Program overview
What is the degree program about?
The aim of the Master’s program in Electrical Engineering-Electronic Information Technology is to provide students with in-depth engineering methods and knowledge as well as research-qualifying scientific working methods.
A wide-ranging module catalog enables many specializations in the Master’s program. The field of study chosen in the Bachelor’s program can be further deepened in the Master’s program, but it is also possible to choose a new, different field of study.
The Master’s program consists of core and specialization modules of the field of study as well as one laboratory internship and one main seminar each of the field of study. In addition, elective modules and one main seminar from the range of courses offered by the entire university as well as a laboratory internship from the range of courses offered by the Faculty of Technology must be successfully completed. In addition, there is a research internship at an EE chair. The 6-month Master’s thesis serves to demonstrate the ability to work independently on scientific tasks in electrical engineering, electronics and information technology.
120 ECTS points are required for successful completion of the master’s program.
