Aeronautical and space technology

Bachelor's degree programmes

Tina Sankul, 21, 5th semester aerospace engineering, aircraft construction

I came into contact with aeroplanes at an early age. Back then, I could often fly with my father and watch him tinker with his aircraft. This led to my interest in technology at an early age, and it was already clear to me long before my Abitur (university entrance qualification) that I wanted to start studying at FH Aachen. I didn't miss the opportunity to specialise directly in aerospace engineering.
To this day, I have not regretted my decision.
The best thing about my degree programme is its practical relevance. I have been part of the student project aero | race lab for two semesters. In this project, I teach students about fluid mechanics by taking several experiments to schools and explaining the basics of fluid mechanics. For a few months now, I have also been in charge of the project. Together with a fellow student, I take care of the scheduling and organisation.
Later, I would like to move towards aircraft design and work in development or research.

Daniel Jansen, 20, 5th semester Aerospace, aircraft construction

Why am I studying aircraft construction at FH Aachen? Well, there are a few good reasons. For me, Aachen was the obvious choice for my university long before I graduated from high school. I've been interested in science and technology for as long as I can remember, so it was a natural choice. Aachen isn't far from home, so it's a good fit. Well, and why the FH? It's quite simple. I've been flying gliders since I was 14, and these huge flying giants have fascinated me for years. So why not study aeronautical engineering in Faculty 6 at FH Aachen and specialise directly? Why study a normal mechanical engineering degree first, when I can be equipped with specialist knowledge in the direction of aircraft right from the first semester? I think these questions are self-evident.

Since I've been here at the UAS, I've been amazed every day. I am amazed at how open the professors are, just like their staff and everyone who walks around our faculty. No matter when you have a question, you can go to the professors and get a very good answer.

I'm also fascinated by the practical relevance. Practical trainings take place every semester, which try to give you an understanding of the problems you will face later in your professional life. I find that these practical trainings are very useful, bring learning success and, above all, are a lot of fun. Where else do you have the opportunity to reach into the exhaust jet of an engine or to design and build an entire model plane yourself?

Karina Szych, 20, 5th semester Aerospace Engineering, Space Technology

Why am I studying space technology? Because space is fascinating. Working on things in space is a special challenge; almost everything you do has a certain uniqueness.
Even when I was little, I found science and technology interesting. I always enjoyed watching "Wissen macht Ah!". My enthusiasm only developed further during my school years.
I finally came across the UAS after my A-levels via the website. I was looking for universities and colleges where you can get involved in aerospace right from the start of your studies and not just in the specialisation or even the Master's degree.
What I like about the UAS now is the comparatively small size of our faculty. You can contact the professors directly if you have questions, suggestions or need information, even outside of the lectures. In general, you don't feel left alone; you know your contacts, lecturers and tutors, and if you don't know what to do or have problems, you can always turn to the Faculty Student Council.
I myself was a tutor for mathematics for some time and helped other students practise and prepare for exams. In the meantime, I am part of the µMoon student project, in which we develop an experiment module for a research rocket ourselves. Studying at the UAS is not without its challenges, but the opportunities you have to develop yourself outside of your studies are worth it.
After my Bachelor's degree, I definitely want to do a Master's degree, but probably at another university or college, so that I can gain new impressions and influences. With my studies at the UAS, I will have built a more than good basis for this.

Ian Benecken, 28, 7th semester Aerospace Engineering, Space Technology

Space travel is my passion. It always has been. It all started when my father showed me films like "Apollo 13". Following the space shuttle missions to the international space station on TV and the internet also influenced me to such an extent that I decided to dedicate my professional career to space travel.

Now, after a practical training at the European Astronaut Centre and having gained some experience in the field of spaceflight, I feel strengthened in my decision. I like the international cooperation, the thorough and precise working methods and especially the exploration of new frontiers of what is humanly possible.

I myself, like many others I'm sure, obtained my university entrance qualification for a university of applied sciences at a vocational college. So the nice thing about studying space technology at FH Aachen is that all students, despite different educational backgrounds, can enjoy a high quality of education. The high level is not a deterrent, but an incentive.

The range of our lecturers at the faculty is also broad, so that the most diverse areas of space technology are covered, such as the development and assembly of satellites through to mission operations.

There are also numerous student projects in which you can get involved early on in your studies. For example, I have been a member (now project leader) of a student project with a focus on satellite mission operations since my first semester. For me, this was and is an important balance to the learning-heavy basic studies.

