Professional skills

With your comprehensive, interdisciplinary knowledge in areas such as energy, environmental and process engineering qualifies you to provide a pragmatic decision-basis for questions of energy and environmental technologies and systems. Above all, you can systematically analyse, describe, model and simulate complex technical processes across disciplines. This enables you to develop efficient and resource-saving systems and processes and, in addition, to provide sophisticated services. Your profound proficiencies enables you to work in interdisciplinary teams, to lead larger projects and to take on management tasks in the fields of energy, process and environmental technology.

Recommended modules

Technical Scientific Specialisation (TSM):

Fundamental Theoretical Principles (FTP):

Context Modules (CM):

Differentiation to bachelor level

As graduates of the MSE Energy and Environment, your in-depth specialist knowledge enables you to conduct and lead applied research and development at the forefront of the respective domain. You acquire extensive expertise in the broad topic of energy and the environment. This expanded competence enables you to integrate multidisciplinary techniques into complex energy processes and systems. The Master's programme is also strongly oriented towards developing your skills in the field of environmental protection and the implementation of sustainable processes.
