Aeronautics and Astronautics (M.Sc.) at TU Berlin

About

The masters program in Aeronautics and Astronautics provides you with an all-round knowledge of all areas relating to the construction and operation of aircraft and astronautic systems, including aerodynamics, drive engineering and satellite technology, and flight control as well as their integral systems. During the program you examine the design, development, and production of aircraft and spacecraft on the basis of advanced engineering methods. You also address application-related issues with continuous reference to professional practice. A wide range of teaching and research equipment is available such as a modern ultralight aircraft and various flight simulators and wind tunnels.

As a graduate of the masters program in Aeronautics and Astronautics you have an advanced knowledge of the field of aerospace as well as an understanding of the general issues involved. You also have the capacity to scientifically and methodologically develop the knowledge you have acquired. The areas of the curriculum focusing on economics and social sciences enable you to assume social responsibility by providing you with the capacity to identify macroeconomic and social contexts for issues which do not relate purely to engineering as well as to gain an awareness of sustainable development. Drawing upon knowledge from other fields, you are able to apply specialized problem-solving skills, leading to new findings and developments. You are also familiar with and able to apply the methods of scientific problem management, thus enabling you to effectively analyze and work on new approaches to problems, including in fields outside aeronautics.

Requirements

Entry Requirements

As for every other masters degree program at TU Berlin, applicants to the masters program in Aeronautics and Astronautics must possess a first university degree qualifying them for professional work. You can find detailed information in the application and admission regulations/study and examination regulations. The most current version of these regulations applies to applicants.

The Aeronautics and Astronautics masters program is taught in German. If you are applying with a foreign school-leaving certificate, you must provide proof of German skills at a specific level. This is a prerequisite for admission.

The international nature of aeronautics and astronautics, with its focus on economic, legal, and political issues, means that a good knowledge of English as well as communication and team skills are of fundamental importance. However, these skills are not a condition for admission to studies.
