Mechanical Engineering - Bachelor's study program

Information for prospective students

Course content, study program structure, and the application process – guidance and information on the Bachelor's study program in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Stuttgart.

Study program structure and content

At the university, you focus on fundamentals and methods, delving deeply into the theory of your field. You don't just learn to use formulas, but also to understand and derive them on your own. This enables you to solve complex problems in both practice and research and to independently acquire new areas of knowledge. This is also the fundamental difference to studying at a University of Applied Sciences or a dual university.

Before starting your studies, you complete a six-week pre-study internship. The purpose of the internship is to gain practical insight into the production of workpieces, their processing and functionality, as well as the social structures within a company.

Studying abroad

Intercultural exchange, enhanced language skills, fresh perspectives on your field of study, exciting adventures, lifelong global friendships, personal growth, and a valuable boost to your CV — all this and more awaits you during a stay abroad! Are you interested in studying abroad for one or two semesters, or doing a language course or an internship, or would you like to take part in a summer school? The International Office will help you to make your stay a reality.
