Whether renewable energies, smart gadgets or revolutionary communications technology - with a deep understanding of electrical engineering, you can actively shape the world of tomorrow. The Electrical Engineering Bachelor's degree program aims to give you a broad understanding of electrical systems, technologies and applications. One focus is on the specializations mechatronics, automation technology/Industry 4.0 and smart grids and installations.
Your studies will provide you with in-depth specialist knowledge and practical experience. You have the opportunity to give free rein to your creativity and develop solutions for the challenges of our time. Ready for the future? Then you've come to the right place! Be part of a generation that not only uses technology, but shapes it.
In the introductory semesters (1st - 3rd semester), the basics of the subject are taught largely independently of your previous knowledge. These are consolidated with accompanying seminars and various practical experiments. The focus of the teaching staff is on imparting knowledge, understanding and comprehension. The practical teaching takes place in small groups and with direct supervision from the lecturers.
Building on the first semesters, the specialist studies begin, in which the knowledge is deepened. We offer the following specializations: mechatronics, automation technology/Industry 4.0 and smart grids and installations. As in the foundation course, the specialist course continues with seminars and practical experiments. You can gain your first industrial experience in the practical phase. The electrical engineering bachelor's degree ends with the independent bachelor's thesis in the 6th semester.
You can also study for a Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering on a dual basis: opt for the dual KIA (sandwich-style) degree course (cooperative study with integrated training) to perfectly combine theory and practice. In addition to in-depth theoretical knowledge, you will also receive practical training. At the end of your studies, you will not only receive a Bachelor's certificate, but also a recognized skilled worker qualification. This will give you an attractive all-round package and score points with future employers!
There are still places available on the dual version of this degree course! You can find out more on the Bachelor of Electrical Engineering (Dual/KIA) page.
As a graduate of the Bachelor's degree program in Electrical Engineering, you have a wide range of career prospects. You can pursue both a national and an international career. The knowledge and skills you acquire will open up various career paths, ranging from technical positions to senior management roles in small, medium-sized and large companies. All in a wide range of industries, including the electrical industry, automotive sector, energy supply and more.
