Bachelor's Programme in Technology and Engineering Science
The Bachelor's Programme in Technology and Engineering Science enables you to become an expert in multidisciplinary fields of engineering. It covers interdisciplinary topics from essential fields of engineering, enhanced by language studies, entrepreneurship training and transferable skills.
The programme gives you the competence to solve multidisciplinary engineering problems, manage projects, work in multicultural teams or become an entrepreneur. The programme provides extensive hands-on experience and applies theories and techniques from a broad range of engineering fields to practice through interdisciplinary projects.
In this bachelor's programme you will focus on essential and applicable engineering disciplines, integrating studies of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, energy technology and environmental technology. As a student, you can freely choose a specialisation during your second academic year.
After completing the bachelor's degree, you will be entitled to continue your studies in LUT master's programmes in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, energy technology or environmental technology. To some of the master's programmes, however, you will need to apply separately.
The programme is accredited by international EUR-ACE® and ASIIN standards for high quality degree programmes in engineering.
What will you learn in the programme?
In this Bachelor's programme you will gain a solid foundation in a range of techniques to solve complex engineering problems, taking into account the growing general awareness of environmental technologies.
You will graduate within three academic years with a unique and adaptable multidisciplinary skill set that will meet the current demands of industry, education and technology.
In this programme, you will learn advanced mathematics skills, diverse engineering design skills, goal-oriented problem-solving, productive project work, transferable skills in entrepreneurship and engineering, and teamwork and language skills relevant to international industry.
Degree structure and studies
The Bachelor's Programme in Technology and Engineering Science is a three-year programme. By completing the programme you will receive the degree of Bachelor's of Science in Technology, B.Sc. (Tech.), which is 180 ECTS credits.
The programme includes general studies and intermediate specialisation studies. Language and communication studies are also included in the programme. Read more in this academic year’s curriculum.
After completing this bachelor's programme, you will have a study right to continue your studies in some master's programmes at LUT in the fields of energy technology, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering or environmental engineering. Note, that to some of the master's programmes you have to apply separately.
Quality of education
The high quality of education is one of the most important principles on which we will not compromise. International programme accreditations ensure the continuous development of our education and the international recognition of the degrees of our graduates. LUT University was one of the world’s top 300 universities in the autumn 2023 THE World University Rankings, which is one of the most highly regarded university ranking systems.
The systematic quality assurance procedures that we have developed over a long period guarantee the high quality of our degree programmes and the strong competence of our graduates in the future labour market. The underpinning elements of our education quality are the contents of our degree programmes, which are based on innovations of scientific research and the needs of the working world, and active student–teacher interaction. We evaluate the quality of our education through several follow-up procedures and feedback channels (e.g., course feedback, graduate feedback, alumni feedback, thesis commissioners’ feedback).
Career prospects
As a graduate of the Bachelor's Programme in Technology and Engineering Science, you will be well equipped for the challenging and rewarding career paths in a diverse range of industries and organisations.
Due to transferable skills you will accumulate, you will be ready to solve multidisciplinary engineering problems, manage projects, work in multicultural teams or become an entrepreneur.
The integration of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, energy technology and environmental technology together with IoT skills provides you an excellent foundation to compete for the most wanted jobs in industry related to modern sustainable hybrid technology solutions. You will be working for a better future with the best companies.
