Develop product strategies.
Develop innovative products.
Lead interdisciplinary development projects.

Product development is one of the core processes of a company. The success of a company is very closely linked to the success of its products on the market. When people from different disciplines work together, successful products for today’s markets can be created – product development tasks therefore require a strong interdisciplinary understanding. The degree programme takes advantage of the outstanding interdisciplinary opportunities offered by Pforzheim University of Applied Sciences and covers important content in engineering, design, business administration and law. An interdisciplinary project is therefore an integral part of the degree course: you will develop innovative concepts in a team with students from other faculties.

The thesis can optionally be completed abroad.
