The University of Freiburg in southern Germany is one of the oldest universities in Germany and looks back on a long tradition of excellence in teaching and research.

Courses offered by the Department of Microsystems Engineering include:
• Bachelor’s Program Microsystems Engineering
• Master’s Program Microsystems Engineering - English
• Master’s Program Microsystems Engineering - German

Master of Science in Microsystems Engineering (MSE):
The 2 year Master of Science Degree Program in Microsystems Engineering is designed for highly qualified graduate students holding a Bachelor's degree in science or engineering.

The core courses of the curriculum include: Analytics of Microsystems, Assembly and Packaging Technology, Micro-mechanics, Biomedical Microsystems, Dynamics of MEMS, Microelectronics, MST design, Signal processing, Optical microsystems, Micro-actuators, Sensors, Probability and Statistics, MST design and Micro-fluidics.

In the second year, MSE students can specialise in two of the following seven concentration areas (elective courses), allowing each student to realize individual interests and to obtain an in-depth look at two sub-disciplines of this very broad, interdisciplinary field:

• Process engineering
• Sensors and actuators
• Circuits and systems
• Design and simulation
• Life sciences: Biomedical engineering
• Life sciences: Lab-on-a-chip
• Materials

Essential for the successful completion of the Master’s degree is submission of a Master’s thesis, which is based on a project performed during the third and fourth semesters of the program.

Each student works as a member of one of the 18 research groups of the department, with full access to laboratory and cleanroom infrastructure.
