Overview

Students can choose between two specialization tracks to best fit their career and research interest, one focusing on conception and simulation, the other on production of machines.

Program Learning Outcomes

As a CAME Graduate you will

design, apply and optimize cutting-edge computer modeling for the development of high-tech products

engineer computer simulation software and simulation programs to enhance mechanical design and production

land top jobs at research institutes or in the industry as consultants and engineers in the fields of CAD and CAE

The program M.Sc. Computer Aided Conception and Production in Mechanical Engineering from RWTH Aachen University offers two specializations: "Conception of Machines" and "Production of Machines". Students need to decide which specialization they would like to pursue.

Study Track: Conception of Machines

In the study track "Conception of Machines", students learn to develop and apply modern computer-aided methods aimed at constructing and dimensioning structures and systems in accordance with functional requirements. The core compulsory courses in this specialization focus on the fundamentals of structural mechanics, computational analysis, and computer-aided design.

Study Track: Production of Machines

In the study track "Production of Machines", students learn to develop and use computer-aided systems in modern industrial production, which includes manufacturing technology, production systems, and production management. The core courses in this specialization focus on topics such as quality management, control engineering and industrial engineering.
