Hareesh, Master student ACES“I chose FAU because of its strong reputation in engineering, excellent research opportunities, and close connections with industry such as Siemens, Audi, BMW, and many innovative research institutes. The Electromobility-ACES Master’s programme appealed to me because it combines advanced engineering with emerging technologies such as AI, connectivity, e-powertrain and sustainable mobility, allowing me to broaden my mechanical engineering background. What I enjoy most is working on research with real-world applications and learning in an international environment.”
Nilufar, Master student ACES“I chose FAU and the ACES programme because of my deep interest in electromobility and automotive manufacturing processes. Germany, being one of the world’s leading automotive producers, was a natural choice for me, and FAU stands out with its strong reputation in this field. What excites me most is that electromobility is not just about building electric cars it is a truly prestigious direction for the future, combining advanced engineering with emerging technologies. Studying at FAU gives me the opportunity to connect my background in programming and systems engineering with real-world automotive innovation. I am confident that the skills and experience I gain here will open doors to a meaningful career at the intersection of software, engineering and sustainable mobility.”
The specialization fields “ACES” of the course (based on a McKinsey ACES 2019 survey) go far beyond pure electric mobility and reflect the skills of the TF and the fields of action for the future of mobility:
–AI & Autonomous driving
–Connectivity
–E-powertrain
–Sustainable mobility & Production Technology
The interdisciplinary course ACES bundles the extensive existing competencies of the technical faculty in these areas in teaching and represents an attractive offer for prospective students.
