Admission to the Master's degree programme in Electrical Engineering

Prerequisites

A prerequisite for admission to the Master's degree programme in Electrical Engineering is a first professionally qualifying university degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering or Sustainable Engineering with a minimum grade of 2.5.

If the previous university degree was not in a degree programme in Electrical Engineering, proof of a total of at least 15 credit points from at least two of the following subject areas is required for admission:

  •     Dynamic systems, signal processing (analogue and digital)
  •     Microcomputers

In addition to the minimum grade, at least 210 credit points according to the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) are required for the first professionally qualifying university degree.

Applicants with fewer than 210 credit points can have relevant practical work experience recognised in order to acquire the missing credit points. The professional activity must be at least six months after the first professionally qualifying university degree.
