Leibniz University Hannover, with its traditional technical and engineering orientation, has renowned technical faculties. The education of future industrial engineers benefits from this. Courses from the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration and the Faculties of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering and Computer Science are combined. Building on a six-semester Bachelor's programme, the four-semester Master's programme further deepens the technical knowledge already acquired. In addition, students can choose a further specialisation subject from the wide range of subjects offered in economics and business administration, thus taking advantage of the entire spectrum of economic sciences.
