In a world where technological innovations are increasingly shaping our everyday lives, the Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering is the foundation for your career as a designer of the digital future. You will acquire a comprehensive understanding of electrical and electronic systems that are used in almost all areas of modern life. With your in-depth specialist knowledge, you will develop solutions for the challenges of an increasingly networked and automated world.
Your profile for the technological future
In this degree program, you will acquire skills that are indispensable in modern industry:
The course combines solid theoretical foundations with application-oriented specializations. You benefit from modern laboratories and practical projects in which you can apply your knowledge directly. The option to choose between the specializations mechatronics, automation technology/Industry 4.0 and smart grids and installations allows you to tailor your studies to your personal interests and career goals.
With this degree course, you can choose between the regular Bachelor's degree course or the dual KIA (sandwich-style) degree course.
The KIA (sandwich-style) degree course is very good for future students who want to combine theory and practice. In addition to theoretical specialist knowledge, you will also acquire practical vocational training and at the end of your studies you will not only receive a Bachelor's degree, but also a Chamber of Industry and Commerce certificate.
