Interdisciplinary training; Practically oriented teaching; Students are taught the engineering basics and methods, key technical qualifications, application-specific system knowledge and non-subject-specific skills such as teamwork, verbal skills, presentation skills and project management.

The Hochschule Deggendorf THD cooperates with many partner universities worldwide. The following can therefore be completed abroad: Semester abroad, work placements, Bachelor's theses.

The Mechatronics degree course (Bachelor’s degree) is supported by the Departments of Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics, but it is interdepartmental and involves the Departments of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and Media Engineering and Applied Computer Science. As a result, all laboratories of these three faculties can be used for training. Laboratory topics include production and automation technology, computer tomography, electronics, software, acoustics, materials and material testing, energy technology, robotics, autonomous vehicles etc. as well as project areas for students.

Students of the degree course in Mechatronics can be involved in research projects/third-party-funded projects both as part of work placements/project work/Bachelor's theses or through cooperation with local industry. Possibility to be part of the Formula-Student team.

Faculty professors are active in the ITC1 start-up centre, a number of schemes including the Silicon Valley programme support spin-offs.

Close contact between professors and students; Many additional exercises offered on basic subjects; Modern laboratory equipment; Numerous programmes to promote students.
