Программа обучения "Computer Engineering" в Paderborn University

Computer Engineering

Computer Engineering is a field that involves the analysis, design and evaluation of computer systems with their hardware and software layers, and the use of computer-controlled systems in cars, smart phones and medical technology, for example. As a modern engineering science at the interface of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering is a key information technology discipline.

Описание программы обучения "Computer Engineering"

Starting with the Bachelor's program, the Computer Engineering study program provides a wide range of knowledge in the fields of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics. In the Master's program, students are provided the opportunity to deepen their experience in embedded systems, nano/microelectronics, communication technology, networks, or other current Computer Engineering fields. In addition to professional education, the study program of Computer Engineering also values practical relevance and professional qualifications through labs, project work, seminars on the legal and social aspects of information technology, and soft skills.

The Bachelor's program in Computer Engineering is held in German; the Master's program can be studied in German or in English. Because English is such an important language for the field of information technology, all students must complete a minimum of courses held in English (24 ECTS credits). Taking an elective course, for example in the area of languages, helps students further improve their language skills.

Карьерные перспективы по завершению программы обучения "Computer Engineering"

Through the excellent education at Paderborn University, Computer Engineering graduates have many career options open for them. Computer engineers hold specialist and manager positions in research and development, project planning and manufacturing, measurement and test engineering, service and sales, management, and also education and training. The interdisciplinary qualifications acquired at the interface of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering are in large demand in especially these areas:

  • Computer Technology
  • Communications Technology, e.g., mobile communication
  • Nano/Microelectronics
  • Embedded Systems, e.g., automotive technology, aerospace and medical systems
  • Microsystems Technology
  • Manufacturing Process Automation
  • Robotics

These areas have a very high turnover and a high demand for qualified workers. This is especially the case in Germany, with its many leading companies in the automotive, medical, automation and mechatronic industries. Because the existing "engineering gap" will increase in the coming years, excellent job prospects are expected on the whole for Bachelor's and Master's graduates in Computer Engineering.

Students acquire competence not only in their major field. Multidisciplinary expertise is also trained intensively throughout their studies through projects, seminars and internships. As a result, Computer Engineering graduates hold the best prerequisites for their professional career. In comparison to graduates of the Bachelor's program, the Master's program graduates receive an in-depth education. Because the topics in the Master’s program are oriented towards the areas listed above, Master’s graduates already gain specialized qualification in specific scientific fields. In addition, through the specialization areas and the Master's thesis they are introduced to current scientific challenges, and are thus optimally prepared for industrial or academic research.

Учебный план программы обучения "Computer Engineering"

The Bachelor’s program of Computer Engineering is divided into two phases with the goal of providing a broad general knowledge in Computer Engineering. The first 4 semesters (basic studies, or the 1st phase) cover the required courses that lay the foundation for scientifically-based university studies. The 5th and 6 semesters (advanced studies, or the 2nd phase) also cover elective courses, which give the students the opportunity to select topics that let them follow their own individual interests.

In the first phase of studies, students complete required modules in Mathematics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. In the engineering discipline of Computer Engineering, not only the basic subjects, but also career-oriented practical training plays an important role. The offered courses include many practical exercises and experiments in the basic modules, and also two courses tailored to the studies of Computer Engineering: In the third semester, a lab in microcontrollers and interface electronics provides students an introduction to fundamental measurement technology and the interface between hardware and software. In the fourth semester, students work on a team project in system design, focusing on a joint major task in hardware/software design. To become prepared for the methodology this project work entails, students complete a course in project management during the third semester.

The second phase covers compulsory and elective modules. In addition to two compulsory modules in Electrical Engineering and the final Bachelor's thesis, the required courses on business private law and the social aspects of information technology are central to the students’ professional qualification. In the Key Competences module, an introductory seminar and an elective course are held on soft skills, and participation in the mandatory mentoring program is set up. The introductory seminar provides not only a deeper knowledge in certain specific points, but introduces students to seminar-related work, including giving a presentation and writing a report. In parallel, elective courses increase the students' individual strengths in language, writing and presentation skills. The mentoring program requires that students conscientiously plan their studies by reflecting on their progress and through dialogs with university instructors. Work on the final thesis includes writing the actual Bachelor's thesis and completing the preparatory work in the planning phase. The topics of the Bachelor's thesis are designed so that a 9-week time frame of full-time work is sufficient for writing the thesis. The thesis topic is designed during the planning phase and drawn up in cooperation with a thesis advisor. A 12-week total of full-time work is planned for the entire final thesis. In the Bachelor's program, the students’ individual interests are supported by two elective modules in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.

    Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics
    Paderborn University

    In times of digitization, the Faculty, with its three institutes of electrical engineering, computer science and mathematics alone, has a key position in shaping society for technical reasons. In the next few years, it will be important to develop a suitable positioning that, on the one hand, addresses the breadth of interdisciplinary points of contact from the digital humanities to optoelectronics and quantum informatics, but also devotes itself to the respective disciplinary profiling and positioning.
