Electrical Engineering and Information Technology

The Electrical Engineering and Information Technology Master's programme is a four-semester, research-oriented course divided into compulsory modules, compulsory elective modules and the Master's thesis. The theoretical knowledge is taught at a high level with innovative teaching methods. Students can apply this knowledge in small exercise groups and gain practical experience in laboratories. Soft skills are learned in a seminar on scientific working, writing and presenting. The optional specialisation courses are designed to provide students with knowledge, insight and skills pertaining to sophisticated technologies according to the main research areas of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology. These research areas are: Automation Systems Information and Communication Technology Power and Energy One of the general aims is to provide students with the opportunity to develop their ideas and broaden their professional horizons. We believe that our students are equipped with the necessary skills, knowledge, and motivation for lifelong learning, allowing them to pursue successful careers in electrical engineering or information technology, whether in academia or industry. In the first semester, compulsory courses are offered, deepening the fundamentals of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology. In the second and third semesters, students specialise in an area and select optional modules from the above-mentioned fields. The modules are taught as lectures and exercises. In addition to theory, most optional courses include laboratories where practical skills are taught. Students will receive training in the areas of Mechatronics, Automation Systems, Electromagnetic Compatibility, Power Electronics, Image Processing and Information Technology in well-equipped laboratories. The Master's thesis should be completed in the fourth semester. Compulsory modules comprise 40 credit points, elective modules comprise 50 credit points and the final Master’s thesis comprises 30 credit points.
