Production and Logistics
(Bachelor of Science)

A special feature at the start of the programme is the practice-oriented Bachelor’s project. Working as part of a group, students tackle contemporary research and practical issues within the department’s institutes. Students can choose from a total of 13 projects offered across the two areas of specialisation “Production Technology” and “Technical Logistics and Supply Chain Management”. The project enables students to gain practical experience and develop task-oriented approaches. In addition, the area of specialisation is mainly composed of technical content during the first four semesters. The curriculum includes subjects such as Mathematics, Engineering Mechanics and Electrical Engineering. From the third semester onwards, students have the opportunity to select specialisation modules, taking courses in the areas of operational management, business management and production technology. The fundamental modules of the degree programme include advanced business disciplines. The engineering degree programme is complemented by laboratory practicals and a specialised tutorial. Students have the option to undertake practical training. The sixth semester is set aside for the Bachelor’s thesis, which concludes the programme.

It is essential that students are good at figures, since mathematical problems feature strongly in undergraduate studies. An understanding of physics, engineering and, to some extent, chemistry is also advantageous. Students should also been keen to improve production processes. In addition, they should be able to think economically and realistically, and to get to the bottom of relationships in economics.

Graduates with a Bachelor’s degree in Production and Logistics are able to work as engineers in companies that specialise in production and logistics processes. Examples of their tasks include planning and implementing the manufacturing process of goods and ensuring the optimal deployment of production facilities. Graduates find employment in business management, quality control, production, materials management and logistics.
