- Description/content
- In the Research in Media Engineering (RME) Master's programme, students are encouraged to translate personal inspirations and curiosities into their own research projects. In order to make the programme more flexible, we thus group connecting fields into the following main focuses:
• Media Technology
• Signal Processing and Transmission
• Practical Computer Science
• Graphic Imaging and Virtual Techniques
• Light and Optics
• Usability
Examples of these priorities include the following modules:
• Audio Signal Processing & Audio Systems
• Advanced Psychoacoustics
• Audio Coding
• Video Coding
• Video Systems Technology
• Image, Video, and Perception
• User-Centric Engineering
• Communication Networks
• Multirate Signal Processing
• Adaptive and Array Signal Processing
• Mobile Communications
• Practical Informatics
• Neuroinformatics
• Advanced Computer Graphics
• Game Development
• Virtual Reality in Industry
• Technical Optics
Students can combine these modules according to their interests and goals. Typical module combinations for job possibilities in research, development, and management include the following examples:
• Audio Engineering
• Video Engineering
• Augmented and Virtual Reality
• User Interface Design
• Multimedia Engineering
• Lighting Engineering
• Television Studio Engineering
