Short description of the study programme

The BSc Program in Electrical Engineering is designed to give students a thorough understanding of the tools, methods, applications and practice of electrical engineering. It is both theoretical and practical in its orientation, with the goal to provide an education that is directly applicable to positions in industry.The program has an integrated curriculum. Out of the 210 credits to earn during the 7 semesters, 80 credits are dedicated to electrical engineering and the underlying knowledge. On one hand, this is provided through lecture courses for the apprehension of the theoretical background. On the other hand, there are plenty of practical and laboratory courses for acquiring the necessary proficiency and skills. Furthermore, the curriculum contains English language courses (6 credits) and basic studies in economics (10 credits). In addition to these compulsory subjects, 10 credits are to be obtained from elective subjects related to the field, and 4 credits from electives in human and economic sciences.The first 4 semesters of the program comprise mainly foundation and core engineering subjects. The last 3 semesters also include specialization subjects, laboratory work and project work. Besides, the economics subjects and the electives are to be taken during this period. In the 7th semester, students should write a thesis as well. To earn the degree, they have to take a final exam and defend their thesis.
Students can choose from the below specializations to study from the 5th semester:
• Embedded and Control Systems focuses on computer-based and application-oriented systems, which operate autonomously and have intensive information exchange with their physical-technological environment.
• Intelligent Communication is concerned with telecommunication and computer network-based applications (voice, data, image, video, multimedia and composite social information systems).
• Sustainable Electric Energetics covers the design and safe operation of electrical energy transmission and distribution systems, the design and operation of electric machines, and operational principles and applications of low and high voltage switching devices.