Later, I would like to develop further in the field of astronautical mission operations and hope to be able to use the good connections of our university to ESA and DLR for my professional future.

Master's degree programmes / Total study programme

Sara-Kristina Scheidt, Master, Propulsion (Alumna 2018)

The Master's degree programme gives you the opportunity to specialise in your favourite area within aerospace engineering by choosing the modules you like best. For me, the combination of lectures, practical trainings and projects is the best way to get the deepest understanding of the topics. Additionally, the small groups in each module lead to a good atmosphere for technical discussions. All in all, studying at FH Aachen has given me good basic knowledge for entering the engine industry.

Interview with Josephine Graebener, alumna, at the time of her doctorate at Caltech in the USA

I completed my Bachelor's degree at FH Aachen in 2017 and started a Master's degree at the California Institute of Technology in 2018. I am now in my second year of doctoral studies at Caltech and still look back fondly on my time at FB6.

Why exactly did you study here?
FH Aachen was the perfect mix of theory and practice for me. I had always seen myself more in the theoretical area, so it was very helpful for me to experience the application possibilities live in the practical trainings and to realise how much I enjoy it. Although I am now doing very theoretical research again, in some subjects I had an enormous advantage over my fellow students in the Master's programme, who completed a theoretical degree, and I can imagine working more in the practical field again after my doctorate. Another reason that was very decisive is the size of FB6. It was never a problem to get in touch with professors, whether for references or just questions about the course content.

What did you enjoy most during your studies and did it meet or exceedyour expectations?
I enjoyed my practical project and subsequent Bachelor's thesis in the space laboratory the most. It was very motivating to work independently on a project for the first time. Of course, as a beginner in the field, I had a lot of questions and needed support, but the team in the space lab was always approachable and helped me find my way, both in the project and afterwards, with an incredible amount of support for my doctoral and international ambitions.

What are you annoyed about in your studies, what would you change?
Especially as a woman in technology, it is sad to see how much we are outnumbered, be it among students or teachers. It would be very desirable if there were more female professors at FB6 in the future.

What would you like to say to other prospective students or students in lower semesters?
Be present and don't be afraid to ask the professor directly if you don't understand something. Some subjects are hard work, but it is absolutely worth it to learn exactly what you really want to work on later in the areas of specialisation.

How would you describe FB6 at FH Aachen?
A close-knit, familiar community with very good contacts in the business world.

What should you definitely bring with you for this degree programme?
The most important thing is enthusiasm and the ability to be enthusiastic about aviation and/or aerospace.

Automotive engineering

Bachelor's degree programmes

Mirko Schulte-Gosewinkel, 23 years old, 7th semester Vehicle and Drive Technology specialising in Drive Technology

To be honest, after my Abitur (university entrance qualification) I was a bit overwhelmed with the decision of what to do next. However, it was very important to me to have a certain amount of practical work in my degree programme after the endlessly long time at school. I chose the Automotive and Drive Technology degree programme because I expected to work in a highly respected, future-proof industry.

It was only during the course of my studies that I realised that I was very interested in subjects such as mathematics, physics and technology. In order to understand as much of the physical interrelationships as possible, I opted for the areas of specialisation in drive technology. There I learnt how electrical machines, gearboxes, batteries, combustion engines, etc. work.

In my opinion, the factors that speak most in favour of this degree programme are: The proximity to the professors and the (so-called) practical trainings. The lecturers are highly qualified, have a lot of experience from industry and are happy to answer any questions. Practical trainings are projects within the framework of courses in which the lecture content is put into practice in the real world. I particularly appreciate the variety of practical trainings; from programming, to disassembling gears or engines, to project work, everything is included.

I have really enjoyed my time at FH Aachen so far and would choose the same degree programme again every time.

Youssef Amjahad, 23 years old, 7th semester Vehicle and Drive Technology

Even as a child, I was fascinated by German cars, their high quality and energy efficiency. It was always my dream to be part of this development. On the recommendation of friends who were studying aerospace engineering at FH Aachen, I decided to study automotive and drive engineering. I would recommend the programme to anyone who not only wants to learn theory, but also gain real insights into the future of the automotive industry. The flexible curriculum as well as the supportive and familiar atmosphere at FH Aachen makes it possible to work as a student trainee on the side. I am particularly impressed by the breadth of my specialisation - drive technology. Here we not only deal with traditional combustion engines, but also with alternative, environmentally friendly drive systems such as electric motors, battery development, transmission technology and alternative drives such as fuel cells and hydrogen vehicles.

