Annotation

Communication and information technologies shape global society – and have a lasting impact on our daily lives. Our international engineering Master’s degree programme in Information Technology helps students to become technical experts as well as managers in the information technology industry: as a graduate you will develop and design infrastructures and devices of the future, where wireless and wired networks become even faster and more ubiquitous. Career opportunities are available in the field of research and development of technical systems as well as in the management of such projects.

The degree course is open to you in a 3-semester and a 4-semester variant, depending on whether you have already acquired a first professionally qualifying academic degree in Electrical and Information Technology with a focus on Information and Communication Technology or a comparable subject area. International students are recommended to register for the 4-semester Master's degree course in Information Technology.

With a Master's academic degree in Information Technology, you will qualify for positions in science, public administration and industry – as a technical specialist or technical manager, for example. Thanks to the different technological methods you have learned and applied during your degree course, you can work in the research and development of integrated product and service concepts in the field of information technology. Your Master's academic degree also qualifies you for a doctorate.
