Bachelor’s degree course

There is currently NO entrance exam for the bachelor’s degree course in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology. All information regarding admissions procedures and registration are available here: https://www.tuwien.at/en/studies/admission/online-registration

Further information about starting the course and the first year of study can be found at ETIT Student Services.

If you are interested, further advice about the course can be obtained from the Electrical Engineering Faculty (FET).

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology

When you hear the phrase “electrical engineering and information technology”, you may think of power stations, electricity grids and household devices, but in actual fact it has connections with some highly current issues, for example: the 6th generation mobile internet, photonics, microsystem technology, nanoelectronics, traffic telematics and distributed intelligence. We all use electronic devices on a regular basis – mobile phones, computers, consumer electronics.

Master's degrees

Electrical Power Engineering and Sustainable Energy Systems

The Master's Programme in Electrical Power Engineering and Sustainable Energy Systems deals with the many aspects of the topic of "energy" with a focus on "electricity" - from provision, preferably from renewable resources, to questions of distribution and security of supply, to efficient use, for example in electromobility. Finally, energy industry issues and scenarios are addressed through more flexible and decentralized markets. Students gain an in-depth insight into the interplay of technical issues of energy provision, storage and use with economic, social and ecological aspects.

Information and Communication Engineering

Telecommunications deal with the transfer, switching and processing of messages and information. Messages in the form of language, images or data need to be converted into electrical or optical signals.

Microelectronics and Photonics

Microelectronics is the technological basis of our information society. All modern communications and information technology systems are based on this technology, as are components used in automation, consumer electronics, automotive technology, aviation, space travel and technical medicine.

Automation and Robotic System

Automation and robotic systems are now found in almost all areas of life and are key drivers of technological progress. The aim of the master's program in Automation and Robotic Systems is to conceive, analyze, design, and optimize resource-efficient automation, mechatronic, and robotic solutions, intelligent assistance systems, scientific instruments, and high-performance measurement systems, as well as autonomous and semi-autonomous functions for a wide variety of applications…

Interfaculty and Interuniversity Master's programs

Biomedical Engineering

Biomedical engineering links together life sciences with traditional engineering sciences. Healthcare is placing ever-increasing and more fascinating technical demands on biomedical engineering amidst growing demographic, ethical, ecological and cost pressures.

Computational Science and Engineering

The aim of the master’s programme Computational Science and Engineering is to introduce students to  basic knowledge in the field of applied mathematics and informatics and to allow them to further specialize in at least two key areas which can be chosen from a transfaculty course portfolio (in alphabetical order):  Computational Building Science, Computational Chemistry and Material Science, Computational Electronics, Computational Fluid Dynamics and Acoustics, Computational Informatics, Computational Mathematics, Computational Mechatronics, Computational Solid Mechanics. These specializations enable students to complement their previous studies and furthermore allow them to focus on their personal interests and strengths.

Material Sciences

The master's course in Material Sciences aims to provide a broad and fundamental education in the field of the scientific basis of materials, as well as their manufacture, examination, characterisation and application. In addition to such knowledge, graduates should also be capable of assessing and taking account of the societal and ecological dimensions of new materials.

Quantum Information Science & Technology

The imminent quantum 'revolution' in information, measurement, and device technology has led to new research areas as quantum computing, quantum simulation, and quantum communication in order to investigate the associated scientific and technological challenges. The master program is offered jointly by the faculties of technical physics, electrical engineering & information technology, and informatics and provides a unique training of quantum information science and technology that emerged as inter-disciplinary research areas at the interface between physics, computer science and electrical engineering and aims to train the next generation of quantum engineers and scientists, who will play a key role in developing solutions from basic research to practical implementation and technological realization.

Specifically, the program will start with the foundations of quantum physics, quantum technology and devices, and quantum information and computing. Subsequently, students have the opportunity to specialize in different focus areas.

Embedded Computing Systems

This master's program is jointly offered by the faculties of Informatics and Electrical Engineering and Information Technology and combines the best of both worlds. Throughout the program, you'll acquire in-depth knowledge in core concepts and methods of Computer Science and Mathematics, Computer Engineering, and Electrical Engineering. Your knowledge of scientifically sound methods lets you apply an integrative view, select suitable methods for modeling and abstraction, and find the best solutions for the engineering challenges.\ \ The skills you develop are highly relevant to industries such as semiconductors, as well as technology-driven sectors in automotive, aerospace, and healthcare. As a student, you'll benefit from interfactulty academic excellence as well as longstanding relationships with industry leaders.\ \ With a master's degree in Embedded Computing Systems, you have a bright career ahead of you -- not only in terms of salaries but also in shaping a future with trustworthy and secure systems.

Here you can find the official curriculum of the new Master's degree program Embedded Computing Systems, as well as information from the faculty of Informatics.

Important information: This program replaces the “Embedded Systems” degree program!

Doctorate

Doctorate in Electrical Engineering

The doctorate at TU Wien essentially comprises the student’s own scientific research output. With the new knowledge gained, an important contribution to the development of science is made. The thesis at the end of the doctorate constitutes the summary of the results of this research.
