Content of the Degree Program
The master's program "Nanoelectronic Systems" is research-oriented.
The course includes compulsory modules with the following topics:
Semiconductor Technology,
Integrated Analog Circuit Design,
Hardware / Software Co-Design,
Principles of Dependable Systems,
Estimation and Detection,
Academic and Scientific Work.
The range of elective modules includes the following priorities
Technology,
Design,
Applications.
The topics of the modules are materials and technologies for nanoelectronic systems, in particular memory
technology, nanotechnology, optoelectronics and molecular electronics, design methods and techniques for the
realization of nanoelectronic systems, such as high- and low-level synthesis, characterization and modeling of
electron devices, advanced integrated circuit and system design and computer arithmetic, applications for embedded
nanoelectronic systems, in particular, design, construction and use of software systems, modeling and simulation
techniques, operational and economic issues, and German language and culture.
Scope of the Degree Program
Graduates of the master's program "Nanoelectronic Systems" know methods, techniques and tools for the design and
manufacture of nanoelectronic devices and for the application of these systems in selected application areas and can
apply this knowledge. They will be able to analyze problems from these areas and to develop efficient solutions. They
recognize the relationships and dependencies of these areas and can take them into account when finding solutions.
The graduates are familiar with the latest research and developments in these subject areas and can participate
constructively in the process.
Through their broad technical knowledge and their in the context of internationally oriented modules acquired
familiarity with the worldwide research community in the areas of design, manufacture and application of
nanoelectronic systems graduates are qualified after appropriate training period to manage in professional practice
varied and complex tasks in the design, manufacture or use of nanoelectronic systems.
Organization of the Degree Program
The degree program is organized as 2 years or 4 semester degree program, where the last semester is for the
preparation of the master thesis available. The courses of the degree program are organized in modules. In each
semester 30 credits (cr) can be earned with the modules or with the master thesis and their defense. The following
table shows the distribution of the modules over the four semesters.

As elective modules we offer a list of modules, which are divided into four directions: Technology, Design,
Applications and Nontechnical Modules. This list can be changed by the study commission from semester to
semester. Each student has to select modules with 38 credits in the sum in minimum. The following table lists all
current modules with the proposed semesters and the acquirable credits.

Lecture Language
All in the degree program offered courses are taught in English. The master thesis can be written in English or
German.
Academic calendar
The winter term starts in the October and ends in the March of the following year. The summer term starts in the
April and ends in the September. The first four months of a term are course time followed by one month
exercises, where around Christmas and Whitsun a few days are usually no lectures.
The exact academic calendar can be seen on the university webpage.
Completion
If the master exam is passed successfully, the higher degree of "Master of Science" (abbreviated as M.Sc.) is given.
Fees
There is no tuition fee. Students have to pay an administrative charge of about 245 EUR per term (including ticket for
public transport), see TU Dresden -> International -> International Students -> Information A-Z -> Semester
Fee, TU Dresden -> International -> International Students -> Information A-Z -> Re-Registration, or TU
Dresden -> Studies -> Re-Registration (current fee, but in German only)
Scholarships
You can find gerneral information about scholarships on the webpage of the International Office of the TU Dresden or
