Study in Chemnitz. To know what is good.





*

With industrial manufacturing being the key industry in southwest Saxony, mechanical engineering at Chemnitz University of Technology is an extremely strong incentive for businesses to invest in the region. A large number of engineers from Chemnitz go on to work for German manufacturing industries and Chemnitz graduates can be found in key positions all over the world.

Many high-potential research projects have been completed or are in progress in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, accounting for almost half the research funds acquired by the university and amounting to more than 150 full time research assistants currently employed. Students are engaged in research projects early in their programmes and work actively towards innovative solutions. Strong ties to manufacturing industries offer numerous opportunities to integrate practical work with the study programmes, thus enabling students to observe current trends in manufacturing.

The following fields of study are available
  • Applied Mechanics
  • Factory Systems/Production Management
  • Manufacturing and Assembly Systems
  • General Engineering and Production Technology
  • Construction and Propulsion Engineering
  • Materials Technology
  • Machine Tools/Forming Technology
  • Print and Media Technology

The Mechanical Engineering lab facilities include millions of euros worth of experimental and manufacturing equipment, including a modern 3D virtual reality lab, the latest digital printing machinery, a modern usability lab and an experimental manufacturing plant.
