Basically, it can be said that the career prospects of mechanical engineers continue to be excellent. No automobile would drive, no house would be supplied with water and energy, no toothpaste would find its way into a tube, were it not for mechanical engineers who, among other things, would deal with the planning, development, design, manufacture and distribution of products, machines and apparatuses as well as the associated processes that have made many everyday things we take for granted possible in the first place.
The broad-based Master of Engineering (M. Eng.) degree programme enables you to take up interesting and challenging jobs in many industrial sectors, e.g. mechanical and plant engineering, the automotive industry, the aerospace industry, environmental technology, medical technology and the optical industry. Due to the in-depth scientific education, you are particularly suited for research-intensive fields of employment. Furthermore, with the Master's degree you can start a career in the higher civil service of the federal and state governments. Particularly high-performing students also have the option of a doctorate after completing their Master's degree.

- Industrial Engineering (Master of Science)
The Master's programme in Mechanical Engineering lasts three semesters, with the first two semesters being completed at the university. Building on the previous knowledge acquired in a successfully completed Bachelor's or Diploma degree programme, the Master's degree programme in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Applied Sciences pursues the goal of broadening and deepening specialist and methodological knowledge and practical skills. The main focus of the Master's degree programme is, among other things, the increased penetration of numerical problems, the treatment of structural, thermal and flow processes as well as the intensive examination of special topics in construction and production technology. The technical education is supplemented with the teaching of decisive non-technical key qualifications, such as foreign languages, rhetoric and presentation techniques, which are more than ever of high professional relevance. From a wide range of compulsory elective modules, you can also choose further courses according to your own inclinations and career ideas, which allow you to deepen your studies in individual areas. This includes elective modules such as multi-body simulation, special areas of power machines, foreign languages, etc. The increasingly important social competence, e.g. the ability to work in a team, is trained in various project work. The programme ends with the Master's thesis, which is usually written in an industrial company, and a colloquium.
Students enrol in the summer and winter semesters.

"A relatively small number of students allows for quick, reliable and personal contact between students and lecturers. [...] Our secretary runs the show and is the best. "
EAH Jena made it possible for me to write my Master's thesis in Japan. [...] I also found the programme itself to be well structured and the professors were always easy and quick to contact if I had any queries."
"Very well equipped laboratory with competent support."
