Resource efficiency makes sense from an economic and ecological point of view. Even for mechanical engineering companies, which today more than ever are caught between the three influencing factors of environment, society and technology, the efficient use of resources is the key factor for success. The Master’s programme teaches you procedures and technologies that enable promising products to optimally fulfil their function with the lowest possible consumption of materials and energy.

“During my studies at Esslingen University of Applied Sciences, I learned to approach issues analytically. This method now helps me with the development of strategies for my customers. I also appreciated the comfortable group sizes in the semesters. They enabled exchange with the teaching staff and promoted the learning process. My tip: During your studies, take advantage of the opportunity to gain insights into different companies and departments.”
Larissa Tropp, Alumna of the Master's degree programme in Resource Efficiency in Mechanical Engineering
I started my Mechanical Engineering studies directly after my vocational training as an industrial mechanic. During the training, I worked a lot with mechanical engineers and I really liked their areas of responsibility. I chose Esslingen University of Applied Sciences because it has a very good reputation in education and teaching Among other things, Esslingen University of Applied Sciences has very good laboratories where you can put your theoretical knowledge into practice and maintains very good regional contacts with large companies.
