Electrical, Electronic and Communications Engineering

Electrical engineering is an extremely versatile and innovative field whose systems and components make our modern technologies possible, from production facilities and communication technology to vehicles and energy supply. It is one of the key disciplines in industry and business. Engineers trained in Germany enjoy worldwide recognition for their specialist knowledge and expertise in key technologies. During their studies, students learn how electrical components and systems in electrical engineering, information technology, and microelectronics work and how they are used. They gain insights into the implementation of modern technologies, such as the development of renewable energy systems, low-emission vehicles, innovative communication technologies, or wireless networks. Topics such as the Internet of Things also play an important role. The course of study is deliberately broadly based and prepares students comprehensively for the diverse professional fields and areas of application in electrical engineering. This opens up a wide range of career options for graduates; in research and development, project planning, production or sales, in further education, and beyond. Due to the constantly growing demand for specialists, the career prospects for graduates are excellent. They are not only sought after in the electrical engineering and communications industry but also in mechanical engineering, the automotive and aviation industries, medical technology, energy and environmental technology, in engineering offices and by software providers. The Bachelor's degree programme provides a solid grounding and opens the door to an exciting career with future prospects in a wide range of industries or to a postgraduate Master's degree.
