Application Supplement Form: Course Contents in previous study programmes

• Mechatronic Systems in Vehicle Engineering

Please make sure that you have the necessary course descriptions from your home university available. The

declarations you make are subject to formal and scientific assessment by the selection committee as per §3 of the

Regulations of Examination (Prüfungsordnung ) of our master programme. Please be as accurate as possible when

matching course contents, and do not provide course contents that cannot be verified. The selection committee

reserves the right to deny acceptance of previous coursework if it is deemed unfit for our master programme.

If one or more subjects were not part of your previous studies, the selection committee can impose individual

enrolment conditions that would still allow you to study Automotive Engineering at RWTH Aachen University. This

predominantly applies to the four Automotive Engineering subjects, but to some extent also to the basic modules listed

first. In most cases, a maximum of five additional subjects can be imposed, which may extend your master programme

duration by up to one semester.

Instructions

Each form addresses one subject and consists of three parts. Make sure you have entered your name and ID above.

The first part is the list of Courses at your Home University and their corresponding coursework amounts. You may

list up to six modules from your undergraduate studies that contain topics that we seek in this subject. If you have no

previous courses to list in this field, leave this sheet empty.

• Control Engineering

• Fluid Mechanics

• Mathematics

• Automotive Engineering I (Vehicle Longitudinal Dynamics)

• Automotive Engineering II (Vehicle Vertical and Lateral Dynamics)

• Internal Combustion Engines Fundamentals

• Engineering Materials

IMPORTANT: Please read these instructions carefully before filling in the forms!
