- Description/content
- The interplay between optics and electronics is of both fundamental scientific interest and the foundation of a broad range of modern technology. Remarkable progress has been made in recent years combining techniques from areas as diverse as nanophotonics, semiconductor physics and even quantum optics. Learning how to bring fundamental principles of optoelectronic interaction out of the laboratory and engineer them into workable devices is a key skill set that will drive this field forward. Our two-year Master's course in Optoelectronics and Photonics places students squarely at the intersection of modern physics, precision engineering and state-of-the-art technology. Students will develop a broad, technical skill set as well as rigorous understanding of the underlying concepts. On completion, successful students will be ideally suited to a future academic or industrial career in this exciting and fast-moving field. We offer:
• A broad range of targeted interdisciplinary courses, taught exclusively in English
• Master's projects in internationally active research groups
• Smooth progression towards PhD study in Germany and beyond
• Career perspectives in existing and emerging industries
• A gateway to European academic and industrial networks
