Quantum Engineering

Objectives and Syllabus:
At the beginning of the programme, students complete courses from an adaptation area, the scope and content of which is determined by whether admission to the master's programme is based on a bachelor's degree in physics or in engineering. The adaptation area is designed to provide students from diverse backgrounds with the skills necessary to successfully complete the master's programme. In addition to the interdisciplinary core courses in quantum engineering, students can select advanced courses from the extensive range of quantum physics and engineering modules. 

In the second year, students have the opportunity to conduct research at the academic level by completing an independent research project, or they can complete an internship at an external institute or in industry. Alternatively, students can apply for an exchange programme and spend the third semester abroad at a partner university. Students complete this strongly research-oriented programme with the 6-month Master's Thesis.

Knowledge: graduates have in-depth and extensive knowledge of engineering, physics and quantum technologies. Thus, they are qualified for scientific work and responsible positions in their professional careers. They possess a critical mindset towards newer developments in their discipline.

Skills: graduates will be able to

• apply innovative approaches to solve fundamental problems and develop new scientific methods in the emerging field of quantum technologies;
• develop conceptual designs and solutions to complex, sometimes unusual, problems in interdisciplinary areas;
• create and develop new products, processes, and methods.
