Students will discover new fields of research and will master the complexities of this field of study. They will be able to link their theoretical knowledge acquired during the programme with their future professional life.

The course extends and intensifies knowledge already gained and provides special knowledge, for example in manufacturing and creating technical textiles. Furthermore, basic subjects in the natural sciences, engineering and business administration will be introduced. The modules Mathematics for Engineers, Computer Applications in Mechanical Engineering, Technical Mechanics, Business Administration, etc. expand the students' knowledge of the engineering and business aspects of textile and clothing technology.

The modules Textile Materials and Test Techniques, Processes and Machinery of Textile Technology, Processes and Machinery of Clothing Technology, etc. expand the subject-specific knowledge.

The master's thesis, prepared during the last semester, offers students the chance to apply scientific methods to current research issues.
