The program provides in-depth knowledge and understanding of energy technology, energy systems, and energy-related processes. It particularly focuses on industrial R&D practice and modern energy production, conversion and distribution processes.
The program also aims to enhance the students´ ability to lead and coordinate project teams, and to strengthen their skills in scientific documentation and communication.
Energy engineers work in a multitude of areas within energy and power industry or within automotive industry, including research and development, design, sales and distribution, quality management and organization. In granting the M.Sc. degree the program gives the graduate a degree which is recognized around the world.
Graduates will be qualified to work in a multitude of different areas of industry, including research and development, design, manufacturing and production. In granting the RWTH Master Degree, the programme gives the graduate a degree that is recognised world-wide and qualifies for further PhD studies.
Contents
This program is comprised of core courses, compulsory courses and elective courses.
* Automatic Control
* Internal Combustion Engine Fundamentals & Energy Conversion Machinery
* Heat and Mass Transfer
* Automotive Engineering I
* German Language Course as a general ton-technical elective course
* Fluid Dynamics
* Energy Economics
* Internal Combustion Engines
* Internal Combustion Engines II

* Engine Acoustics and NVH
To achieve a Master of Science in Combustion Engines, students have to satisfy certain requirements by taking six core courses and six compulsory courses, selecting one technical elective (the non-technical elective is the German Language course). Additionally for an introduction into industrial employment an internship of nine weeks has to be done followed by a Mini Thesis and a Master Thesis at the end of the studies. These offer the opportunity to either deepen one´s favorite engineering science area, or possibly engage in an applied case study of a real industrial problem.
