For those who cannot study full-time, for example because of a job or family commitments, the Faculty of Engineering offers the possibility of studying part-time.

Part-time master's programs

The part-time master’s programs makes it easier for students to better combine their studies and careers. Eleven part-time courses are offered by the Faculty of Engineering, ten of which lead to the academic degree of Master of Science (M.Sc.). In the part-time master’s program “Teaching Engineering in Vocational Schools”, on the other hand, students earn the degree of Master of Education.

Part-time study, in short, means that students have eight semesters to complete their degree instead of the specified four semesters. The time required to complete the master’s thesis is doubled to a maximum of twelve months.

The following part-time master’s degree programs are offered by the Faculty of Engineering:

  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Chemical and Biological Engineering
  • Chemical Engineering
  • Communications and Multimedia Engineering
  • Electrical Engineering, Electronics, and Information Technology
  • Energy Technology
  • Computer Science
  • Information and Communication Technology
  • Life Science Engineering
  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Mechatronics
  • Medical Engineering
  • Teaching Engineering in Vocational Schools
