Electrical Engineering

This education guide contains study related information about the major Electrical Engineering within the TU/e Bachelor College as well as all kinds of practical study information. The website is updated regularly throughout the academic year.

Additionally, all students are added to the CANVAS page 5INFO-23/24. This is the communication channel for all students of the educational programs of the Department of Electrical Engineering. Via announcements you receive important information, messages and updates about our education. To make sure you don't miss any announcements, it's important that you turn on the notifications for the announcements and that you make sure you subscribe to one or more of the sub channels to receive the information that is applicable to you.

Electrical Engineering is about many things that are essential parts of people’s lives. It involves power generation, communication, healthcare and the environment, and electrical engineers solve a wide range of problems related to these topics. The department’s research focuses on smart, innovative electrical components and on the design of electrical systems, which may become very complex. We cooperate closely with the regional high-tech industry and with other partners all over the world. 

The Electrical Engineering discipline is constantly changing. As a graduate of the Electrical Engineering Master's program you will find yourself equipped for researching, discovering and exploring new boundaries and for leading others along that way. 

The purpose of the master's program of Electrical Engineering is to teach students to work independently on complex research and design projects with the ability to rethink existing concepts and develop new ones. In the final phase of the program students will be able to present the results of their work to an international community. The curriculum of the Electrical Engineering master's program comprises core courses, specialization courses, elective courses, professional development courses, an internship and finally a graduation project in which the student demonstrates his/her engineering ability to a high standard. 

These pages describe the current master's program of Electrical Engineering. There are two related special master’s tracks: Care & Cure and Connected World Technologies. Note that these special master's tracks are in essence the master’s program of Electrical Engineering with specializations focused on health care and telecommunication domains.  

Please note the several opportunities for students of the master’s program of Electrical Engineering to enjoy an international experience.
