Electrical Engineering and Information Technology

The requirements for admission to the master's program in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology are based on the current admission regulations: • bachelor's degree a passed bachelor's degree or at least an equivalent degree in the bachelor's program in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology or a related degree program with essentially the same content at a university, university of applied sciences or university of cooperative education or at a foreign university. The program must have been completed within a regular study period of at least three years and with a minimum number of 180 ECTS credits, ECTS credit points. In exceptional cases, the selection commission may also recognize other engineering, information technology or physical and natural science degree programs. • minimum knowledge and minimum achievements in the following fields, which roughly correspond to those of the bachelor's program in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at KIT in credit points according to ECTS: Higher Mathematics: 14 CP Fundamentals in the fields of Linear Electrical Networks, Electromagnetic Fields, Electromagnetic Waves and Electronic Circuits: 19 CP Fundamentals of Information Technology and Systems Engineering (in particular Fundamentals in the fields: Digital Technology, Information Technology, Measurement and Control Technology and Signals and Systems): 17 CP • Higher Mathematics: 14 CP • Fundamentals in the fields of Linear Electrical Networks, Electromagnetic Fields, Electromagnetic Waves and Electronic Circuits: 19 CP • Fundamentals of Information Technology and Systems Engineering (in particular Fundamentals in the fields: Digital Technology, Information Technology, Measurement and Control Technology and Signals and Systems): 17 CP Persons who have completed their university degree in a country that is not a member of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and is not a signatory to the Lisbon Convention must also have successfully completed a test, either the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) in the Electrical Engineering discipline or the Graduate Examination Test (GRE). The following scores must have been achieved in the GRE: • Verbal Reasoning: at least 151 points • Quantitative Reasoning: at least 164 points • Analytical Writing: at least 4 points The selection commission decides on subject-specific aptitude by awarding assessment points for the following achievements (not identical to ECTS credit points): • Mathematics: up to 20 points • Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering: up to 20 points, the contents of the bachelor's modules "Linear Electrical Circuits", "Electronic Devices and Circuits", "Electromagnetic Fields and Waves" at KIT are particularly important • Digital Technology, Information Technology and Systems Engineering: up to 20 points, particularly important are the contents of the bachelor's modules "Digital Technology", "Information Technology", "Signals and Systems" and "C
