Shape the Future of Production — Study Manufacturing Technology (M.Sc.) at TU Dortmund University!
Course Description
TU Dortmund University’s M.Sc. in Manufacturing Technology blends rigorous engineering science with hands-on experimentation in state-of-the-art labs. Taught fully in English, the program trains students to analyze, model, and optimize machining, forming, materials, and polymer processes from first principles to factory floor. Close ties to research groups and industry enable data-driven problem solving on real setups—bridging simulation, measurement, and quality assurance. Small cohorts and an international classroom foster teamwork, scientific writing, and leadership for advanced manufacturing.
The program seeks graduates in mechanical or closely related engineering who enjoy bridging theory and practice, thrive in lab environments, and are eager to model, simulate, measure, and optimize processes. Ideal candidates are analytical team players with solid fundamentals in mechanics and materials, a curiosity for automation and data, and the ambition to contribute to research-driven industrial innovation.
