Our curriculum is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of various aspects of mechanical engineering, including manufacturing, design, analysis, and research.
"The OVGU is systemaccredited where all study programs are regularly evaluated together with students, alumni, external reviewers, & industrial partners"
The courses also incorporate modern technologies such as automation, simulation, and robotics, which prepare students for the future demands of the industry. Besides the classical engineering subjects, we also have a strong focus on the planning, control, and logistics of modern manufacturing systems and supply chains”. The faculty offers international students three unique English Master's programs in ‘Systems Engineering for Manufacturing’ (SEM), ‘Biomechanical Engineering’ (BiME), and ‘Computation Methods in Engineering’ (CoME). Project-orientated modules have been implemented in all study courses. Here the students are solving problems in small teams. They learn how to organize, document, and present their work. Som of the projects are directly linked to industry and run in direct cooperation. The faculty also leverages the partnerships OVGU has with various research institutions including the Fraunhofer Institute for Factory Operation and Automation IFF and other companies providing students with opportunities for internships, research projects, and collaborations.

The Faculty of Process & Systems Engineering
The Faculty for Process & Systems Engineering has four institutes - the Institute of Process Engineering (IVT), the Institute of Instrumental & Environmental Technology (IAUT), the Institute of Fluid Dynamics and Thermodynamics (ISUT), and the Institute of Chemistry (ICH). Also, there are almost 20 chairs doing research in several disciplines including research on - Particle technology and particle systems, Chemical product development and analytical product characterization, Innovative material and energy transformation processes, Dynamics of process engineering systems, and Probability methods in engineering calculations.
Talking more about the unique learning experiences offered by the faculty, Prof. Dr. Franziska Scheffler, Vice Dean Faculty of Process & Systems Engineering says, “Our curriculum is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of various aspects of chemical and process engineering, including biotechnology, safety, and research. Besides the classical engineering subjects, it also has a strong focus on the planning, control, and simulation of new processes.
Aside from this, we also offer international students two unique English Master programs in Chemical and Energy Engineering (CEE) and Process Safety and Environmental Engineering (PSEE)”. CEE aims at providing the students with in-depth knowledge and competencies in chemical and energy engineering which enables them to use new scientific methods for their work and to master a broad variety of permanent new challenges in the fields of research, practical application of scientific results, and teaching.
