Master's in Sustainable Building and Energy Systems
After three semesters of study, the Master's program in Sustainable Building and Energy Systems leads to the degree Master of Engineering (M.Eng.). The language of instruction is German.
Program objectives
The Master's program in Sustainable Building and Energy Systems builds consecutively on the 7-semester Bachelor's in Sustainable Building and Energy Systems and leads to a second professional qualification in Building Services Energy Engineering. This degree also entitles the holder to pursue doctoral studies.
Graduates of relevant fields of study with a 6-semester Bachelor's degree (180 credits) have the opportunity to acquire the remaining 30 credits in our Bachelor's degree program in the winter semester prior to the Master's program.

Bridge semester
Applicants from a 6-semester Bachelor's degree (180 CP) can enrol in a so-called 'bridge semester' in the semester prior to their Master's program so that they can earn the remaining 30 credit points. The department head determines which modules need to be taken in the bridge semester. The bridge semester is considered a preparatory semester for the Master's degree and therefore an integral part of the Master's degree.
