Specializations
INFOTECH students can select from a number Specializations.
You find the information to the different profiles below:
CEMT (Communications Engineering and Media Technology) is a rapidly growing segment best reflected by the developments of the Internet, broadband, mobile and satellite networks, by competitive environments and deregulation.
Experts for strategic product definitions, service provision or network operation must not only be familiar with advanced methods and technologies in communications and computer science, but also need some basic knowledge of business and legal aspects.
The implementation of this major/specialization within the Master program INFOTECH has quite a number of common modules - by intension - both in the Core and Supplementary fields of lecture courses, in labs and seminars and definitely in the Master Thesis project with the other majors of the program.
Automobiles, telecommunications, computer peripherals, aeronautics and space technology as well as medical equipment need sophisticated control by so-called embedded systems.
'Embedded Systems Engineering' covers all aspects of the design and application of these systems. Analogue, mixed-signal and digital circuit design, RF-technology, actuators and sensors form the basis at the physical level. Methods for hardware design on a higher, more abstract level comprise HDL supported logic design and CAD techniques. With respect to the increasing use of microprocessors and micro controllers, computer science and software engineering techniques complete the curriculum.

Computer systems are widely-used in Information Technology in very different application domains like measurement systems in industrial or scientific environments and factories, control systems, data management systems, computer networks, high performance computing systems etc. Typically, these systems are based on computer hardware and software components the interaction of which is the key factor for the system performance and capabilities. Therefore understanding of the characteristics and the design options for both hardware and software is essential for the design and operation of these computer systems.
The curriculum of the Major Computer Hardware/Software Engineering (CHSE) will contribute to specializing students in the design and application on complex hardware/software systems with optimized performance, minimized power dissipation, efficient operation and similar key parameters by selecting/designing adapted hardware and software implementations.

Today's economy and entire society rest upon the dependability of information technology and especially of the underlying hardware infrastructure. The Internet of Things affects nearly all aspects of human life, introduces severe vulnerabilities into the society and relies on strong actions towards reliability, thorough testing, safety and security of the underlying hardware. The increasing complexity can only be mastered in the interplay of data, expert knowledge and machine learning. Data increasingly becomes the currency, bridging between all stages of the Semiconductor Value Chain from circuit design to in-field monitoring. Intelligently collecting and harvesting this data requires expertise from different fields.
The major “Intelligent Methods for Test and Reliability“ therefore focuses on data-driven intelligent methods for, e.g., circuit design; test and diagnosis; post-silicon validation; test generation and optimization; test software; analyzing, visualizing and learning from data; security and privacy of jointly used data; system-level test; lifetime test and reliability management; and software-based test automation.
This specialization was discontinued in PY2019 and cannot be chosen anylonger!
Micro technologies are basic technologies for innovative engineering solutions and integration of technical intelligence in future products. The miniaturization of mechanical and electronic elements and their integration by embedded information processing to micro systems has the potential for a new generation of products in a wide spectrum of applications.
'Micro- and Optoelectronics' deals with materials and processes, technologies and devices, device physics and modeling, process and device simulation, circuit design and application, system design and packaging, characterization and testing, quality and reliability of microelectronic and optoelectronic devices, circuits and systems. These topics are complemented by enabling technologies and application technologies out of the communication, software and internet world.
