The University of Kassel, founded in 1971, is characterised by a multi-layered competence network focused on nature, technology, art, and society. The
university, with its 10 faculties and its School of Art and Design, has committed itself to international cooperation and interdisciplinary research. It hosts
3,000 international students from over 130 countries among its 25,500 students. Approximately 300 professors teach and research in the fields of
engineering, natural sciences, and mathematics as well as the humanities, human sciences, environmental engineering, informatics, and arts.

The faculties are located on the main campus (Holländischer Platz) and on other campuses (Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at Heinrich-Plett-
Straße, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Wilhelmshöher Allee, Kassel School of Art and Design at the Karlsaue Park, Institute of
Sports and Sports Science at the Aueparkhalle, and the “Murhardsche” Library at Brüder-Grimm-Platz). The Faculty of Organic Agricultural Sciences can be
found in the nearby village of Witzenhausen.

Internationally orientated, short-term study courses as well as English-taught Bachelor's and Master's programmes make the university an attractive place
to study and do research. International partnerships at home and abroad strengthen its position in the area of national and international higher education.

The university also provides a wide range of leisure-time activities such as sport facilities, cultural activities, international meetings, and social events.

University Location
Kassel, with approx. 200,000 inhabitants, is located at the centre of Germany, close to the Fulda River. The city offers rich cultural and economic diversity.
Opera and theatres, concerts, open-air-events, famous art museums, and castles enrich the capital of the German “Fairytale Route”. Every five years, the
world-famous “documenta” contemporary art exhibition turns Kassel into a cosmopolitan city. There are many parks and forests in Kassel and its
surroundings where you can relax in the open air or be active. The “Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe”, Europe’s largest mountainside park, is the most famous sight
in Kassel. In 2013, the park and its water cascades became a UNESCO World Culture Heritage Site. An excellent highway and railway infrastructure provides
you with the means to explore other German and European cities in a fast and easy way (e.g., three hours to Berlin, Hamburg, or Munich).

Witzenhausen is a small, typical Hessian town, some 35 km from Kassel. Approx. 1,000 students live and work here. Historic, half-timbered houses lend a
unique charm to the small town, which is famous for its cherry orchards in the surrounding areas. The annual spring cherry blossom celebration is a
highlight for both young and old.

We are still expanding rapidly 25 years after our foundation in 1994, and we have evolved into one of the most international, pioneering universities of
applied sciences. In 2015, we established an international campus with programmes conducted exclusively in English. Our total student population of
7000+ includes 20% international students. Study groups rarely include more than 50 students to ensure not only a personal atmosphere but also
individual support and excellent qualifications. Moreover, we follow the "National Code of Conduct for German Universities Regarding International
Students", which grants international students the same rights, services and assistance as EU students.

Striving for academic excellence, we offer undergraduate and postgraduate degree courses taught in English or German, designed around the demands of
global business, in addition to language courses and short exchange programmes for Business and Engineering students from partner universities. We are
proud to have been awarded the title of top performer in the international orientation of degree programmes by U-Multirank in 2019. All degree courses are
officially accredited by FIBAA and ASIIN according to international standards.

Degrees focus on Applied Natural Sciences, Business, Tourism, Civil Engineering and Environmental Sciences, Media, Design and Communication, Electrical

Kiel University
Kiel University (also referred to as the CAU) was founded back in 1665. It is Schleswig-Holstein's oldest, largest and best-known university, with 27,000
students and around 3,000 members of staff. It is also the only fully-fledged university in the state. Seven Nobel prize winners have worked here. The CAU
has been successfully taking part in the Excellence Initiative since 2006.

Kiel University uses research, teaching and the transfer of science to address the great challenges of our time in health, environmental and cultural change,
nutrition and energy. In doing so, it ensures peace and preserves livelihoods for future generations. The CAU uses responsible actions to make sure that
scientific discoveries are transferred into all sectors of our society by interdisciplinary thought – regardless of short-lived trends – where they are
incorporated into political, economic and social decisions aimed at securing peace and prosperity.

