BSc Mechatronics at University of Stuttgart

Autonomous mobile robots, machine tools, motor vehicles, or medical devices – many of the technological achievements of our modern world would be unthinkable without the optimal interaction of mechanics, electrical engineering, and information technology. Are you interested in technical systems and motivated to bring them to life? The Mechatronics study programme combines the fields of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and information technology.

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

What you will study

In Mechatronics, you don’t learn just one aspect of a technical system; you learn to design and develop dynamic and complex systems in an integrated way. From mechanical design and the development of electrical circuits to programming, control, regulation, and simulation – you become familiar with every stage of the development process. You will learn not only how to apply a formula, but also how to derive it yourself.

Career pathways

More than half of the academics employed in the private sector are engineers. And the industry increasingly demands highly qualified engineers with broad foundational knowledge. As a mechatronics engineer, you are trained to work at the interface of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science.
