Electrical Engineering (BEng) SRH University

As an electrical engineer, you will be involved in the development of innovative products: hardware and software development, technical project management and technical sales.

In our Electrical Engineering Bachelor's programme, we teach will you everything about it.

The duration of the Bachelor's degree programme is 42 months. The degree programme is divided into five-week blocks. There is an exam for each module in the fifth week. This ensures that competencies are acquired in a focused way. There are no semesters or trimesters (terms) as such. The programme contents are conveyed by means of lectures or project-based applications and include an integrated internship.

Courses in the first academic year include the following:

• Mathematics and natural sciences I
• Mathematics and natural sciences II
• Basics: electrical engineering I

The small student groups (maximum 30 students), the mentoring system, and the open-door policy as well as the renowned, experienced teaching staff guarantee special and very individual study conditions and attention. By diving deeper into your elective during your internship (24 ECTS), and Bachelor's thesis (12 ECTS), you will have the opportunity to specialise in your chosen field. With these requirements fulfilled, your elective will be recognised as a "specialisation" on your Bachelor's degree transcript.

Internships are available. (All undergraduate students are required to complete an internship in their third year.)
