Language of instruction: English Tuition, other fees applicable: EU students – free of charge, non EU - 2000 Euros per year ECTS points: 30 ECTS/semester Duration: Three semesters or four semesters Program begins: Three semester program begins each year in March, four semester program begins each year in October Deadline for application December 1st for three-semester program, July 1st for four semester program Education requirements B.Sc. degree (or equivalent) in electronics and telecommunications or in related study fields Other requirements English language – level B2 (Common European Framework) Programme description Master studies in electronics and telecommunications (spec. information and communication technologies last three or four semesters. Three-semester program starts in March whereas four-semester studies start in October. The three-semester program version is meant for the B.Sc. graduates in the field of electronics and telecommunications. The four-semester program additionally has a ‘preparatory’ semester and is dedicated to the Bachelor-level diploma holders in subject areas other than electronics and telecommunications (e.g. general electrical engineering, computer science, physics, technical physics, mathematics, control engineering etc.). Thus, ‘preparatory’ semester is mainly devoted to enhance and widen the student’s knowledge in telecommunications and electronics and the curriculum following it is identical to the three-semester program. Students have a possibility to select a number of elective courses proposed by the chairs of the Faculty of Electronics and Telecommunications. A graduate receives the degree of Master of Science in electronics and telecommunications, specialization information and communication technologies. The M.Sc. graduates in electronics and telecommunications are prepared to perform research and development in the area of their education. They are prepared to work in R&D centres, telecommunications and electronics companies. They are also able to manage engineering teams involved in designing new equipment, networks, services, etc. They are ready to undertake doctoral studies. Their fluency in English allows free exchange of thoughts, interpersonal contacts and competent drawing up of technical specifications and documentations. Modes of instruction: Lectures, classes, laboratory classes, projects, internships.
