M.Sc. Power Engineering

The design of sustainable energy systems is one of the central challenges of our time. The Master’s program in Power Engineering qualifies you for an active role in the global energy transition.

The transformation of the energy sector is one of the greatest technological challenges of the 21st century. The Master’s program in Power Engineering at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) provides you with the technical and societal tools to actively shape this task. In a holistic, English-taught, and internationally oriented study program, you will learn how future energy systems can be developed and operated in an ecologically sound, affordable, and sustainable manner.

Global warming, limited fossil resources, and geopolitical dependencies make the transition to renewable energy indispensable. This requires engineers with sound expertise in electrical, thermodynamic, and mechanical systems—and with an understanding of economic, ecological, and political contexts across cultural and territorial boundaries.

With its guiding principle of Human-Centred Engineering, TUM stands for technology development in the service of people and society. The Master’s program in Power Engineering follows this claim and trains specialists who are not only technically excellent but also capable of acting in an interdisciplinary and intercultural way—in international project teams and a global work environment.
