Study programme

Engineering (Ingenieurwesen) Bachelor of Engineering

Apply now for the winter semester of 2026/27.

1 Study programme 5 different specializations

The bachelor's degree program in engineering (Ingenieurwesen) follows an innovative concept. Since the fields of application for engineers are broad, this degree program also offers various perspectives. In the first two semesters, the basics of engineering are taught and first impressions of the possible specializations are given. Only at the beginning of the third semester do students choose a specialization based on their individual interests and strengths in which to continue their studies.

Studies

Students test self-constructed current generator off Heligoland

In the future, waves and currents are to be used as a versatile and climate-neutral source of electrical energy from the sea. But this energy source can also be used on a small scale. However, the extreme environmental conditions of the open sea not only place high demands on technology and maintenance, but also require new and further developments. Students at Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences have designed a current generator in a project that not only withstands water pressure, but also supplies itself with energy autonomously from tidal currents. Supported by Debstedter Astro Motoren GmbH & Co.KG, the Alfred Wegener Institute in Bremerhaven and Berufliche Bildung Bremerhaven GmbH, they were able to build a prototype and launch it during a research trip off Heligoland.

Students from Bremerhaven are developing an autonomous monitoring platform for the DLR to make ports safer

A team comprising three students from Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences and researchers has successfully modified and tested an autonomous boat fitted with sensors on Heligoland. In collaboration with the German Aerospace Centre (Deutsches Zentrum für Luf- und Raumfahrt), the students developed a modular platform for the boat which could improve the protection of maritime infrastructure in future.

Hands-on wind energy: Students develop a miniature wind turbine on Heligoland

Two students from Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences have designed a miniature wind turbine which is intended to serve as a teaching model to illustrate how the technology works. On Heligoland, Alisa Küther and Kjell Banck – who are both studying the Marine Engineering and Wind Energy degree programme – tested their model and gained valuable experience – not only in technical matters, but also in teamwork and project management.
