Engineering Cybernetics: autonomy, robotics, and beyond
How do you safely land a rocket? What does it take to make a robot move like a human being?
The Master’s program in Engineering Cybernetics at the University of Stuttgart equips students with the skills to analyze and control complex dynamic systems through advanced control, modeling, and optimization techniques. The program bridges theory and application and prepares graduates to drive innovation in autonomous systems, robotics, and other advanced engineering fields.
- Located in one of Germany’s leading engineering and economic hubs with strong industry partnerships
- Bridges theory and real-world applications through hands-on projects and industry internships
- Offers flexible specialization options in control, optimization, and cyber-physical systems
- Provides access to state-of-the-art labs and interdisciplinary innovation networks that support advanced research in autonomous systems, robotics, and AI
- Builds on a tradition of excellence since its establishment at the University of Stuttgart in 1972 and has educated generations of leading academics, scientists, and engineers who help shape industry in the region
This study program requires a background in advanced mathematics and systems and control as well as in the modeling of dynamical systems. Because these disciplines form the foundation of the Master’s program in Engineering Cybernetics, your application should demonstrate coursework in these areas. In addition, we expect strong motivation to address both theoretical and applied problems.
To help you assess whether your background meets the program requirements, we have prepared a set of sample problems for your self-assessment. These problems reflect the minimum level of prior knowledge required to successfully complete the Master’s program in Engineering Cybernetics. The problems cover only core baseline concepts and are intended solely for self-assessment purposes. They are not part of the application process.
