Do you like technology and would like to learn how to develop innovative ideas and transform them into functional machines and products for tomorrow? Study mechanical engineering at the SRH!
Do you like technology and would like to learn how to develop innovative ideas and transform them into functional machines and products for tomorrow? Study mechanical engineering at the SRH!
With the fundamental subjects (mathematics, physics, technical mechanics, CAD, electrical engineering, thermodynamics) you will immediately dive deeper into the exciting world of engineering. Building on these basics, you will then analyze technical questions and develop innovative solutions (machine elements, innovation management, product development). You will apply this knowledge in your industrial internship.
During your further study lectures, you will also deepen your knowledge of programming and calculating (finite elements) of more complex tasks. Furthermore you will apply all of your skills to questions relating to vehicle and drive technology (basics of mobility), turbomachinery and power plant technology.
You will also gain insights into the automation of production lines (control and automation technology, robot technology).
With this broad basics you are very well prepared for your future professional life as a mechanical engineer. Or would you like to add a Master's degree course? This is also possible with this internationally recognized bachelor's degree program!
With a master's degree, or you start your professional life straight away and in a practical manner. With this degree program you have the very best chances of finding interesting and challenging positions in industry or science.
Graduates from previous years are very successful and predominantly work as:

If you are interested in studying mechanical engineering, you can send us your application online via the applicant portal. An application test will then be carried out. This test includes tasks from the following areas
We will then conduct an interview with you in which we want to get to know you personally and in which we will also use the following criteria to assess whether we can admit you to the mechanical engineering programme:
If you have any questions or difficulties with your application, please get in touch with your contact person.
Please note that special conditions apply to applicants from some countries:
From 1st of November 2022, applicants from India will be required to have their documents verified by the Academic Evaluation Centre New Delhi (APS-India) before applying for a visa. After successful verification you will receive a certificate which allows you to initiate the visa process. Please note that the verification process at APS-India is expected to take approximately 4 weeks. We recommend that you apply for the APS certificate at the same time as you apply to SRH University Heidelberg. For more information, go to the APS-India website: www.aps-india.de
The procedure of the Academic Evaluation Centre of the Cultural Section at the German Embassy in Bejing (Akademische Prüfstelle – APS) must have been successfully completed before you apply. The centre checks documents for authenticity and conducts interviews. The original APS certificate must be enclosed with the application documents. For more information, go to the APS website at: www.aps.org.cn.
Please note that you don’t need to complete the APS procedure if you apply for our 3+1 programmes.
The Academic Evaluation Centre of the German Embassy in Hanoi has been checking the university entrance qualifications of Vietnamese applicants since 2007.
