What it is

This double degree with Hebei University of Technology covers engineering physics, mathematics, mechanics, 3D engineering, materials, energy systems, measurement and control, robotics, mechatronics and AI-driven machinery, with Chinese language study throughout. Teaching combines lectures, company visits, projects and extensive laboratory work, including the Jamie Hyneman prototyping lab, and ends with a bachelor's thesis. A minor can be energy economics, sustainability science or Chinese business and culture, and you receive degrees from both universities. Graduates work as design engineers, production and quality managers and product development engineers in automotive, energy, food, healthcare and construction.
