The close personal contact between teaching staff, employees and students in the department in research and teaching is an essential element of the degree programme. The department offers foundational degree programmes in electrical engineering and computer science. The Electrical Engineering degree programme benefits from this through interdisciplinary work both within the department and through cooperation across departments. In addition, the department is organised along the lines of FH Münster's international activities.

For the admission of the master's degree programme, a relevant graduation of a first professionally qualifying degree in the field of engineering or natural sciences with an overall grade of at least "good" (2.5) is required. In the Master's degree, students acquire the necessary skills in their area of specialisation through in-depth modules. In addition to the in-depth modules, there is a broad spectrum of compulsory elective modules to meet the technological challenges.

Long-standing international collaborations are being expanded and new international partnerships for research and teaching are being organised. External theses abroad are supported and collaborative doctorates, including with partner universities abroad, are made possible. The department has established a degree programme in International Engineering – Electrical Engineering. The aim is also to make it possible for foreign and domestic students to pursue research and development activities and final theses in the other department.

The department is excellently equipped technically, with programming boards, data cards and software licences, etc. There is also comprehensive access to electronic databases such as IEEE Xplore and the Testing and Certification Institute (VDE) and Association of German Engineers (VDI) standards.

Good Master's students are asked early on about the possibility of continuing their studies (doctorate programme). Within the limits of the funds available, the intention is to create staff positions primarily in research. Collaborative doctorates are increasingly supported, any necessary continuing education is included in the support measures. Within the framework of the master's projects in the master's degree programme, there are also special structures with high research potential.

The promotion of diversity is strategically anchored in the University Development Plan at the Münster University of Applied Sciences. It is a cross-cutting topic in all major institutions and activities of the university. With the diversity strategy, we aim to best support all members of the university family in their differences. The topic of sustainability and climate protection is also anchored in the university development plan. Climate protection measures are being taken.
