    Neural Engineering (MSc)

    About

    Neural Engineering is an emerging interdisciplinary research area that merges neuroscience and engineering in order to understand, interface with and manipulate the nervous system. Applications range from brain-computer-interfaces and neuro-cognitive modelling to advanced electrode designs for implantable devices. Occupational Profile The Neural Engineering course qualifies our graduates for demanding industrial R&D positions, e.g., in the development of nerve stimulators, diagnostic devices or active implants. Other emerging occupational fields encompass neuroergonomic (e.g., automotive branch) and neurocybernetic (collaborative robotics) applications, as well as the development of tailor-made applications in neuro-rehabilitation. A considerable percentage of our Master’s graduates seek to pursue an academic career path and start a doctorate programme. Our national and international cooperation partners provide an excellent infrastructure to prepare students for a doctorate programme. Graduate students of the Neural Engineering programme participate in international research projects. This gives our students an early opportunity for active participation in the scientific community. In these projects, our students acquire essential scientific knowledge and social skills for future leadership positions. The international orientation of the Neural Engineering programme allows our students to establish international contacts in early career stages and gain confidence on the global stage.

    Requirements

    Entry Requirements

    Academic admission requirements include a Bachelor’s degree or Diploma (UAS or University) in Biomedical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science and related fields (210 ECTS). If you have completed a six semester Bachelor’s programme (180 ECTS), you are required to pass selected modules from the htw saar Biomedical Engineering Bachelor's programme with a total of 30 ECTS points. Recommended prerequisites: Applicants should have excellent grades and a sound background in engineering science. Basic knowledge of anatomy and physiology of the nervous system is recommended. Interest in research-oriented projects is presumed. All our courses are taught as a block.
