An agreement has been reached between Ulm University faculty of Engineering and Ulm University of Applied Sciences faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, which provides a joint integrated course model which on completion of 10 semesters leads to a Master of Science degree from Ulm University. For this purpose the courses at the two Universities are closely inter-balanced and mutually coupled. Students of the Bachelor Degree course, communications technology, industrial and automotive electronics have access to relevant courses at Ulm University and can graduate after a further 3 semesters.

At the end of the sixth semester a recommendation will be made to Ulm University for the Master’s Degree course based on good performance. This entitles students to attend lectures at Ulm University of Applied Sciences and also Ulm University during the seventh semester. Those at the Ulm University of Applied Sciences will be recognised as compulsory subjects. At the end of the seventh semester the student receives the degree in Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) with special focus on a sound professional qualification.

A good Bachelor degree entitles students to enter the second semester of the relevant 4-semester Master’s Degree course at Ulm University immediately. They will be registered at the University and can attend theory-orientated lectures and workshops of the second and third semesters. The forth semester is devoted to the Master dissertation which students can choose to undertake either at Ulm University or Ulm University of Applied Sciences. The certificate and Master’s Degree will be issued by the Ulm University. The course for the Master of Science (M.Sc.) lasts in total 10 semesters.
