Dresden University of Technology Dresden · Saxony

About the Program

The ongoing miniaturisation in the microelectronics industry gives rise to systems that are now being referred to as nanoelectronic systems. Such systems offer a variety of applications, but their design and implementation are becoming increasingly complex. This is the motivation for the Master's programme in "Nanoelectronic Systems". This programme focuses on three key areas: Technologies for nanoelectronic systems Design of nanoelectronic systems Applications of nanoelectronic systems The correlation/overlap between these areas will also be covered. The programme does not only focus on traditional scaling ("More Moore"), but also on ideas and concepts for "More than Moore" and "Beyond Moore". The practical training (offered in parallel with theoretical concepts) develops skill sets and expertise that can be used during internships, project work, and for the Master's thesis, which can be undertaken at companies or research institutes. After successful completion of the Master's programme, students are prepared to commence research at a university or at the R&D department of a company developing state-of-the-art technology.
