Electrical Engineering (EE)

Master of Science (M.Sc.)

About the Program

This Master's program in Electrical Engineering builds on and extends existing knowledge in the field. Students can freely choose and combine modules from three advanced subjects: general electrical engineering, microelectronics and communication technology, and systems engineering. The program offers two major fields of study: Power Engineering (Elektrische Energietechnik) which involves the generation, transmission, conversion and application of electrical energy, including energy production from renewable sources, such as bioenergy and wind power plants, construction, operation and control of electrical drive systems and high temperature electronics; and Information Technology (Informationstechnologie) which is primarily concerned with the processing and transmission of digital information, ranging from digital signal processing and data transmission to circuit design, embedded systems and multi-processor systems as well as mobile and wireless communication systems. The first three semesters involve selecting modules according to the chosen specialization, and the fourth semester is reserved for the master thesis. The program also includes compulsory language courses.
