The first university bachelor's degree course in robotics in Germany - forward-looking and interdisciplinary! At a time when technological innovations are advancing at a rapid pace and global knowledge is constantly growing, the ability to familiarize oneself flexibly and quickly with different subject areas is of crucial importance.
Our Bachelor's degree program in Robotics and Autonomous Systems prepares students to master complex electrotechnical, mechanical and algorithmic issues. They acquire a sound knowledge of physics, mathematics, computer science and electrical engineering - supplemented by the latest approaches in robotics, autonomous systems and artificial intelligence (AI).
The focus is on the practical analysis and solution of complex problems, whereby technical innovations are always considered in the context of social and ecological challenges. Teamwork, agile project organization and the ability to communicate complex technical content in an understandable way - also on an international level - equip our graduates optimally for the global job market.

Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.)Hints for application
Applicants from the EU can apply directly via the application portal of the University of Lübeck. Applicants from outside the EU please use the Uni Assist Portal.
Graduates of this degree course have a wide range of career opportunities: you can either start directly as an engineer - or you can then opt for the English-language Master's degree in Robotics and Autonomous Systems. If you are unsure about English - language courses are of course also available at the University of Lübeck!
After your Bachelor's degree, you will have a broad knowledge of engineering and interdisciplinary skills. In particular, you will acquire
- Sound basic knowledge: you will use methods from physics, mathematics, computer science and electrical engineering specifically in robotics.
- Specialized technical knowledge: You will understand the control of dynamic systems, computer science and artificial intelligence - essential for applications such as service robotics, care robotics and autonomous systems.
- Problem-solving skills: You recognize complex problems, analyze them and find solutions with the help of current technical literature.
- Holistic work: You will master analysis, synthesis and development tasks by considering scientific, technical as well as social and ecological aspects.
- Sustainability awareness: You recognize the impact of your work on the environment and society and act accordingly.
Strong communication skills: You discuss your ideas and results both with specialist colleagues and with a wider audience - also in English.
You will also learn to organize projects efficiently, both independently and as part of an international team, to structure your day-to-day work and to continuously acquire new knowledge. Modern presentation techniques and critical research round off your profile.
With these skills, you will be optimally prepared to take off in a wide range of professional fields.

For the Bachelor's degree course in Robotics and Autonomous Systems, you need a general higher education entrance qualification (Abitur) or an equivalent qualification. You should also have a good knowledge of mathematics and physics. Further specific requirements can be found in the program regulations.
The Bachelor's degree program teaches the basics of computer science, electrical engineering and mechanics. In addition, specific knowledge in robotics, control systems and autonomous systems is taught. A detailed overview of the modules can be found in the course module handbook.
Yes, the Bachelor's degree course includes an internship semester in which students can gain practical experience in projects at the university.
Graduates can work in various fields such as the automotive industry, medical technology, industrial automation or research institutions. Possible professional fields include the development and programming of robot systems, system integration and technical project management.
Two regulations apply to the Bachelor's degree program "Robotics and Autonomous Systems":
- The examination procedure regulations for all degree programs: These regulations contain guidelines that apply to all technical and scientific degree programs at the University of Lübeck.
- The course-specific course regulations: These summarize all regulations that apply specifically to the course. Among other things, the individual courses of the entire semester are listed here and a study plan is presented.
All current versions of the regulations can be found here. Each student is subject to the most recent version at the start of their studies.
