Key Summary
About: The B.Eng. in Energy Systems Engineering at European Campus Rottal‑Inn in Pfarrkirchen trains engineers in energy generation, conversion and storage. You’ll focus on renewables such as wind, solar and geothermal, decentralized systems and intelligent power grids. The course is taught in English at a modern university founded in 1994.
Career Outcomes:
Career opportunities: development of energy systems and smart grids, smart building energy management, commissioning and maintenance, monitoring and assessment, electricity and gas network management, project planning and consultancy. English instruction prepares you for national and international roles in renewable energy, grid engineering, energy consultancy and sustainable infrastructure.
We humans take it for granted that we will always have access to energy. At any time, in unlimited quantities and almost anywhere. The future of our energy supply lies in renewable energies such as wind power, geothermal energy or solar energy. In the Energy Systems Engineering degree programme at the European Campus Rottal-Inn in Pfarrkirchen, you will be trained as an engineer for energy systems technology and deal with energy generation, conversion, storage, use and transport. This enables you to shape the change in the energy supply system away from fossil raw materials as an energy source towards renewable energies. With your help, for example, new supply concepts are created, you deal with decentralised energy systems, you ensure the security of the energy supply or further develop the intelligent power grid. Everything for a more sustainable and environmentally friendly energy industry.

Subject Overview
Overview of the courses (From the Study and Examination Regulations), Weekly Semester Hours (SWS), and ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System) for the program Energy Systems Engineering.
As a student of Energy Systems Engineering, you will be trained as an Engineer with the skills to convert power supplies from fossil fuels to renewable sources of energy, involved in a range of areas such as power generation, conversion, transport, usage, and storage. You will learn through practical and theoretical instruction to explore the technical and economic aspects of current energy systems, to gain in-depth cross-sectional expertise in the supply, integration, and storage of future energy systems. Your future could be at the forefront of this exciting transitional period, you could shape the development of emerging power supply concepts, be involved in the decentralization of energy systems, or work on the continued development of smart power grids.
As an Engineer with excellent global qualification, you could create a sustainable and more environmentally friendly power industry for the future.
There are several opportunities to partially finance your studies through a scholarship, particuarly if you are an ambitious or talented student. However, please be informed that we only give scholarships to students who already have studied at DIT at least one semester. The grades students achieve here at DIT as well as extracurricular activities are relevant and considered during the evaluation of the eligibility for scholarships.
The transformation of energy systems and their supply technologies is an exciting area, regarded as a major global development challenge that will remain dominant over the lifespan of your future career. Expect to develop your career as a graduate in the following fields:
- Development of energy systems and smart grids.
- Smart buildings: design and development of intelligent energy management systems.
- Deploying, commissioning, service, and maintenance.
- Monitoring and assessment of energy systems.
- Management of energy networks (electricity and gas).
- Project planning.
You will be taught completely in English and this language training, coupled with intercultural aspects of the course, will perfectly prepare you for success in the national and international job market.
