Electrical Engineering / Information Technology (B.Eng.)
What makes this degree programme special?
- Shaping the future: You will learn the technical fundamentals needed to help build the quantum world, microelectronics and robotics of tomorrow
- Lots of practical experience: Excursions, industrial internships, project work
- Broadening horizons: Optional semester abroad
- also as an option with in-depth practice in cooperation companies
What is the structure of the programme?
In the first semesters, scientific and mathematical basics are taught. These form the basis for an advanced examination of engineering technology. Important focal points are mathematics and physics. These topics are dealt with in several modules. Electrical engineering is also covered in the first semesters. Further modules are:
- Electronic components
- Circuit design
- Measurement technology
- Control engineering
- Technical English
After the third semester, students choose one of the three specialisations: Automation Technology and Robotics, Communication and Circuit Technology or Computer Engineering and Artificial Intelligence. Depending on which area is chosen, the courses offered also differ. A list of the modules is provided below. You can find the contents of the courses in the module handbook. In the higher semesters, compulsory elective modules are offered, so you can partly organise your further studies yourself.
A special feature of studying at the EAH Jena is our mentoring programme: Throughout your studies, we will accompany you - if you like - within the framework of our mentoring programme. You will receive tips for everyday university life from experienced students from the higher semesters and can also gain insights and connections into professional practice through contacts with alumni. And you'll notice that our department has a family atmosphere with short lines of communication and quick solutions to problems!

What career prospects do I have after completing my studies?
Engineering needs you and is urgently looking for new workers! This also applies to the alumni of the Bachelor's degree programme in Electrical Engineering/Information Technology. Thanks to cooperation with local companies, valuable contacts can be made in practice early on in your studies. The transition into a job will then be all the easier. From manufacturing to design and consulting, everything is possible. You'll find opportunities to find work after you graduate, especially in these specialised departments:
- Hardware and software development
- Conception of media systems
- Quality assurance
- Project management
- Marketing & sales
Possible industries are for example:
- Automotive, aerospace industry
- Medical technology
- Process, manufacturing, energy and building technology
- Automotive industry
A successful Bachelor's degree enables you to study in our Master's degree programmes in electrical engineering/information technology or mechatronics.
