Electrical engineering, Bachelor of Engineering

Distance learning program @ Centre for Distance Learning in the University Consortium 

👉 The part-time distance learning course in Electrical Engineering at the University of Kaiserslautern aims to provide a practical education for electrical engineering engineers. The course provides comprehensive knowledge in mathematics, physics, electrical engineering, and computer science in the first four semesters. Subsequently, these fundamentals are deepened and supplemented by core subjects as well as practical projects and elective courses. The programme lasts for eight semesters and concludes with a bachelor's thesis and colloquium. The combination of self-study, virtual learning components, and practical phases ensures a flexible and practice-oriented education.

Details

The aim of the part-time distance learning course in Electrical Engineering is to provide a practical education for engineers with an electrical engineering focus. The specialized training enables graduates to apply and further develop proven methods, procedures, and technologies in the development, manufacturing, and engineering of electrical and information technology products and systems. Practical experience is gained through working in the laboratory and on projects.

The first four semesters focus on the essential foundations in mathematics, physics, electrical engineering, and computer science. Starting from the fifth semester, the basics are further deepened and expanded through core subjects. Mentored industrial projects and elective events also play a significant role. In the eighth semester, there is a practical phase in industry and the completion of the final project (Bachelor's thesis). Technical content is complemented by the acquisition of non-technical key qualifications.

The standard period of study for the part-time Electrical Engineering degree course is eight semesters. The course is modular and follows the approach of Blended Learning, with a varied mix of self-study, project phases, virtual learning components, and face-to-face sessions. Course content is delivered through recorded lectures, tutorials, and multimedia learning software. Additionally, students receive academic support through a learning platform during self-study.

During the lecture period, there are two face-to-face events and approximately 10 online events on Fridays and around 2 Saturdays at the University of Kaiserslautern. During non-lecture periods, there are also two block events per year (each one week long, mostly labs).

The part-time study programme is modular and includes the following topics:

Mathematical Fundamentals Basics of Electrical Engineering, Microprocessor Technology Basics of Software Development Electronic Measurement Technology Signals and Systems Control and Automation Engineering (with Lab) Basics of Digital Systems, Components, and Circuit Electronics Automation Technology, Electrical Plant Engineering Drive Technology, Power Electronics, and Control Engineering (with Lab) Industrial Project

In the final semester, the Bachelor's thesis is written, culminating in a colloquium.

This system-accredited degree programme is offered by the University of Kaiserslautern in cooperation with the zfh. The academic leadership is under Professor Dr.-Ing. Peter Starke, Professor Dr.-Ing. Torsten Hielscher, and Prof. Dr. Stephan Werth. Coordination is handled by Miriam Würkner (M.A.).