When it was founded back in 1665, the CAU had the following motto: “Pax Optima Rerum: peace is the most valuable asset.” This maxim is as applicable
today as it was over 350 years ago. The university wants to follow this key idea and contribute towards creating a peaceful, fair world in which everyone
lives freely and comfortably. A world in which treating the environment with respect also enables future generations to enjoy the same benefits.

The mission of the CAU:


The mission of the CAU is to provide research and teaching that contribute to peace, prosperity and maintaining a pluralistic, free society, and that
addresses the challenges we are facing. They require interdisciplinary collaboration. And they deal with transdisciplinary issues. We find solutions to
today’s pressing problems and implement these together with stakeholders from society, industry and politics.

Teaching profile
Kiel University is dedicated to research-based teaching and learning. Therefore, the development of new teaching approaches is evolving constantly at the
interfaces between research from the different scientific disciplines. Students from all over the world benefit from this: research results are quickly
integrated into programme curricula and our academic staff is trained in state-of-the-art teaching methods.

Research profile
The CAU is Schleswig-Holstein’s only fully-fledged university with a major focus on research. Over time, four dynamic priority research areas have
systematically developed which are based on strong disciplines interacting together – Marine Science, Life Science, Societal and Cultural Change, and Nano
Surface & Interface Science. Each individual research area makes a substantial contribution towards dealing with at least one of the grand challenges of our
time.

University Location
The city of Kiel is located directly on the Baltic Sea coast and is the capital of the northernmost German federal state, Schleswig-Holstein. Famous for its
sailing tradition, Kiel has hosted two Olympic sailing competitions. The city's annual "Kiel Week" is the world's largest sailing event and one of the biggest
24
cultural festivals in northern Europe. Kiel's international flair is enhanced by its port, where Scandinavian ferries dock next to cruise liners and historic
ships. Those who enjoy going out will benefit from the city's lively cultural life as well as the many clubs and bars to be found between the campus and the
city centre. Kiel is a strong centre of science and research. Our students benefit from studying by the sea in a city that offers short distances and a wide
range of leisure facilities by the waterside. It takes less than 20 minutes to get from the lecture hall to the beach. A fresh breeze on your face and the right
books on hand create a great atmosphere for learning. The social conditions for studying in Kiel are excellent. Freshmen receive a welcome payment of 100
EUR when they come to Kiel to commence their undergraduate studies. Here, they have the opportunity to live in one of 17 halls of residence, which are
reasonably priced and situated close to the universities. In the most bicycle-friendly city in northern Germany, not only the universities but also other inner-
city locations can be reached conveniently by bike. The new scientific generation represents the most important resource for making Kiel, the state capital,
fit for the future. See: www.kiel.de.

Description/content Electrical engineering and microsystems engineering are the core constituents of this Master of Engineering
course. In the foundation course catalogue, you will start by building a basis for an interdisciplinary
understanding of the parallel field of knowledge. The foundation course catalogue is divided into three subject
groups: semiconductor technology, optoelectronics, and microelectronics.

From the consolidation and interdisciplinary course catalogues, you can make a largely personal choice of
subjects, which will enable you to deepen and broaden your knowledge while promoting personality
development and the acquisition of management knowledge and skills. The consolidation course catalogue
offers a variety of choices like LED technology, advanced packaging, cybernetics, or laser materials processing.
Within the interdisciplinary courses, you can choose between international empowerment, business studies for
engineers, quality and reliability, among others. Key areas in the choices of subjects are that of "sensors" and
"semiconductor technology" as these areas play such a prominent role in our region. Regensburg has become a
leading centre for sensor technology and optoelectronics in Bavaria, with a wide variety of jobs available for
highly qualified specialists. The MEng study programme also includes a special project and a Master's thesis,
which will be done in cooperation with companies in the area like Osram, Infineon, or Continental. The close
cooperation of OTH Regensburg with these world-leading companies allows students to gain insight into their
work and gain practical experience.

