About Electrical And Computer Engineering in Jacobs University Bremen

Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) - The Program

The extensive developments in microelectronics over recent decades have triggered a digital revolution where computers take center stage. While we still think of a computer as a desktop or a laptop, digital computing and digital signal processing have become vital for many of the products in our everyday life such as cars, mobile phones, tablets, cameras, household appliances, and more. The Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) program focuses on the areas of communications and digital signal processing, including the enabling digital processing elements and their programming. Those enabling technologies are mostly subsumed under the headline of embedded systems.

Highly qualified Jacobs University graduates with best employment perspectives:

Higher demands for ECE engineers are to be expected. This is partly due to general economic trends but especially related to unusually low student numbers in recent years. Especially, due to rapid developments, fundamental principles and cross-boundary knowledge become increasingly important. In addition, the required qualification profiles and personal attitudes differ for academic versus industrial careers. The ECE program at Jacobs University responds to all of these conditions for a successful career through the flexibility of the program and the trans-disciplinary education. Jacobs University ECE graduates start their careers in very diverse companies, successfully continue at renowned universities, or stay with Jacobs University for graduate education or a PhD.
