Studying at the TUM Department of Mechanical Engineering
With about 5000 students enrolled in
winter semester 2016/17, the Department
of Mechanical Engineering is one of the
largest departments of the Technical Uni-
versity of Munich (TUM) by the number of
students. In terms of teaching, the depart-
ment offers study programs that combine
the classical, in-depth education for
mechanical engineers with new aspects
such as cutting-edge technology, interdis-
ciplinary research and the development
of ‘soft skills’, thus preparing students for
their future in research, development and/
or production.
The Department of Mechanical Engineer-
ing offers a Bachelor’s degree program
and ten Master’s degree programs (see
table below).
In addition, the Department of Mechanical
Engineering collaborates with other TUM
departments and offers Bachelor’s and
Master’s degree programs ‘Teaching at
Vocational Schools – Metal Engineering’
(run by the TUM School of Education) and
‘Chemical Engineering’ (led by the Faculty
for Chemistry), Master’s programs ‘Power
Engineering’ (run by the Department of
Electrical and Information Technology)
and ‘Robotics, Cognition, Intelligence’
(run by the Department for Computer
Science), the Bachelor’s program ‘Engi-
neering Sciences’ as well as the Master’s
programs ‘Industrial Biotechnology’ and
‘Human Factors Engineering’ (run by the
Munich School of Engineering).
At the international level, the Department
of Mechanical Engineering participates in
the joint Bachelor’s program ‘Engineering
Sciences’ with Paris-Lodron University
Salzburg as well as the joint Master’s
program ‘Aerospace Engineering’ with the
Nanyang Technological University (NTU)
