Overview

In the System Test Engineering study track at the FH Joanneum University of Applied Sciences of the ‘Electronic Engineering’ degree programme, you will learn all about test strategies, software development for automated testing, data analysis and machine learning for a successful future career. Our graduates are responsible for quality-assured development of high-tech products in the electronics and automotive industries.

Key subject areas

AI. Machine learning and data analysis.

You will deepen your understanding of statistical methods and data analysis in order to develop data-driven solutions for a variety of applications. You will learn to understand and apply advanced machine learning techniques and algorithms to extract patterns and insights from large datasets.

Innovative. Automated testing.

You will gain in-depth knowledge of specific software tools and programming languages so that you can develop and apply automated tests for high-tech products. These skills will allow you to improve quality assurance in the high-tech industry and help bring innovative products to market faster.

Reliable. Automotive testing.

Intensive testing of electronic systems in the automotive industry is crucial to guarantee vehicle safety. You will learn to understand electronic assistance systems such as emergency braking systems, lane departure warning systems and autonomous driving systems, and to develop test systems to ensure their reliability.

High-tech. Chip manufacturing.

In high-tech chip manufacturing, efficient testing processes are essential for reliably producing high-quality integrated circuits. Students learn how to develop and apply efficient test procedures for the chip industry, and how to integrate appropriate test structures on the chip. Special laboratories equipped with chip testers are available for this purpose.
