Special features regarding teaching in the bachelor's degree programme

Good networking of the faculty with research activities at the university's own Technology Campus; Consecutive Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electromobility and Computer Science. Accredited by ASIIN; Teaching supported by the DegTrepE project funded by a federal and state programme. In addition, a combination of virtual (e.g. online lectures via Teams or Zoom, virtual courses on our learning management platform iLearn) and non-virtual (e.g. face-to-face lessons) learning settings is essential for modern and innovative teaching and is largely standardised.

Special features regarding teaching in the master's programmes

Good networking with research activities at the university, the degree course is characterised by practice- and application-oriented teaching. Students deepen their knowledge in key areas such as power electronics, automation engineering, embedded systems and renewable energies. A high proportion of practical work through laboratory projects and industry collaborations promotes close links between theory and application. Small learning groups enable individual supervision, while interdisciplinary projects and research skills prepare students for demanding professional challenges.

Special features regarding the international orientation

Bavaria's most international university with 48% international students, particularly high number of international students in Master's programmes, 200 partner universities in 59 countries, partnership programme "European University HEROES", various events for and with the international students, e.g. International Work Placement Day, International Week and "Taste the World", host family programme, promotion of stays abroad for German students, partner Bachelor's degree courses with three semesters of teaching in English and German lessons anchored in the curriculum

Special features regarding the equipment

The department offers, among other things, 3 computer rooms with the latest software and 25 laboratories featuring the best technical equipment, providing the basis for an up-to-date, practice-oriented engineering education. These include laboratories for electrical metrology, electromagnetic compatibility, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and semiconductor analysis, and much more. It also has numerous investment funds for large-scale equipment. In addition, the laboratories form the basis for numerous research and development projects at the Deggendorf Institute of Technology (THD) and thus offer students opportunities for bachelor's and master's theses.

Special features regarding research and development

The RoboCT research group conducts research into applications and methods of robotic computed tomography (RoboCT). The Department of Power Electronics conducts research on the topics of power electronics for e-mobility (motor vehicles, rail vehicles, etc.), high-efficiency, high-performance charging stations (in combination with storage solutions), DC/DC conversion in the environment of electrolysers/fuel cells, smart grid & renewable energies and AC/DC conversion in the 16.7 and 50 Hz grid; TC Plattling working group: High-performance lithium-ion batteries, ageing effects (e.g. during rapid charging), innovative electrode morphologies

Other special features

There is a unique concept behind the Deggendorf higher education system: The Technology Campus (TC). Since 2009, Deggendorf Institute of Technology (THD) has been successively establishing these special research facilities in the neighbouring districts. Experts there develop special, application-oriented solutions in close cooperation with high-tech companies. At the heart of this institutional work is the symbiosis of scientific research and its economic application. In addition, there is an extensive range of continuing education courses for career-integrated studies and the possibility of a modular course with certificates.
