The interdisciplinary study programme offers qualifications in the three basic disciplines of electrical engineering, computer science and production/mechanical engineering. Right from the beginning of their study students learn to observe a technical system holistically as one unit, they learn interdisciplinary ways of observing systems. They study in an interdisciplinary working environment from the very start.

This bachelor´s programme offers four specializations, giving students the opportunity to apply and expand their theoretical knowledge of the three basic disciplines with specific knowledge and skills in one or more areas:

• Automation technology and robotics,
• Embedded systems and system software,
• Production engineering or
• Space engineering.

The bachelor's programme comprises 210 credits (Credit Points, CP) according to the European Credit Transfer System (a standard study period of 7 semesters).

Course content:

In addition to the basic knowledge and skill set in the three core disciplines of the programme (electrical engineering, computer science and production/mechanical engineering) which are anchored in the first semesters of the curriculum, students learn interdisciplinary ways of thinking and working. They experience and learn to apply structured and methodological approaches to the given technical problems. They learn to rethink conventional solutions and replace them with often cheaper and more powerful integrated systems.

An obligatory part of the curriculum is the practicum (internship). It can be completed in Germany or abroad and lasts 12 weeks.

Studienverlaufspläne für Studienbeginn im Winter- bzw. Sommersemester
 

The fundamentals of the disciplines electrical engineering, computer science, mechanical engineering and mathematics are taught in the following compulsory modules (from WiSe22/23):

• Introduction to Systems Engineering including teaching project (6 CP),
• Mathematics for Systems Engineering I, II (9 CP each) and III (6 CP),
• Database fundamentals and modeling (6 CP),
• Direct and alternating current networks (6 CP),
• Electric and Magnetic Fields (6 CP),
• Fundamentals of modeling of technical systems (6 CP)
• Semiconductor devices and circuits (6 CP)
• Design theory 1 (6 CP),
• Metrology with laboratory (6 CP)
• Engineering Mechanics (6 CP),
• Materials engineering 1 (6 CP),
• Practical computer science 1 (9 CP) and Practical computer science 2 (6 CP),
• Computer Engineering 1 + 2 (9 CP each),
• Fundamentals of Control Engineering incl. practical course (6 CP),
• Fundamentals of Production Engineering (6 CP).

A number of elective modules are offered from the fourth semester onwards. In the specialization modules, a selection of different subject-related courses is offered depending on the specialization chosen (18 CP). In the software engineering project (6 CP) and the systems engineering project (15 CP), students work in small groups on current (research) topics that are announced annually by the working groups of the affiliated departments.

The practical module (15 CP) in the seventh semester emphasizes the practical orientation and the "hands-on" concept, which can also be seen in the teaching projects (software engineering project, systems engineering project).

The bachelor's degree module in the form of a bachelor's thesis incl. colloquium and workshop (15 CP) concludes the program.

During the course of study, courses in the General Studies area (subject supplementary studies of the University of Bremen) amounting to 12 CP must be completed.

The upper semesters of the curriculum allow students to gain in-depth knowledge in one of the four specialization areas:

• Automation technology and robotics,
• Embedded systems and system software,
• Production engineering or
• Space engineering.

An obligatory part of the curriculum is the practical (internship). This module can be completed in Germany or abroad and lasts 12 weeks.

A stay abroad and/or a semester abroad is not an obligatory part of the curriculum, but it is possible and welcome.

In addition to the classical course forms (e.g. lectures, exercises, laboratories), the student´s scientific work and team-oriented working methods are emphasised.

Examinations are carried out in forms according to the official exam regulation of the University of Bremen (the AT BPO) and the subject-specific examination regulations (the BPO).

• Systems Engineering (Master of Science)

Bachelor graduates in the subject of Systems Engineering are able to consider the system as one whole unit. Their knowledge and skills in the three disciplines (electrical engineering, computer science and production/mechanical engineering) is deepened and applied in one specialization area. Thus, graduates in the Systems Engineering bachelor´s programme have a very broad field of work e.g. development, programming and maintenance of complex facilities and systems in industry. Furthermore, they can apply their knowledge and skills in companies and organizations by managing scheduling or working in the technical EDP area.

In addition, the programme offers an excellent preparation for further master studies in e.g. the Systems Engineering master's programme at the University of Bremen.

The Systems Engineering bachelor´s degree qualifies individuals for a further master´s study in e.g. the Systems Engineering master's programme at the University of Bremen.

• Computer Science
• Systems Engineering

The bachelor´s programme Systems Engineering offers excellent opportunities for students to be involved in the (interdisciplinary) research at the University as it is a joint programme supported by three faculties:

• Faculty 01: Physics / Electrical Engineering,
• Faculty 03: Mathematics / Computer Science, and
• Faculty 04: Production Engineering – Mechanical Engineering and Process Engineering (leading faculty).

Members of the three faculties (Faculty 01, 03 and 04) of the University of Bremen carry out the Systems Engineering bachelor´s programme.

• Faculty 01 Physics/Electrical Engineering
• Faculty 03 Mathematics/Computer Science
• Faculty 04 Production Engineering