The course is configured to allow students to mix and match their own study profile in line with the needs of the
employment market. The course content is taught so that students learn to work scientifically with the focus on
problem solving and to act responsibly and effectively. Besides imparting a knowledge on the subject matter,
the course encourages personality development and the acquisition of leadership knowledge and expertise.
Course graduates will be able to assume management responsibilities as well as perform purely technical tasks.

26
Course Details

Course organisation This MEng course is offered as a full-time or dual study programme with a standard length of three and four
semesters respectively. The course provides two theoretical semesters for full-time students and five theory
semesters for part-time students. The theory semesters include a project carried out in one of the research
facilities of OTH Regensburg, plus one semester for the Master's thesis, which is usually prepared with the
support of a local enterprise active in the chosen field. Opportunities to write the Master's thesis or spend parts
of the course abroad are offered and assisted.

And with its "hochschule dual" initiative (the "family" brand for dual study courses at universities of applied
sciences in Bavaria), the Faculty of General Studies and Microsystems Engineering offers a dual version of the
MEng Electrical and Microsystems Engineering in partnership with a large number of businesses. With excellent
job and career prospects, financial security, and the regular application of the acquired knowledge in a business
context, it offers an ideal link between theory and practice. It is thus aimed in particular at prospective students
who are highly goal-oriented and motivated to achieve.

In addition, it is possible to study the course completely in English. This allows international students to obtain
a Master's degree at OTH Regensburg. Our international students will be supported academically as well as with

General information about studying in Germany
Important contact information
In addition to its headquarters in Bonn, Germany, the DAAD also operates a global network of regional offices and information centres. If you have any
questions, please feel free to contact us. You will find the addresses here: www.daad.de/addresses.

If you want to contact the International Office at the German university you wish to apply to, you can find the contact information here:www.daad.de/io.

Scholarships & Financing


You can find information on various kinds of DAAD funding for international students, graduates and postdocs as well as on funding offered by other
selected organisations here: www.daad.de/scholarships.

Germany is not particularly expensive compared to other European countries. But if you want to successfully study abroad, you will have to correctly
estimate the costs and ensure that you can cover them. You will find relevant information here: www.daad.de/costs.

Accommodation in Germany
There are various accommodation options for students in Germany. In addition to flatshares or your own flat, many students live in halls of residence in the
university towns.
You can find information on finding accommodation in Germany on the following website:www.daad.de/accommodation.

Information, addresses and application details for a large selection of halls of residence in Germany can be found here:
www.daad.de/accommodationfinder.

The German language


German is usually the language of instruction at German higher education institutions. Sufficient language skills are therefore a prerequisite for studying in
Germany. The most important questions and answers:

Are German language skills always necessary?


Because the language is important for your studies, you will often have to present proof of proficiency in German when you apply. Exceptions are
international degree programmes and certain postgraduate programmes. The requirement to prove your language skills may also be waived if you only
want to study in Germany for one or two semesters. Contact the International Office at your higher education institution for details.

How do I prove my language skills?


Usually you will be expected to take a German language test before you are admitted to your degree programme. There are official tests with which you can
prove your German language skills.

You can find more information at: www.daad.de/german-language.

Admission requirements
If you have already studied for several years in your home country (at least one or two years depending on the country of origin), it may often be possible for
you to be admitted directly to higher education in Germany. The same is true after completing a degree abroad.

However, not every foreign degree automatically qualifies you for an admission to continue your studies in Germany.
Bachelor's degrees obtained abroad are sometimes only recognised as an intermediate examination.
Before you apply for a postgraduate programme, you may need to take part in a placement process in the respective degree course.

You can find more information and the DAAD database on admission requirements at:www.daad.de/admission-requirements.