One highlight was my time as a maths tutor, where I helped first and second semester students with exercises and exam preparation. This direct collaboration with the professors was an outstanding experience for me and strengthened my connection to the UAS.

In conclusion, I can say that I will definitely do a Master's degree in International Automotive Engineering in the same faculties after my Bachelor's degree. You don't feel left alone at the FH, there are always contacts, lecturers and tutors. FH Aachen not only offers knowledge, but also a community that accompanies you on your path to success.

Be inspired by my journey and discover the exciting world of vehicle and drive technology at FH Aachen!

Damian Jansen, 25 years old, Bachelor's degree in vehicle and drive technology specialising in bodywork and interiors

After my A-levels, I completed a voluntary social year in building services. I was a caretaker for a year so that I could find my way around the large selection of degree programmes at the same time. I deliberately chose FH Aachen because it was important to me to combine theory with practice. I not only wanted to understand complex mathematical relationships, but also their use in the real world.

Before studying, I wanted to become an "inventor". In the first few semesters, I had to struggle to understand the complex relationships in higher mathematics. In the later semesters, I really enjoyed using it as a tool to design stable and functional components and inventions. In subjects such as vehicle integration, vehicle structure design and interior design, my layman's knowledge was supplemented with in-depth knowledge of automotive development. These subjects are particularly valuable thanks to the professors who have decades of experience in the automotive industry. The theoretical lectures are often enriched with insights and anecdotes from the lecturers' day-to-day work.

A particular advantage of studying at FH Aachen is the opportunity to complete your final thesis in industry and receive full support from the professors at the university.

One of the highlights of my Bachelor's degree was the gliding course in the second semester. Under favourable conditions, I was able to perform my first manoeuvres in a glider for a week and make my first assisted landing - an exhilarating feeling!

I passed my Bachelor's degree a month ago and am now studying the subsequent Master's degree programme "International Automotive Engineering" at FH Aachen. I appreciate the lecturers, know the students and can also take part in an exchange programme that enables me to study for a year in Melbourne, Australia, at RMIT University.

If you are looking for practical relevance, approachable professors and support when starting your career, FH Aachen is the right place for you!

Fabiano Alfano, 22 years old, 7th semester Automotive and Drive Technology, specialising in bodywork and interiors

My decision to study a degree programme in vehicle and drive technology with a focus on bodywork and interior was influenced by my enthusiasm for the technical aspects of vehicles. I was fascinated by the complexity and interaction of mechanical systems in cars from an early age. The opportunity to focus on the specific technical interrelationships of bodywork and interior was crucial for me.

What I would highly recommend about this degree programme is the breadth of the course content. From the technical basics to specialised modules dealing with, for example, body technology, vehicle dynamics and manufacturing techniques, the degree programme offers a comprehensive understanding of vehicle technology.

I personally benefited in particular from the practice-orientated project "Aixtreme Racing", the FH Aachen Formula Student Team. The opportunity to work on real challenges in the automotive industry and develop solutions to technical problems was extremely instructive. The close co-operation with fellow students gave me valuable insights into the application of my knowledge in the real world.

The practical nature of the degree programme, particularly through various practical trainings, helped me to develop a deeper understanding of the industry's requirements. Developing vehicle concepts as part of the practical trainings gave me further insight into the practical application of the knowledge I had learnt.

Overall, my degree programme not only provided me with further technical training, but also deepened my enthusiasm for how vehicles work and are designed. The practice-orientated training prepared me perfectly for a promising career in the automotive industry.

Marius Langohr, 27 Jahre alt, Bachelorabschluss in Fahrzeug- und Antriebstechnik Vertiefung Antriebstechnik

Da ich aus dem Kreis Aachen komme, stand ich nach dem Abitur vor der Entscheidung, ein Ingenieursstudium an der RWTH oder FH Aachen zu absolvieren. Letztlich haben mich der hohe Praxisanteil, die Vertiefungsmöglichkeiten sowie der sehr gute Ruf der FH Aachen überzeugt, weshalb ich mich für den Studiengang Fahrzeug- und Antriebstechnik am Fachbereich 6 eingeschrieben habe.

Während der ersten drei Semester gibt es ein breit-gefächertes Angebot grundlegender Ingenieursdisziplinen. Hier stehen selbstverständlich die notwendigen theoretischen Grundlagen von Mathematik, Mechanik, Elektrotechnik, Konstruktion und Thermodynamik im Vordergrund. Die regelmäßigen Pflichtpraktika in sehr vielen Modulen ermöglichen einen kontinuierlichen Lernfortschritt und die Vertiefung der theoretischen Inhalte.

