Programme

Graduates of the Master Program Green Mobility Engineering (GME) are able to meet the requirements of future mobility systems regarding the conversation of natural resources and environment protection as well as social acceptance, and to drive the re-orientation regarding energy and utilization efficiency, zero emission level, neutral CO2-balance, safety, comfort and affordability. Therewith they supplement and replace existing technologies.
For this purpose, they acquire an extensive and structured system-knowledge, divided into the subsystems automotive (with its components, functional elements and materials), driver, traffic, infrastructure, markets and society.
They are capable to analyze complex systems by taking relevant interdependencies between subsystems and level of details into account and deriving approaches for sustainable mobility and automotive concepts. Methods and processes needed for an efficient development of technical, economical and in the market successful and innovative solutions are familiar to the graduates. Moreover graduates are capable to reduce complexity by means of innovative problem solution methods and further creativity approaches.

For that, they will attain knowledge, skills, capabilities and competences in the fields of energy efficient combustion machines, regenerative fuels, energy sources and storages, safe and efficient propulsion systems, efficient use of available energy in the car, lightweight design, control and regulation concepts, architectures and technologies, E-Engines, power electronics, embedded electronic systems, sensor data processing, production systems for electro mobility, drivability, models of human behavior, noise and vibration comfort, advanced driver assistance systems, car-to-car and car-to-infrastructure communication systems, automated perception of environment by cars, autonomous vehicles, mobility supply and demand, holistic CO2-balance and smart supply of energy.

Next official start: March 2013; earlier start possible upon open places and request.

Organisation

The HECTOR School of Engineering and Management, named after Dr. h. c. Hans-Werner Hector, the co-founder of the software company SAP, is the Technology Business School of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT).

The HECTOR School concept and the related programs were designed in strong cooperation with the industry board of the ID in 2004. This cooperation has contributed significantly towards the creation of six advanced executive degree programs offered at the HECTOR School.

Our degree programs are tailored to the needs of the employees of expanding companies which are facing the challenges of competition and globalization. The ability to ensure that businesses are cutting-edge and capable of the rapid adaptability of processes is the most crucial challenge for companies today and the responsibility of their well-trained professionals. In order to be a successful manager in this environment it is essential to possess a profound understanding of technological intricacies, their implementation within complex organizations and a deep economical awareness of interdependencies in distributed networks.

This necessary professional and methodological training is covered by our innovative degree programs at the HECTOR School designed for future Executives.

Study in Karlsruhe

Beauty and high technology

Today 270 000 people live in Karlsruhe the centre of the renowned “Technologieregion”, comprising one of the most dynamic high-tech areas in Europe. The local economy is based on a well-developed structure of mid-sized businesses, particularly in forward-reaching technologies like computer science, multimedia, control systems, energy technology and environmental science as well as nanotechnology. Several major companies such as Bosch, Siemens, DaimlerChrysler and Michelin have production facilities in the region. Major research and development institutions such the Karlsruhe Research Center for Technology and the Environment are part of the reason why the innovative potential of this city and region are well known world wide. A critical cornerstone is formed by the University and six other Karlsruhe institutions of higher education.

The city has also served as the home of justice in Germany for over 50 years. In 1950 the Federal Supreme Court began its work here as the highest authority in civil and criminal proceedings in Germany.

High Tech and High Life come together at the internationally recognized Center for Art and Media (ZKM), which is located in a historic industrial building and provides a unique museum of modern media.
