What do you do with a degree in medical technology?

Medical technology is one of the most innovative sectors in Germany. But that's not all: in a global comparison, Germany is the third largest producer of medical technology goods - after the USA and Japan. Medical technology engineers are in demand wherever engineering and medicine meet. Thanks to your wide-ranging knowledge of engineering science, you will be able to familiarise yourself quickly and competently with various specialist areas.

Take on new challenges that require all your engineering skills and flexibility. With an interdisciplinary and practice-oriented degree programme, we prepare you optimally for a career in the fields of research and development of medical devices, product development, biomedical applications, production and application technology as well as quality assurance, customer consulting and service.

The Bachelor's degree programme can be continued with the Master's degree programme in Medical Technology. This is a research master's programme in which you carry out a research project in one of the faculty's laboratories. This is an ideal preparation for a doctorate, which is also possible at FH Aachen. Another option is the international Master's degree programme in Nuclear Applications (EMiNA). Of course, you can also transfer to another university in Germany or abroad after the Bachelor's degree programme.
