Automotive Mechatronics and Management University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria

Overview

Innovations for the Future of Mobility

Rapid developments in vehicle engineering have led to a merging of the fields of Mechanics, Electronics and Informatics. One cause of this is that vehicles meet customer demands by the optimal interplay of various mechanical and electronic components. Many functions in the areas of comfort, safety and efficiency are only made possible by mechatronic systems. In this context specific expertise in the mechatronic disciplines, combined with social- and business economics competences, will be central requirements of future employees and managers in the motor vehicle industry. Precisely these requirements are the focus of the new Master’s degree programme Automotive Mechatronics and Management from the University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria.

Career

This international master’s degree program meets the industry’s demand for engineers who can combine complex individual components into innovative mechatronic systems with improved or completely new functions and, in doing so, think and act under consideration of qualitative and cost aspects. The fields of activity of graduates are, therefore, in the execution and management of mechatronic development projects, in the design and validation of mechatronic vehicle systems or as quality engineers in the field of quality assurance in the product development process.
