Master

About the Program

Expand your knowledge in computational intelligence and become an expert in digital engineering! The MSc Computer-Aided Conception and Production in Mechanical Engineering (MSc CAME) incorporates most recent topics in computer-aided engineering (CAE) by providing a deep understanding of methods, technologies and software tools used to design and develop digital models of complex technical systems, objects or products. In particular, the programme focuses on advanced computer simulation software required for the creation of digital twins, which significantly improve the accuracy and reliability of design tasks in mechanical engineering. In addition, sound interdisciplinary engineering knowledge in the finite element methods, numerical methods, continuum mechanics or multibody dynamics will be conveyed in lectures.  Your studies – your choice: choose a study track To equip you with the specialisation you need for your individual career path, we offer two study tracks in the MSc CAME: Conception of Machines In this design-oriented track, you will focus on: the development and application of modern software-based methods focused on construction and dimensioning of structures and systems the use of complex technical drawings the improvement of digital models and designs according to operational requirements Production of Machines In this production-oriented track, you will focus on: the development and use of software-based tools and solutions in modern industrial production the design, modelling and simulations of manufacturing processes the life cycle prediction of materials, elements, and components
