The objective of the Textile Engineering consecutive Master's Degree programme is to - Train university-educated professionals for a career with textile and clothing technology companies. This industry's characteristic feature is a continuous and fast innovation spiral leading to specialized and highly functional, high-added value products. - Develop knowledge in the field of textile technologies (spinning, weaving, knitting, non-woven textiles, clothing industry, treatment), expand a knowledge of the properties and applications of fibrous and nanofibre materials, fabric-reinforced composites and production of nanofibre and hybrid hierarchical structures. - Provide graduates with a solid understanding of fundamental theoretical and testing methods of material engineering to facilitate their fast adaptation to manufacturing, patterning and research approaches in a wide range of textile and non-textile applications. Depending on their dissertation topics students will then become familiar with the application, technological, experimental and theoretical background of other material engineering areas. With its three specialist disciplines the Textile Engineering consecutive Master's Degree programme covers the entire engineering spectrum of the textile and clothing industry.

Graduates will find immediate career opportunities in all professions of the course including manufacturing, management, research and education. They will be able to work as technology managers in production companies or the development departments of companies dealing with the processing of textiles or materials containing fibres, and expert competencies and awareness of interrelations will also be applicable in purchasing and testing of textile materials and products. They will be able to quickly adapt to other, primarily engineering disciplines requiring high qualifications. Practically as well as theoretically-focused subjects and what is referred to as soft skills will make graduates prepared for a career related to the implementation of innovations under the Industry 4.0 trend. Typical target employers include clothing and technical fabric producers and also their users such as mechanical engineering, automotive, construction and health care businesses, and elsewhere where textile and nanofibre materials are used. Graduates will be competent to continue their studies in the consecutive PhD programme in any of the textile disciplines or another engineering programme.
