About Master of Science in Microsystems Engineering

Microsystems, MEMS or micromachines: there are many names for an exciting and dynamic study field that combines expertise from areas as diverse as electrical and mechanical engineering, manufacturing technology, biology and chemistry. It thus allows engineers to conceive highly miniaturised, multifunctional systems that are used for objectives such as medical and diagnostic purposes, in communication and information systems, and in the automotive industry. The Microsystems Engineering programme (MSE) is an interdisciplinary programme that builds on a basic knowledge in electrical and mechanical engineering. The programme combines extensive coursework in advanced microsystems engineering with a concentration in two of the following subdisciplines: Circuits and systems Design and simulation Life sciences: biomedical engineering Life sciences: lab-on-a-chip Materials MEMS processing Photonics Sensors and actuators The required Master's thesis will be based on project work performed directly in a professor's research group, giving the graduate extensive, hands-on experience using the state-of-the-art microsystems infrastructure at the Department of Microsystems Engineering (IMTEK).
