Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (Electronic Circuits and Systems)
Masters of Electrical Engineering are capable of developing complex electronic (communications) systems for a broad field of applications efficiently and methodically, starting from the conception and analysis over the design, implementation, testing, and up to the management of such systems.
EUR-ACE® Master (EURopean ACcredited Engineering Master)
The EUR-ACE label was accredited to this programme by the Commission des titres d’ingénieur (CTI), under the auspices of the European Network for Accreditation of Engineering Education (ENAEE).
EUR-ACE® is a framework and accreditation system that provides a set of standards that identifies high-quality engineering degree programmes in Europe and abroad.
Open Days
Each spring there is a Graduation Fair. It consists of a job fair (with more than 200 different companies) and a postgrad/master fair.
For some programmes, there is a specific Open Day. If this is the case, you will find the date here (at the latest Feb 15th).

Additional Information on Admission (Flemish Degree)
Students who have obtained a Flemish academic bachelor's degree in a closely related field of study (as listed above) can submit a request for exemptions in the Bachelor of Science in de ingenieurswetenschappen: elektrotechniek which gives immediate admission to the master’s programme. More information: studietrajectIR.ea@ugent.be.
Admission for Students holding a Non-Flemish Degree
Students who wish to enrol for the Master of Science in Electrical Engineering can enter the programme without any prerequisites if they hold the following diploma: an academic diploma of Bachelor (or Master) of Science in Engineering (university level, minimum of three years), with the main subject in Electrical Engineering or an equivalent to this.
Admission can only be granted after an individual application procedure. The Study Programme Committee will make the final decision whether to accept the application or not. The Study Programme Committee can decide that students need to follow a preparatory course or an individual master’s programme, for instance for students with another diploma of Bachelor or Master.
Important: Students who wish to enrol must add the result of a GRE test to their application, more specifically the result of the Quantitative Reasoning of the General Test. The GRE test result will be assessed using the faculty’s grading scale.
Information on admission requirements and the administrative procedure for admission on the basis of a diploma obtained abroad, can be found on the following page: www.ugent.be/prospect/en/administration/enrolment-or-registration.

Flexible trajectories
Flexible trajectories refers to alternative ways of following our courses. It might mean that a course can be spread in time as to allow the combination of work and studying, or that students with special needs get the support they need to allow a successful study career.
An international experience
Going abroad with Erasmus is wide-spread and well-known. But getting an international experience is possible in many different ways.
