The Electrical Communication Engineering (ECE) programme is designed for students with a Bachelor's degree in communications or a related area. Prospective ECE students can choose the focus of their studies from modules covering different aspects of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) layer model for communication systems including Wireless Communications, Electromagnetics, Microwaves, Optoelectronics, Enabling Technologies for Communication Systems, and Hardware Components for Communication Systems. Upon passing compulsory basic modules in the first semester, students are free to enrol in modules according to their interests. Courses can be chosen from a specific topic in order to specialise in it or combined from different topics to get an overview over different aspects in communication systems.  More information can be found at: https://www.uni-kassel.de/eecs/en/ece/modules It is possible to start the programme either in winter or summer. All courses are taught in English. In addition to the scientific education, students learn German and become accustomed to the German way of life. The programme comprises of four semesters (two years), where the first three semesters are devoted to courses, seminars and lab training organised in modules. The fourth semester is used exclusively for the final thesis module. On successful completion of the thesis module, the student is awarded the MSc degree.