Die Module der Semester 4-6 behandeln dann schrittweise spezifischere Themen des Gesamtfahrzeuges und bieten daher auch deutlich mehr Praxisnähe. Im fünften Semester entschied ich mich für die Vertiefung „Antriebstechnik“. Die Module dieser Vertiefungsrichtung behandeln dabei neben konventionellen und alternativen Antriebsarchitekturen ebenfalls die Grundlagen der jeweiligen Antriebskomponenten wie beispielsweise Verbrennungsmotoren, Brennstoffzellen, elektrische Maschinen und Getriebe.

Das Vertiefungsstudium beinhaltet dabei zusätzlich ein vielfältiges Angebot von Wahlmodulen. Hierbei möchte ich insbesondere das Modul „MATLAB/Simulink in der Fahrzeugentwicklung“ hervorheben. Die Prüfungsleistung besteht in diesem Modul darin, mittels der Entwicklungssoftware „MATLAB/Simulink“ eine praxisbezogene Aufgaben­stellung zu lösen. Die Vorgehensweise wird dabei sinnvoll dokumentiert und der Lösungsansatz sowie die Ergebnisse anschließend präsentiert. „MATLAB/Simulink“ ist in der Automobilindustrie ein sehr verbreitetes und wichtiges Werkzeug, weshalb sich die Vermittlung der Grundlagen und Funktionen für mich definitiv gelohnt hat.

Nach der Bachelorarbeit habe ich mich für den konsekutiven Masterstudiengang „International Automotive Engineering“ entschieden und schreibe aktuell meine Masterarbeit im Bereich Systementwicklung.

Abschließend kann ich beide Studiengänge aufgrund ihrer inhaltlichen und organisatorischen Struktur empfehlen. Durch die Fertigstellung des neuen „KMAC“ Gebäudes gibt es nun auch endlich ein erweitertes Platzangebot, welches insbesondere von Studierenden genutzt werden kann.

Interview with two former students

Julia Möller, 29 years old and Elsa Eberhard, 28 years old, Bachelor's degree in vehicle and drive technology

"We became aware of the FH Aachen primarily due to its good reputation and our interest in technology on the degree programme in vehicle and drive technology. The high practical component was a decisive factor. And we can confirm that the UAS rightly receives such good assessments. Especially in the specialisation phase in the fifth and sixth semesters, we had pleasantly small courses. For the practical trainings of each course, we were even divided into small groups again, which allowed us to be very well supervised. In the first four semesters, we mainly had basic engineering subjects. We had these courses together with students from other subject areas, e.g. aerospace engineering. This shows that the Automotive and Drive Technology degree programme is broadly based. With a Bachelor of Engineering, you can not only work in the areas of specialisation "Body and Interior" and "Drive Technology", but also in numerous other areas with the technical understanding you have learned.

Elsa: My studies at the UAS gave me a very good basis for specialising in urban mobility and urban planning in my Master's degree. With this specialisation, I could work for a local authority and plan the traffic flow there, among other things.

Julia: I chose the specialisation 'Bodywork and Interior'. This specialisation deals with important future topics and issues, for example: How must the interior of self-driving cars be designed to maximise protection for the occupants? Because with autonomous driving, the seating position is no longer precisely defined. I kept this focus in my Master's degree programme in International Automotive Engineering.

Fellow students who choose "Drive Technology" as an area of specialisation learn, among other things, how combustion engines and electric motors work and how to develop a battery or fuel cell.

A-level students who are interested in vehicle and drive technology should enjoy maths and have a technical understanding. We also advise: Take advantage of all offers in advance! Go to the open day, take part in Girls' or Boys' Day and attend the preliminary courses before the start of term! There is also the opportunity to talk to students. Just ask the student body of the faculty (Fachschaft).

In addition to your studies, you can develop and build Formula Student racing cars (Aixtreme Racing) or solar-powered electric vehicles (Team Sonnenwagen) together with other students in Aachen. "

Luca Komatowski, 29 Jahre alt, 9. Semester Fahrzeug- und Antriebstechnik Vertiefung Karosserie und Interieur

Nach meiner Lehre zum Kfz-Mechatroniker hatte ich das Bedürfnis, ergänzend zu meiner praktischen Ausbildung, einen tieferen Einblick in die Entwicklung und Produktion von Fahrzeugen zu erhalten. Deshalb entschied ich mich für das Studium der Fahrzeugtechnik. Obwohl ich auch überlegte Mechatronik oder Maschinenbau zu studieren, kann ich guten Gewissens sagen, dass die Spezialisierung auf Fahrzeuge, und im Studienverlauf auf Karosserie und Interieur, die absolut richtige Entscheidung war. Denn durch meine Begeisterung für das Automobil hatte ich an den fahrzeugtechnischen Themen in den Modulen noch mehr Spaß.

