What is the degree program about?
Electromobility is a central component of a sustainable and climate-friendly transportation system based on renewable energies.
According to current studies, electric cars will already be cheaper to manufacture than combustion-powered cars from around 2025 on. For this reason, the industry is looking for engineers with in-depth knowledge of electromobility.
-
The requirements for a degree program in „Electromobility“ go far beyond the pure electrification of e.g. combustion drives.
Therefore, the degree program „Electromobility-ACES“ („ACES“ in reference to/further development of the „McKinsey ACES 2019 survey“) comprises four specialization areas „ACES“. These reflect the competencies of the Faculty of Engineering for the future of mobility:
- AI & Autonomous driving (e.g., Autonomous driving with Artificial Intelligence)
- Connectivity (e.g., vehicle networking, smart grids)
- E-Powertrain (from charging technology and battery to wheel)
- Sustainable mobility & Production Technology (e.g. sustainable production, environmentally friendly power generation, car sharing)
The interdisciplinary degree program bundles the extensive existing competencies of the Faculty of Technology in these areas in teaching and represents an attractive offer for prospective students.
