About the faculty

Mechanical Engineering: Preserving traditions, shaping innovations!

The Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Ostfalia has stood for a strong combination of experience, research and modern teaching since 1971. As one of the founding departments of the university, we have many years of expertise - and are constantly developing further.

Our centrepiece: state-of-the-art laboratory equipment with over 20 laboratories on an area of 2700 square metres as well as our large machine hall. Here we bring theory and practice together, encourage independent work and provide space for creative solutions - for our students, our partners and anyone who is enthusiastic about technology.

We have been working closely with companies for 25 years to actively promote knowledge transfer and jointly drive forward future topics. With us, knowledge does not remain in the lecture theatre. Thanks to our strong industrial partners, we offer our students practical training at the highest level and the best career opportunities - whether classic or dual.

And because standing still is not our thing, we conduct research into topics such as digitalisation, Industry 4.0 and sustainability, always with the aim of thinking outside the box and bringing fresh impetus to society and the economy

Whether you are planning a degree programme, looking to interact with our department or are interested in our research - we look forward to introducing you to the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering!

Your Faculty of Mechanical Engineering

Questions for the faculty

  1. What sets us apart

    One faculty, three specialisations. At our Wolfenbüttel campus, you will find three fully integrated institutes with different specialisations that conduct research in specific areas and teach course content. We want you to experience practical work up close and learn from real-life examples. Get ready for a varied and practice-orientated degree course!

    1. Institute for Design and Applied Mechanical Engineering (IKAM)
    2. Institute of Mechatronics (IMEC)
    3. Institute of Production Technology (IPT)

     

  2. Which means: Personal.

    You are the centre of development.

    • We provide personalised support in small groups and encourage your individual technical interests with a high level of practical relevance through labs, exercises and case studies.
    • We are characterised by a family-like relationship with our students, based on appreciation, recognition and cohesion
    • With us, you can develop freely and informally. We make our knowledge available to you and support your independent development.

  3. What does digital mean?

    Technologies you can touch

    • We make digitalisation and information processing tangible. We create things in the "Internet of Things" and have the digital concepts for these products!
    • We live mechanical engineering knowledge with over 95 years of experience and continue to develop digitally as the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.
    • Our teaching staff and employees work "at the cutting edge" with Industry 4.0, AI, autonomous driving, cyber-physical systems, virtual product development and much more.

  4. Which means: Practical.

    Skills for your whole life.

    • We maintain contacts with large and small companies in the region and are constantly developing our teaching together with our practice partners.
    • All of our lecturers come from a practical background and know what skills you need to succeed as an engineer in the future
