Profile
The Bachelor Study Programme in Electrical
Engineering and Information Technology leads to a
first professional qualification. The syllabus is divided
into modules. The foundation modules centre on
basic instruction in natural sciences, mathematics,
electrical engineering and information technology.
The advanced modules in the respective areas of
specialization, the practical project and the final thesis
prepare students for the handling of specialized
knowledge with specific foci, so that as graduates
they are able to manage projects independently.
In the areas of specialization, students acquire
subject-related expertise in the following fields:
– Automation Technology
– Electrical Power Engineering
– Microelectronics
– Information Technology
– Communications Technology
Within a technical elective, students can expand their
skills in the respective areas of specialization or
deepen further their engineering expertise. In parallel,
transferable skills are taught in the framework of
modules on “English as a Foreign Language” and
“Fundamentals of Business Administration” as well as
a non-technical elective. The programme ends with an
eight-week practical project and the final thesis.
Career prospects
The Bachelor Study Programme in Electrical Engineering
and Information Technology leads to a first professional
qualification. Possible areas of employment – both in small
and medium-sized enterprises as well as in the public
sector and in multinationals – are: Distribution, project
planning, management and implementation, design,
planning, logistics, production control, business process
management, quality management.
