Do your master's in future technologies
The Mobile Systems (MOS) degree programme enables you to understand and analyse the challenges of digital mobility and develop creative solutions. During your studies, we design and implement applications for the future – be it in the exciting field of automotive, e-mobility or ambient assisted living. Are you ready to help shape the future of mobility?
Programme content and structure
Our age is characterised by multi-mobility. Whether networked transportation, mobile communication or the intelligent control of our homes – we are networked and on the move everywhere at the same time.
During the three-semester course, you'll take courses from the Digital Mobility and Product Management specialisations as well as advanced modules and elective modules.
You'll also work in a team on a research project on a current topic.

MOS specifics
Digital Mobility focus
On the one hand, digital mobility encompasses the mobility of the user in connection with mobile devices and applications, i.e. movement in virtual space. On the other hand, it is about the mobility of information, i.e. the transportation of digital information across time and space, which forms an important basis for the Internet of Things. Current software technologies such as containerisation play an important role here.
Product Management
Product management of mobile systems requires a systemic, holistic and sustainable approach. We provide in-depth knowledge for identifying, evaluating and designing IT solutions for mobile systems. You'll learn to coordinate projects in the field of digital mobility in the areas of smart living, smart home and mobile computing. And you'll develop solutions that promote personal freedom and progress. When evaluating mobile processes, modern data analysis and process mining techniques make a decisive contribution to their optimisation.
