Mechanical engineering

I was able to try things out in a special atmosphere and a unique free space. What was taught at the HRW really resonated with me. The cooperation with Siemens for the dual mechanical engineering degree programme also offers me a wide range of international opportunities. Whether engineering or technical sales, everything is open to me. It was challenging and you have to be up for it, but I also enjoyed my student life.

Mechanical engineering is more creative than I expected. It was only a stone's throw between the apprenticeship at Siemens and the HRW. I was able to link everything I had seen, learnt and experienced in practice at the company with the content of my studies. If you know how large gas turbines work, you can calculate and optimise their performance. What I appreciate about the HRW is that it has modern facilities and, above all, the proximity to the professors.

Studying mechanical engineering at HRW means learning in small groups, direct contact with professors and a high level of practical relevance through project work, Bachelor's and Master's theses. Parallel to my studies, I had the opportunity to participate in the establishment and development of HRW.

Studying mechanical engineering at the Ruhr West University of Applied Sciences (HRW) has shown me how versatile mechanical engineering can be. In a relaxed atmosphere, you can gain insights into exciting technologies such as virtual reality, computer-aided product development, 3D printing and much more as part of numerous internships in our laboratories. I feel well prepared for my professional life and look forward to future challenges.
