The liberalisation of the energy market and the greater competitive challenges which this brings are making it even more important to treat sectors which used to be considered separately in a holistic way. Esslingen University of Applied Sciences has teamed up with Stuttgart University of Applied Sciences and the Netze BW training centre to offer the part-time Master programme in Network Technology and Grid Operation Gas/Water (M.Eng.). The programme was developed in conjunction with the Deutscher Verein des Gas- und Wasserfachs e. V. (DVGW), the VDE (FNN) and major energy suppliers with the aim of preparing practitioners to take on managerial roles in supply companies.

Admission RequirementsUniversity degree in a relevant discipline and subsequent professional experience.
In the first two semesters, students acquire more in-depth knowledge of the gas/water and electrical engineering sectors. This is followed by a common semester which examines overriding topics relating to network and grid management. Students then spend the 4th semester working on their Master thesis.
Network engineers are responsible for planning and setting up the operation and the maintenance of distribution networks. They develop complex engineering-specific solutions which are implemented in networks. And on completing this programme, they have all the qualifications needed to take on key responsibility in network management. These engineers are thus best qualified for a career as a specialist or manager in supply companies operating in all sectors.
This degree programme is offered jointly by Esslingen University and Netze BW GmbH. Applications must be submitted via Netze BW.
The Network Technology and Grid Operation Gas/Water programme has been designed for optimum compatibility between study and work. It provides online independent-study units in conjunction with face-to-face teaching at Netze BW in Esslingen and in the modern labs at Esslingen University.
