Electrical and Microsystems Engineering

Electrical engineering and microsystems engineering are the core constituents of this Master of Engineering course. In the foundation course catalogue, you will start by building a basis for an interdisciplinary understanding of the parallel field of knowledge. The foundation course catalogue is divided into three subject groups: semiconductor technology, optoelectronics, and microelectronics. From the consolidation and interdisciplinary course catalogues, you can make a largely personal choice of subjects, which will enable you to deepen and broaden your knowledge while promoting personality development and the acquisition of management knowledge and skills. The consolidation course catalogue offers a variety of choices like LED technology, advanced packaging, cybernetics, or electron product engineering. Within the interdisciplinary courses, you can choose between international empowerment, business studies for engineers, quality and reliability, among others. Key areas in the choices of subjects are that of "sensors" and "semiconductor technology" as these areas play such a prominent role in our region. Regensburg has become a leading centre for sensor technology and optoelectronics in Bavaria, with a wide variety of jobs available for highly qualified specialists. The MEng study programme also includes a special project and a Master's thesis, which will be done in cooperation with companies in the area like Osram, Infineon, or Continental. The close cooperation of OTH Regensburg with these world-leading companies allows students to gain insight into their work and gain practical experience. The course is configured to allow students to mix and match their own study profile in line with the needs of the employment market. The course content is taught so that students learn to work scientifically with the focus on problem solving and to act responsibly and effectively. Besides imparting knowledge on the subject matter, the course encourages personality development and the acquisition of leadership knowledge and expertise. Course graduates will be able to assume management responsibilities as well as perform purely technical tasks.
