The MSCE program is a two-year program divided into four semesters, including 3 course semesters, a 9 week internship and a 6-month Master's thesis. MSCE offers two specializations: communications systems and communications electronics. The communications systems section concentrates more on the system aspects of communications technology. The communications electronics section is focused on IC design and the aspects of hardware implementation.
The majority of the courses are taught by the department’s full professors, many of whom are IEEE fellows. In the summer semester, renowned international professors come to Munich to give guest lecturers on advanced topics from the field of Communications Engineering within the MSCE program. Additionally practically oriented advanced topics courses are being offered each winter semester by lecturers from the industry.
The MSCE program offers two specializations: communications systems and communications electronics. Depending on the choice, the curricula for the 2nd and 3rd semesters differ.
The first semester starting in October is common to both branches with courses on Information Theory and Source Coding, Digital IC Design, Broadband Communication Networks, Adaptive and Array Signal Processing (DSP), and Engineering Management.
The second and third semester is composed of a mixture of elective and mandatory courses depending on the chosen specialization. The courses of both branches are accompanied by a broad range of complementary Labs and Seminars.
The Communications Systems branch offers courses on Channel Coding, Mobile Communications, Optical Communications, Image and Video Compression, Multimedia, Pattern Recognition, Navigation, Communication Networks, Wireless Networks, Circuit Theory, MIMO Systems, Realtime Systems and High Frequency Engineering.
The Communications Electronics branch offers courses on Electronic Design Automation, Mixed Signal Electronics, Integrated Systems Technology, IC Manufacturing, Testing of Digital ICs, Hardware/Software Co-Design, Nanoelectronics, Nanotechnology, Physical Electronics, Mathematical Methods of Information Technology, System on Chip Solutions in Networking, Circuit Theory and High Frequency Circuit Design.
A paid internship of 9 weeks in a German company is intended for the semester break between the 2nd and 3rd semester. The program is concluded with a Master's thesis during the fourth semester and the graduation ceremony.
