Embedded Systems Engineering unites the worlds of engineering and computer science, combining hardware and software topics.

In this Master’s programme, we provide you with versatile know-how in computer science and engineering. As an embedded systems engineer, you will not only know how to design micro-electronic and micro-mechanic devices, but you will also know how to programme the software that makes them work.

The Department of Computer Science and the Department of Microsystems Engineering provide an excellent environment for this interdisciplinary degree programme.

You will gain knowledge about the design of microelectronic, micro-mechanic and software-based components as well as their integration into complete systems. An extensive selection of courses allows you to set an individual focus or specialize in one of the following areas:

  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Cyber-Physical Systems
  • Circuits and Systems
  • Materials and Fabrication
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Photonics

Please note:
From the summer semester 2020 on there may be deviations from individual regulations of the admission regulations, selection and entrance examination regulations as well as the study and examination regulations from the Corona Statutes [de].

Disclaimer
The versions of statutes with relevance to teaching and learning provided on this page by the Department of Legal Affairs (in particular admission and selection regulations as well as subject and examination regulations) are primarily for information purposes. This means that all amendments subsequently agreed upon by the University Senate have been integrated into the respective text of the original statutes; in the case of the examination regulations for bachelor's and master's degree programmes, this generally relates to extracts of the respective examination regulations (framework examination regulations, subject-specific provisions, and appendices).
The greatest care has been taken in writing these versions. Nevertheless, it cannot be entirely ruled out that errors may have occurred. Consequently, it is solely the officially announced statutes and statute amendments that are legally binding, i.e. as published in the Amtlichen Bekanntmachungen der Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg im Breisgau [de] or, up to the year 2000, in the official gazette of the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts.
