Tutors
Each student in the Master's Programme of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology needs a tutor from the list below. The tutor helps the student with the selection of courses, and their approval is required for the selection to be valid.
Students find their tutors themselves. Each tutor on the list has their particular areas of interest; students should choose their tutor accordingly. The choice must be submitted in myStudies.
After discussion of the course selection, students must submit the Download Learning Agreement in myStudies (PDF, 443 KB) no later than four weeks after the beginning of the first semester.
Learning Agreement
The Learning Agreement is an individualised study plan, listing the courses that the student will take during the Master's programme.
This agreement contains:
- 2018 regulations (Master's with 120 credit points): core courses, specialization courses and electives.
- 2008 regulations (Master's with 90 credit points): major courses only.
None of the other credit categories of the Master's programme - the Science in Perspective (D-GESS) courses, the semester project, the internship, and the master thesis - are included in the Learning Agreement.
