Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.)

About the Program

Electrical Engineering and Information Technology now permeate all areas of our lives. Automation, electrification and digitalization characterize today's world, from electromobility to assistance systems in elderly care. The bachelor's degree program in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at KIT teaches the mathematical, physical and technical fundamentals needed to understand how things work and to develop new products. A compulsory area with mathematics, physics and the basics of electrical engineering and information technology forms the basis for application-related subjects and later specializations. The implementation of what has been learned is planned in workshops, project work and a professional or research internship. Further specialization is possible in a subsequent master's degree program. The program includes subjects like Mathematical-Physical Foundations, Electrical Engineering, Information Technology, Project Work, Interdisciplinary Qualifications, and a Compulsory Elective Subject where students choose one specialization from: Electrical Energy Systems and Electromobility, Information and Communication Technology, Automation, Robotics and Systems Engineering, Microelectronics, Photonics and Quantum Technologies, or General Electrical Engineering and Information Technology.
