Admissions
Curriculum
The First Year
Electrical and Electronics Engineering has two specializations:
Electrical Information Engineering (EIE)
You will learn all about microelectronics and the link to the ‘real world’ with sensors. You will also learn techniques for making chips work properly, how to program chips, and about wireless communication.
Electrical Engineering for Energy Transition (ET)
How do you make electrical energy available to people as sustainably as possible? This includes the smart use of wind turbines and solar farms as well as the range of electric cars or solutions in Industrial Automation topics.
Will you choose EIE or EEET?
If you choose the EIE specialization in the second year, you will work together with Applied Computer Science students. For example, you will work on a wireless heart rate monitor. In the EEET specialization, you will work on an industrial automation project and the latest developments in the field, such as sustainable energy transition systems, direct current networks, and sustainable generation. This is done in collaboration with companies.
