'Wirtschaftsingenuerswesen' is called 'Engineering managment' in English:

It's quite a difficult topic, at least in Germany, because you need to 
learn both 'engineering' and 'ecomomics'.

The title I actually have is 'Dipl.-Ing.' and in English called

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_of_Engineering_Management

Btw: I have spent actually some time in the 'Fraunhofer Institute' of 
Berlin Charlottenburg and wrote my Diploma thesis for Prof. Spur.

The rather strange thing was, that I have never seen Prof. Spur 
personally (not a single time!).
