Overview Engineering and Management in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology (EIW)
Graduates with a degree in Engineering and Management in the field of electrical engineering and information technology from Constance are in great demand!
They speak the language of engineers and economists and, with their integrative, interdisciplinary education, are therefore predestined for a management or specialist career at the interface of technology and business. With a focus on electrical engineering and information technology, graduates in engineering and management specialise in an absolutely high-tech industry that has become an integral part of our private and professional everyday life. The student will acquire a sound knowledge of electrical engineering, information technology, natural sciences, economics and law and apply this to current issues in areas such as
- autonomic systems
- e-mobility
- smart grids
- Industry 4.0
- renewable energies.
Thanks to a state-of-the-art study organization, they develop competencies in the integration core area that is important for engineering and management graduates at an early stage. Academic content from the integration core area is intended to supplement and ensure that engineering and management content is connected and interrelated. The choice of five majors allows them to set their course with a view to starting their careers.
Overview of the EIW Program
The program lasts seven semesters. To help you get off to a good start, we offer a preparatory maths course and a range of support courses tailored to your individual needs.

- Main Studies
In semesters three to six, you will further develop your expertise in programming and automotive software engineering. You will develop skills in a variety of areas relating to networked information systems and control engineering. You will also learn how to select and control appropriate actuators and electric drives. Alongside the technical content, you will explore the ethical aspects of your work, evaluating concepts in terms of sustainability. You will learn to organise and carry out projects efficiently.
The fourth semester is a practical study semester. You will become familiar with the structures and processes of an industrial company. Through on-the-job training, you will expand your knowledge and gain an understanding of your future professional field. You will also have the opportunity to network with employers.
During the fifth and sixth semesters, you will further develop your skills, particularly in the areas of connected vehicles and autonomous mobility. Through compulsory electives, you can either broaden your range of competencies or specialise in a specific area. You will also work on a challenging, practical team project. You will conclude your studies by writing a bachelor's thesis at the university or in a company in the seventh semester.
Studying in English at the HTWG
The degree program EIW requires German language skills since most courses are taught in German. However, at least one course per semester is taught in English. In addition, it is possible to complete both a bachelor thesis and projects in English. Therefore, there are possibilities and options for exchange students to participate, see our international office for further information.
