MBA&E: Business Administration and Engineering

Multifaceted and interdisciplinary

The weighting of the course content of the MBA&E establishes a dual focus on topics drawn equally from business administration and technological subjects. Graduates from this course are equipped not only with exceptional specialist skills, but develop an analytical mind-set applicable to a variety of industries and business functions. We seek to train every MBA&E graduate to become a robust, interdisciplinary problem solver – professional, creative and collaborative.

Close to business practice

As a postgraduate programme of study, the course accepts applications from students with backgrounds in engineering, management, and more. As a young professional, you already possess the in-depth skills specific to your discipline. By taking the MBA&E, you will develop a holistic understanding of the wider business process. MBA&E graduates are "gap-bridgers" – specialists in their respective functions yet fully conversant with mainstream results-oriented management practices. Global companies need such "T-shaped people" - would you like to become one?

Personal and international

The MBA&E family of students and graduates is drawn from over 40 countries throughout the globe. Mechanical engineering, industrial management, intercultural communication, economics, material sciences, aeroplane design, nuclear physics and software engineering – these represent but a handful of the backgrounds from which our students come. Can you imagine a broader networking opportunity? This course is all about learning vital business skills in a tight knit international group. Experiencing one of the world’s most culturally diverse cities, you will have the opportunity to improve your soft skills, to form lasting friendships and simply to have fun.

We look forward to welcoming you to the MBA&E family!

New specialization "Automotive Management"

Germany is one of the key hotsponts of the automotive sector around the globe. The industry is changing constantly and has many new challenges to master. Thus, there is a strong demand for young business engineering graduates on the job market. In addition, the car industry is expected to grow rapidly in the so called emerging countries, granting our international graduates an advantage in employment back in their home countries.

The MBA&E program is so far the only English spoken business engineering programme in Germany with a special focus on Automotive Management. Many of our graduates start their careers with automotive players and we maintain very close relationships to the industry. Therefore, we will be launching a new specialization addressing the specific needs of the automotive OEMs and automotive supplier industry in the upcoming winter semester 2013 (October).
