Electrical & Electronics Engineering is as diverse and multifaceted as the modern way of life, underlying numerous innovations that make our lifestyle possible. Communication systems, optical fibers, renewable energy, advanced medical devices and algorithms, autonomous vehicles, robots, smartphones, and even present-day art – none of these (and many more inventions) could not even be imagined without the amazing knowhow and ingenuity of electrical and electronic engineers.

M.Sc. in Electrical & Electronics Engineering

The M.Sc. in Electronics & Electrical Engineering targets engineers with a BSc and covers 5 fields from the forefront of technology:

  • Power systems & renewable energy
  • Bioengineering – medical systems
  • Electro-optics
  • Communication engineering
  • Micro/nanoelectronics

The program is offered in three different formats:

M.Sc. without a thesis – equipping qualified engineers with the latest tools and knowledge in the field.

M.Sc. with a thesis – enabling students to conduct innovative studies in state-of-the-art laboratories, with a focus on applied research and often in collaboration with leading technological corporations.

Direct Track – allowing outstanding undergraduates to begin research for an M.Sc. thesis in their 4th year and complete both degrees in 5 years.

Students & Alumni

Most students in the M.Sc. track already work as electrical & electronics engineers in various companies or startups. With an M.Sc. in hand, they can rise to prominent positions in the hi-tech industry. Graduates of the M.Sc. track with a thesis can also choose to pursue a PhD in academia.

Opportunity for All

The program offers a flexible timetable for working students, including evening classes and online lessons. Students in the M.Sc. with a thesis track, strongly encouraged by HIT, enjoy tuition waivers.

Faculty

Faculty members in the M.Sc. program are young, dynamic, and highly motivated. While conducting advanced research, they also devote a great deal of time and energy to guiding and teaching their students.

Research

The Electrical & Electronics Engineering Department is a highly research-oriented ecosystem, with an impressive scientific output. Both faculty members and research students publish papers in leading journals and present their work at prestigious conferences, making significant breakthroughs in their respective fields.
