Electronics is a key technology in many areas that affect the way we live and the society in which we live. Whether it's improving health, securing peace or driving innovation, electronics is playing an important role in the development and application of solutions to the challenges of our time. Integrating sensors and analogue electronics in digital systems to connect physical world to virtual domain, applying machine learning for classification and decision-making on sensor level or edge control.
In this Master's programme, you acquire knowledge and skill to actively participate and to drive this process.
We offer 2 profiles indicating the professional orientation:
You are also free to study without profile. In addition to technical content, there is a strong emphasis on the development of intercultural competencies to prepare students for responsible professional activity in a global working society.
This postgraduate degree course aims at providing further qualifications at high level regarding knowledge and methods in the respective scientific areas of the following key technologies of the 21st century:
The faculty offers an excellent education in these fields in a laboratory environment with state-of-the-art high-tech equipment. Instruction in small groups combined with project-oriented laboratory work create a stimulating learning environment. Lectures with about 50% "hands on" experience and project work prepare for professional activity in industry and research.
Cooperative projects with partners in relevant companies as well as research and development projects in our laboratories guarantee an extensive training in engineering skills as well as business studies and soft skills, promoting your career in industry and science.
The programme is postgraduate in nature and leads to the degree Master of Science (M.Sc.) in the specific course profile selected by the candidate.
The Hochschule Bremen - City University of Applied Sciences offers you a comprehensive service programme that will accompany you throughout your entire time of studies in Bremen.
We look forward to receiving your application.

After completing the degree programme, you have been trained to do independent and self-directed work and to be able to apply knowledge in a new professional environment related to the field of study. You have acquired the competence required for project management and have the ability to work in an interdisciplinary, international team.
This training qualifies you for working in applied engineering research and development, as well as for a leading position in industrial project planning and realization. Graduates will have excellent job opportunities and a promising career development in nationally and internationally operating companies and in research institutes.
The accredited programme (AQAS, System Accreditation) qualifies for German higher civil service in administration, engineering and research and development.
We offer different variants of this degree programme, to cover your personal needs and wants in an optimal way:
The degree comprises two categories of modules, i.e.
You may select modules to focus on a specific aspect of electronics. To qualify for one of the profiles, course modules and thesis have to be acknowledged for this profile. You are also free to study without profile to cover the highest flexibility.
In general, the modules comprise lectures with integrated exercises in small groups, seminars, laboratory work and projects/case studies. Assessments are usually at the end of each semester.
Thesis work can be conducted in industry, research agencies or in the university laboratories.
Most research projects are carried out in close cooperation with regional industry or research institutions. Research related to topics covered by our Master programme Electronics Engineering is mainly linked to activities of three institutes at Hochschule Bremen.
Within each area there are state-of-the-art laboratories, equipped with modern, powerful scientific tools. Several professors and engineers are permanently available in the institutes for teaching, research and development. Furthermore, there are scientific staff members working in research projects on a temporary basis.
Candidates must hold a Bachelor's degree in electronics engineering, instrumentation, communication, avionics, or a related subject. German language skills are not a prerequisite.
For international applicants we have a pre-selection process to make sure you have time for visa application and to save you cost and effort.
