellites, or launch systems (rockets). However, aerospace engineering graduates are also in demand in other industries.
