Fields of study offered
Working together with different sites of Duale Hochschule Baden Württemberg Audi is offering the following programs:
Electrical engineering – vehicle electronics, e-mobility and alternative drive systems / embedded IT
Bachelor of Engineering (m/f/x)
To compete on an international scale, more powerful products must be developed and improved at a faster pace and with a higher quality — without neglecting our responsibility to people and the environment. Technical progress in current developments, such as autonomous driving and connected cars, depends heavily on electronics and information technology.

Mechatronics
Bachelor of Engineering (m/f/x)
Mechatronics is the ideal connection between the traditional fields of study of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and information technology. In light of the fact that technical progress is characterized by the ever-increasing integration and miniaturization of mechanical and electrical elements coupled with programmable “intelligence,” the field of mechatronics has now taken on a role of outstanding importance.

Mechatronics – electric mobility
Bachelor of Engineering (m/f/x)
Climate change and the related obligations of vehicle manufacturers to reduce CO2 emissions have put the electrification of drive trains and electric mobility in the spotlight. Electric mobility refers to both vehicles with only an electric motor and hybrid versions. The interdisciplinary course of study includes mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and computer science.

Business informatics
Bachelor of Science (m/f/x)
The development dynamics of information technology influence companies in all sectors, including car manufacturers. It’s not uncommon for a process to be computer-aided, something that one might not expect at first glance. Business informatics deals with all the essential aspects of communication and information systems in companies. It is also concerned with the analysis of data and its use in a business context to develop new, or improve existing, business models.
The role of Business Informatics graduates is to analyse and optimise operational processes. For a holistic analysis, processes need to be considered from both an information technology and a business perspective. This course of study is offered with different specialisations.
