Description/content 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 , 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 2 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 a 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.

Course Details

Course organisation This MEng course is offered as a full-time or dual study programme with a standard length of three and four semesters respectively. The course provides two theoretical semesters for full-time students and five theory semesters for part-time students. The theory semesters include a project carried out in one of the research facilities of OTH Regensburg, plus one semester for the Master's thesis, which is usually prepared with the support of a local enterprise active in the chosen field. Opportunities to write the Master's thesis or spend parts of the course abroad are offered and assisted.

And with its "hochschule dual" initiative (the "family" brand for dual study courses at universities of applied sciences in Bavaria), the Faculty of Applied Natural Sciences and Cultural Studies offers a dual version of the MEng Electrical and Microsystems Engineering in partnership with a large number of businesses. With excellent job and career prospects, financial security, and the regular application of the acquired knowledge in a business context, it offers an ideal link between theory and practice. It is thus aimed in particular at prospective students who are highly goal-oriented and motivated to achieve.

In addition, it is possible to study the course completely in English. This allows international students to obtain a Master's degree at OTH Regensburg. Our international students will be supported academically as well as with administrative matters.

In cooperation with our partner university Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman in Malaysia, we also offer a double degree programme in which you will obtain a degree from OTH Regensburg and Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman.
