Global Production Engineering

Global Production Engineering is a full-time four-semester master's program offered at the Technische Universität Berlin, Germany. The curriculum is designed for outstanding international graduate students seeking to improve their competence portfolio in the fields of production, management, engineering, and intercultural communication. The strong international orientation of the program can be seen in the fact that more than 90% of our students come from countries outside Europe. Among our student body and alumni, we count people from over 50 different countries of origin. The GPE master program courses are exclusively held in English language. GPE is a master's program especially aimed at students with a bachelor's degree or equivalent and at least one year of professional experience.

Research-oriented Study

This research-oriented education with its semi-practical application in labs, the mandatory internship, and the working on their master thesis allows students to get an early start on assuming tasks bearing responsibility and prepare them for a successful future career in the industry.

GPE Community

In addition, the last twenty years have seen the formation of a global network of alumni, where alumni exchange information and provide mutual support for each other. GPE graduates today are collaborating on challenges such as the construction of new production sites, global sourcing, and sales of investment goods, or in projects setting up cacao factories in Sierra Leone and manufacturing equipment for lithium-ion batteries. They are employed in the manufacturing industry e.g. for automotive, electric, and electronics, especially solar, machines and factory buildings, food, and also in non-profit organizations, governmental institutions and research and development.
