Greetings from the Dean

Welcome to WING - the interdisciplinary faculty!

‘Leadership and Innovative Technologies for a Sustainable Future’ - with this call for our MBA & Engineering programme, the interdisciplinary faculty WING is opening an exciting chapter. And since the 2024/25 academic year, we have been offering a brand new English-language engineering degree programme ‘International Management & Digital Engineering’. The Munich School of Engineering & Management started its dynamic success story back in 1947 and has been offering this degree programme here ever since - initially under the umbrella of the Oskar-von-Miller Polytechnic - making it one of the birthplaces of “Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen”. With the founding of the Hochschule München University of Applied Sciences in 1971 and the move to the Lothstraße campus, WING finally stood on its own two feet as a faculty.

Today, with over 1,600 students and 46 professors, our faculty is not only one of the largest talent hotbeds for engineering managers, but also one of the most renowned - a great success for all faculty members. This is confirmed by the European EUR-ACE accreditations as well as the important university rankings by CHE/DieZeit and WirtschaftsWoche, in which the WING faculty consistently achieves excellent results.

Every year, over 500 young people enroll on a degree programme with us. Over 11,000 alumni have now successfully completed their studies at the faculty. All graduates carry the professional title ‘Wirtschaftsingenieur’ - a seal of quality for high professional qualification. They combine interdisciplinary technological expertise with management qualifications and are therefore predestined to work as top performers and managers in companies in various industries.

We design application-oriented Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes as well as an MBA & Engineering degree programme. We offer additional interdisciplinary study programmes together with the Strascheg Center for Entrepreneurship, such as the Master's degree programme in Entrepreneurship & Digital Transformation. This gives students the opportunity to practise entrepreneurial behaviour, acquire essential key skills and mature into a person of integrity.

The faculty promotes applied research and development in interdisciplinary fields of innovation together with partner organisations. The strong link to business practice and the lively transfer of technology to industry guarantee a future-oriented degree programme. In view of the globalised labour markets, we promote international cooperation and maintain numerous collaborations with universities abroad. Our graduates stand for intercultural understanding and cosmopolitanism - the order of the day.

I would like to encourage you to continue to support the WING faculty on its path to becoming an interdisciplinary ‘HM School of Engineering & Management’.

Yours

Prof Dr Hermann Englberger
