Master’s Degree Program

Tution fees and costsThe program is subject to charge. The tui�on fee amounts to

5,000 Euros per Semester and 20,000 Euros for the en�re

dura�on of study. The rate covers all costs associated with

a�ending the program, yet it does not include housing costs or

living expenses. TU Berlin Campus El Gouna explicitly supports

its students in their efforts to obtain scholarships or other

sources of external funding. For updated informa�on on tui�on

fees and scholarship opportuni�es please refer to our website.

Application processThe advanced Master's degree program in energy Engineering

commences once a year in October with the intake of the new

batch of Master's students. The applica�on period for the

upcoming academic term opens at the beginning of the

respec�ve year. Please refer to our website for updated

informa�on on the applica�on process, deadlines and required

documents.

LocationsPerusing a Master's degree at TU Berlin Campus El Gouna offers

the excep�onal opportunity to study at two very dis�nct

loca�ons that differ tremendously not only in size but also in

their social, cultural, and ecological characteris�cs. This unique

set-up cons�tutes ideal condi�ons for students of Energy

Engineering to apply their newly gained knowledge to a wide

number of diverse condi�ons and environments.

The town of El Gouna, located 20 km north of Hurghada

Interna�onal Airport, is nestled charmingly between ar�ficial

lagoons on Egypt's stunning Red Sea coast. The recently opened

TU Berlin Campus El Gouna is sited in the center of this

reposeful environment, offering ideal study condi�ons through

its outstanding infrastructure and award-winning architecture.In sharp contrast to the tranquility of El Gouna, the German

capital of Berlin boosts with all the social and cultural ameni�es

of a modern metropolis. Located in the heart of this exi�ng city,

TU Berlin's mother campus, which accommodates some 32,000

students, displays an impressive and mo�va�ng backdrop for

academic advancement and research.

Program Curriculum

The master’s degree program in Energy Engineering

is divided into the following study areas:

The Master's degree program offers advanced educa�on for

students and young professionals holding a Bachelor's degree or

academic equivalent in engineering or natural sciences.The topics covered during the course of studies were tailor-

made on the basis of research projects and enduring

experiences of Technische Universität Berlin in the MENA

region. On comple�on of the program, successful students will

graduate with an official Master's of Science degree in Energy

Engineering from Technische Universität Berlin.

This program focuses on fundamental aspects of energy

engineering, including aspects of energy conversion and

renewable energies. While it integrates the latest scien�fic

developments and methods from faculty and researchers, it is

also highly applied in nature. The program fosters process-

orienta�on and interdisciplinary thinking among students. To

complement the classroom experience, interdisciplinary teams

of students from both this program and the Master's degree

programs in Urban Development and Water Engineering work

on projects that address typical theore�cal and applied

problems.

The Master's degree program in Energy Engineering begins each

winter semester (October –March). The majority of the courses

are held at the Campus El Gouna in Egypt. All Courses are taught

in English.

The main focal points of the curriculum are:- The basics of energy engineering, with par�cular a�en�on

to fundamental thermodynamic and economic aspects;

- Energy conversion techniques and integra�on of renewable

energies, with prac�cal experiments involving conven�onal

conversion systems (such as combus�on engine, gas

turbine and steam plant); s

- Refrigera�on and air condi�oning under special climate

condi�ons, especially solar cooling;

- Energy for buildings, especially primary energy

consump�on for hea�ng and cooling equipment, along

with calcula�on methods for planning of sophis�cated

homes and offices;

- Electrical energy engineering, especially power

engineering, with special considera�on of electrical drives

of wind power plants and the integra�on of renewable

energies;

- Energy economics and systems, focusing on complex

energy systems and the integra�on of renewable energy in

markets, ensuring a secure supply and commodity markets;

- So� skills, intercultural competence and research methods;

- Prac�cal interdisciplinary project and industry internship.

Admission to the program is limited to 30 students per year.

Students have the opportunity to choose among elec�ves, to

determine the subject of their project and their Master's thesis

individually. Students receive extensive mentoring and support

from professors and research associates of TU Berlin. Due to the

spacious campus they can work in their own project room.

Target group and requirementsAn academic background in the form of a relevant Bachelor’s

degree or equivalent is an obligatory requirement for all

Master’s programs at TU Berlin Campus El Gouna. As

professional experience is considered to be a valuable asset for

the course profile, prac�cal work experience in a subject related

field is mandatory as well. Addi�onal qualifica�ons, such as

social commitment, publica�ons, par�cipa�on in extra-curricular

academic events, language abili�es, and IT skills will also be

taken into considera�on.A qualifica�on in energy related engineering like mechanical,

electrical, or chemical engineering, or similar is required.
