BA/BS in Elektrotechnik

Electrical Engineering at Technische Hochschule Mannheim is an English-taught route into the university's electrical engineering degree, designed for students who want to begin their studies before reaching an advanced level of German. The first semesters are delivered in English, with German-language classes built into the timetable so students can transition smoothly into the German-taught specialist modules later in the programme. From the fourth semester onward, students choose one of three specialisations: automation and the industrial Internet of Things, power engineering and renewable energy, or e-mobility and autonomous driving. These tracks connect classical electrical-engineering fundamentals with current industry demands in digitalisation, clean energy and vehicle automation, combining lectures, laboratory work and project-based learning. The seven-semester course targets school leavers holding a general or subject-restricted higher education entrance qualification, a Fachhochschulreife, or an equivalent certificate, and the Mannheim location gives students direct access to the region's strong electrical-engineering and automotive industry for internships and thesis projects.
