Modern mechatronics combines software with moving, physical components. It creates networked systems that link mechanics, electronics and computer science in many applications: from efficient, high-performance industrial automation to smart everyday devices. You will learn - from sensors to drives to controls - the necessary basics and delve into the planning and implementation of these cyber-physical systems.

Main focus:

  • Measurement & Control Engineering
  • Automation & Robotics Applications
  • Engineering Mechanics & Drive Technology

Media Informatics & Image Processing

Both privately and in business, we are constantly networked. But how do laptops, servers, smartphones or industrial equipment communicate with each other?
ITS Bachelor in Network and Communication Technology

In the Bachelor's specialization "Network and Communication Technology" you will deal with the planning and implementation of computer networks. You will learn to understand the language of networks and Internet protocols and deal with important topics for securing networks.

The content is closely linked to the official Cisco Networking Academy and enables you to obtain the internationally recognized "Cisco Certified Network Associate" (CCNA) certification. Practical examples and modern equipped labs provide you with the ideal prerequisites for training to become an IT expert with networking skills.

Main focus:

  • Network management
  • Network architectures
  • Mobile technologies
  • Internet routing & security
