About

The programme offers advanced training from the nanoscale fabrication of devices and materials, including advanced sensoric and machine-learning components, up to macroscale intelligent systems and IoT interconnected devices in the information, sensing, and energy application areas.

Overview

The European Master on Embedded Intelligence Nanosystems Engineering (EMINENT) at University of Siegen joins excellent research and innovation oriented educational expertise across Europe, extending in this case from Portugal in the West to Lithuania in the East. This approach is absolutely unique on the European level and thereby provides unique benefits and opportunities for the students enrolled in the programme:

  • Broad technological and educational expertise, and the research and innovation infrastructure, typically unavailable at a singular institution
  • In depth curriculum on embedded intelligence nanosystems engineering complimented by topical specialisation tracks and digital, entrepreneurial and soft skills
  • Training across existing disciplinary barriers
  • Collaborative education in close contact with associated industrial partners and their networks in the employment market
  • Learning beyond cultural barriers, enabling easier moving between countries
  • Integrated and coordinated enhanced mobility plan
  • Joint degree awarded by the participating academic institutions
  • Consideration of all admitted students for the award of a scholarship
  • Student support service: enrolment advisors, visa support, welcome days, mentoring system, alumni club, career service, disability support, etc.

EMINENT is a two-years master degree programme. Students will spend their studies at 2 – 4 different universities. All courses are given in English language. Graduates from the EMINENT programme will receive a joint degree, awarded by those universities they have physically studied at for at least one semester. All students spend their first semester at the Hellenic Mediterranean University and gain basic knowledge on functional nanomaterials. The second semester will be spent by all students at the University of Siegen, focussing on sensors, sensing devices and embedded systems.  The knowledge acquired in the first year will be the basis for the specialisation tracks, chosen in the third semester.
