Industrial Services Management
Economic. Technical. Up-to-date
We live in a service society that needs well-trained specialists to take on technical or organizational tasks right up to the executive floor. As an expert, you assess whether production facilities are operating efficiently. You control the processes of existing plants, take on the project management of new plants in manufacturing industrial companies or in facility management.
What you can expect
Industrial services are services that are linked to an industrial plant/building and are offered by and for companies. Examples include maintenance and assembly work.
Due to the great economic importance of this economic sector, the specialization in industrial service management opens up a wide range of employment prospects for graduates. Offering and successfully managing industrial services are important building blocks for differentiation from global competition and essential for securing a location and company.
Maintenance and facility management are the areas of industrial service management with the highest turnover.

What our students say
"Industrial Services Management is a very modern degree program that deals with current topics from various fields and always has a concrete connection to practice. I like the balance between business and technology. There are technical subjects in each semester. During my studies, I specialized in maintenance and facility management. The job opportunities are very good. In November, I'm starting full-time in the costing department of a large facility service provider."
