Key Summary
The Carl Benz School of Engineering offers high school graduates the unique opportunity to study internationally renowned German engineering in English. The 3-year bachelor’s program aims to prepare future engineers for a successful career.
The Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) is ranked #1 in employability amongst all German universities and achieves numerous top placements in the field of engineering every year. As the Mechanical Engineering College of the KIT, the Carl Benz School of Engineering offers high-quality lectures by excellent professors of the KIT. All students receive an individualized all-in-one service package, support, additional training and study guidance in order to develop their professional profile.
Specialization in Mobility Systems
The Mobility Systems specialization offers students the opportunity to develop pioneering solutions for global mobility challenges. From electric cars to high-speed trains - shape the mobility of tomorrow!
Students develop an awareness of people's global mobility needs and how these will be met by technical systems over time. They acquire in-depth knowledge of motorized vehicles for ground-based transport, such as cars, trucks, buses, rail vehicles, streetcars, subway trains, agricultural and forestry vehicles and commercial vehicles. They also deepen their knowledge of driving mechanics, drive concepts, torque conversion and central vehicle components. After successfully completing the program, graduates will be able to derive requirements for vehicles in relation to specific mobility systems, evaluate concepts and design central components and systems composed of them.
Book a time to speak with our program counselors
At Carl Benz School, students begin developing their skills with fundamental courses (Semester 1 - 4). In the last year of their studies (Semester 5 - 6), the students can choose, according to their interest and strengths, between the majors of Automotive Engineering, Energy Engineering, or Global Production Management. This way, they are given the opportunity to specialize in one of the most promising subjects relevant for the future of Engineering.
To make sure that the students are well prepared for their final exams, some subjects require fulfilling certain criteria in order to register for the examniation like scoring enough points by completing assignments or quizzes.
The curriculum is completed by supplementary studies, such as language courses, career workshops, academic writing, cultural studies, as well as networking and social events in the CBS College Program. Besides the academic program, the students are also encouraged to join our Smart Projects. This experience develops their personal career perspectives and might provide them with an industry network during their studies.