Die Vertiefungsfächer gaben mir ein besseres Verständnis für den Karosserieaufbau und die Differenzierung der unterschiedlichen Aufbauarten. Ebenfalls wurden ergonomische Aspekte des Fahrzeuginterieurs betrachtet und ein Gesamtüberblick über die Integration der einzelnen Fahrzeugsysteme vermittelt.

Für die FH Aachen entschied ich mich unter anderem aufgrund des hohen Praxisbezugs in Form von Praktika. Diese haben mir geholfen, die theoretischen Inhalte besser zu verstehen und mein technisches Wissen zu erweitern. Zudem schätze ich an der FH Aachen sehr den angenehmen Umgang zwischen Lehrenden und Studierenden. Die Professor:innen sind immer sehr hilfsbereit und nehmen sich gerne die Zeit, um Themen nochmals unter vier Augen zu erläutern. Das Niveau der Lehrinhalte und das vermittelte Wissen empfinde ich als sehr hoch und umfangreich, ohne eine Betrachtung im Detail zu vernachlässigen.

Highlights meines Studiums waren beispielsweise die interessanten Exkursionen zu diversen Zulieferern, Instituten wie das Gießerei Institut, Automobilherstellern wie Ford und dem Sitzhersteller Adient. Außerdem ist Aachen eine tolle Studentenstadt, die viel Abwechslung zum Studium bietet. Nicht zuletzt durch die Nähe zu Belgien und den Niederlanden.

Tim Braune, 26 Jahre alt, 6. Semester Fahrzeug- und Antriebstechnik Vertiefung Karosserie und Interieur

Nach meiner Ausbildung als KFZ-Mechatroniker hatte ich den Wunsch mein Wissen in einem praktischen Studium zu vertiefen und noch mehr über die Entwicklung von Fahrzeugen zu lernen.

Vor dem Studium befürchtete ich, dass meine mathematischen Kenntnisse nicht ausreichen, da ich im Abitur keinen Mathe - und Physik- LK gewählt hatte und nach der Ausbildung viele Inhalte aus der Schulzeit nicht mehr so präsent waren.

Daher begann ich mit der Erwartung, dass das Grundstudium sehr lernintensiv, theoretisch und mathelastig wird. Trotzdem freute ich mich auf neue Lerninhalte und Beispiele aus der Fahrzeugindustrie.

Das Grundstudium stellte sich tatsächlich als anspruchsvoll und zeitintensiv heraus und entspricht insofern meinen Erwartungen. Ein sehr guter Mathe Professor schaffte es jedoch, Begeisterung für Mathe zu vermitteln, weshalb meine Angst unbegründet war. Durchhalten lohnt sich, da die Vertiefungsfächer von Karosserie und Interieur viel Spaß machen und sehr praxisbezogen sind.

Die Vorlesungen, in kleinen Lerngruppen von 20 Kommilitonen, empfinde ich als angenehm. Das hatte ich auch so erwartet. Wir absolvieren spannende Praktika, die uns auf den Berufsalltag als Ingenieur vorbereiten. Die Gestaltung eines Fahrzeuginnenraums, Messungen im Windkanal an einem Porsche 911 und Zeichnen von Karosserieschnitten gehören bis jetzt zu meinen Highlights.

Ich hätte nicht damit gerechnet, an so vielen interessanten Exkursionen z.B. zum „Mercedes Sprinter“ Werk, dem Sitzhersteller „Adient“ und dem Institut für Kraftfahrzeugtechnik teilzunehmen.

Außerdem sind die Vorlesungen von Gastdozenten z.B. von „Ford“ und „BMW“ eine gute Möglichkeit Einblicke in die Industrie zu erhalten und Kontakte zu knüpfen.

Zudem überrascht mich der persönliche Kontakt zu gut vernetzten und motivierten Professor:innen, die für jede Frage offen sind und uns unterstützen.

Bis jetzt bereitet mir mein Studium viel Spaß und meine Erwartungen wurden bislang übertroffen. Ich würde mich jederzeit wieder dafür entscheiden.
