Hochschule Aschaffenburg University of Applied Sciences takes a similar route through logistics, transportations and quality, and it is slightly larger, at about 3,500 students against roughly 2,500 here, and is public, whereas this institution is private.
The comparison with Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft Berlin is straightforward on subjects, since both focus on sound engineering, ergonomics and UX and logistics, and it covers food science and geotechnics as well, and is far larger, with about 14,000 students against roughly 2,500 here.
The comparison with Hochschule Kempten University of Applied Sciences is straightforward on subjects, since both focus on logistics, transportations and optics, and it runs the same bachelor's, master's and mba programmes, and covers food science as well.
Hochschule Offenburg follows much the same lines as this school, with sound engineering, ergonomics and UX and logistics as common ground, and it is public, whereas this school is private, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and mba programmes.
A good alternative in the same country is Ostfalia Hochschule für angewandte Wissenschaften, which likewise covers sound engineering, ergonomics and UX and logistics; it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and mba, and covers food science and geotechnics as well.
Most Similar Schools Abroad
ECE École d'Ingénieurs brings a France setting to the same core fields, logistics, aerospace and transportations, and it is slightly larger, at about 3,000 students against roughly 2,500 here, and is also a private institution.
Warsaw Management University (Poland) works on the same fields as this school, chiefly ergonomics and UX, logistics and transportations; it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and mba, and is larger, enrolling about 5,000 students against roughly 2,500 here.
Students considering a move abroad can look at Ashikaga University in Japan, where transportations, optics and signal processing also form the core, and it is also a private institution and also offers doctoral programmes.
For transportations, optics and signal processing outside the home country, Hiroshima Kokusai Gakuin University in Japan is a natural reference; it is also a private institution and does not run the mba programmes found here.
A foreign alternative with a similar emphasis on ergonomics and UX, quality and signal processing is ESGI in France, and it is slightly smaller, at about 2,000 students against roughly 2,500 here, and is also a private institution.
*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.
*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:

known locally and internationally
is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
