Beschreibung
Modern communication technology can be characterized as an integral part of our information society in our everyday lives. These technologies determine the speed of innovation and developmental key points in a variety of societal, economic and technical areas.
The Master Degree Program Communication Engineering stands for digital transformation. The academic program has been designed to prepare our graduates for the dynamic and ever-changing digital world in order for them to successfully play a part in it. This hands-on, practical degree program enables our students to oversee the multitude of data streams in technical networks and to plan and administer modern communication systems.
Communication Engineering is built upon the three-year Bachelor of Science degree program Network & Communication Engineering. The integral concept of the degree program, however, allows students who have graduated from similar undergraduate programs to enroll. These could be BSc or Diploma Engineering programs from the fields of Informatics, Electrical Engineering or Technical Mathematics from a university or a university of applied sciences.
Graduates of this degree program attain competent qualifications for activities in private sector businesses as well as research institutions. The degree course consists of the following curricular focus areas:
- Advanced Programming
- Applied Algorithms in Network Engineering
- Communication Networks
- Mathematics
- Mobile Networks
- Projects
- Foreign Languages
- Social Skills
- Master Thesis
Engineering & IT is an unbelievably fascinating field of applied sciences. This area is characterized mainly by creativity, innovation and design. Engineering & IT is furthermore a rapidly developing area, crucial for the economic development of a region.
The students of the School of Engineering & IT should demonstrate strengths in the following areas:
- technical understanding,
- reasoning power,
- good English, mathematics and computer skills,
- creativity,
- enjoyment of innovative developments.
The Bachelor Degree Programs of the CUAS School of Engineering & IT can generally be sought without subject-specific educational background. Lots of interest, commitment and of course the possession of a general university entrance qualification are sufficient.

Qualifikationsprofil
Graduates of the master degree course Communication Engineering are able to:
- apply various software in complex and technical networks (applications, operating systems, distributed systems, UML – Unified Modelling Language, object-oriented software development (C++ and Java), configuration management systems),
- make use of modern hardware of transmission media for the planning, construction and operation of transmission paths of complex networks (wireless, optical and steer-by-wire transmission technology),
- use algorithms purposefully so as to provide solutions to technical and communicational tasks (traffic theory, graph theory, network planning algorithms, expert systems, procedure of compression, digital signal processing, modulation scheme, traffic analysis, source coding, channel coding, procedures of synchronization, protocols, design patterns and cryptography),
- integrate successfully in teams as well as supervise teams during a Project,
- work scientifically meaning to systematically present results of independent research.
Berufsfelder
The job markets of the digital world need highly-qualified engineers of communication technology, who because of their broad knowledge base are accustomed to work creatively. The international aspects of this master’s program and our high academic standards should give you the necessary security to start your career. Companies and/or research institutions should have the guarantee that they are hiring qualified employees with a practice-oriented education.
However, technical know-how alone may not be enough in today’s competitive job market; thus, so-called “soft skills” are playing a more important role in many companies. Thus, management competence and communication skills play a major role in the CE degree program and should contribute to broadening the overall profile of our graduates.
Above and beyond this – corresponding to the requirements of the daily workplace – self-responsibility and the ability to work in teams are put into practice in project-oriented courses. Students solve current problem sets on their own in small teams. Thus, innovative ideas can be implemented already in the degree program by students as they develop market-oriented business models.
The world of communication technology offers a variety of activity fields in regional middle-sized companies to large multi-national corporations. The Master of Science, an internationally recognized academic degree, offers you a good basis to enter into this world. Above and beyond this, a master’s degree offers you the option to study further in PhD programs or to pursue a career in research.
Our graduates are active in the following areas:
- Communications and Internet service providers
- Hardware and software development
- Aviation & automotive engineering
- IT consulting and service providers
- Entertainment branch / broadcasting
- Energy and traffic management
Communication and Network Engineering stands for constant change and new challenges that arise continuously. Thus, we except that our students are intellectually curious, flexible and show a high level of interest in this extremely challenging and continuously changing technological environment.
