The programme combines physics and electronics engineering. It is application-oriented and provides knowledge in the fields of remote sensing, earth observation, retrieval theory, electronics and communications. Lectures on measurement techniques impart advanced skills and methods in sensing and processing. Methods of data transmission in communication networks complete the range in the field of communications.
The structure of the programme is modular and comprises mandatory core modules, specialisation subjects, elective modules and practical courses. In the first academic year (semesters one and two), students read about the foundations and choose one out of two specialisation subjects (either Physics for Space Observation or Information Technologies for Space). In the second academic year (semesters three and four), the study of the specialisation subject continues and research starts, culminating in the Master's thesis.
PDF DownloadLab work (internship) is integrated into the programme.
The semester contribution is around 380 EUR and is due every semester. It includes the costs for a semester-long public transport ticket for Bremen and the region.
Germany is not particularly expensive compared to other European countries. On average, international students have to spend around 950 to 1,000 EUR per month. This sum comprises the expenses for rent, travel expenses, expenditures for food, clothing, learning materials, health insurance, telephone, Internet, radio and TV licence fees, and recreational activities.
The University of Bremen takes part in the government's programme "Deutschlandstipendium". Upon successful application, excellent students are granted a scholarship of 300 EUR per month for the duration of one year.
Academic admission requirements include a first academic degree (equivalent to the Bachelor's degree) in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Systems Engineering, Industrial Mathematics, Electrical Engineering with Management or a course of studies which does not reveal any significant differences in the content, scope and requirements of those mentioned above, with at least 180 credit points (CP) according to the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS), thereof 90 CP in physics or 65 CP in electrical engineering and 16 CP in mathematics courses.

On and near campus, there are single flats and shared flats for up to eight people, provided by the Student Service Office (in German: "Studierendenwerk"). The rent per person for these rooms ranges from 200 EUR to 400 EUR.
See http://www.stw-bremen.de/ for application and further information.
However, managing to get a room in one of the shared flats can be hard, and the waiting lists for single apartments are long.
Most students do not live in these residences. Instead, they usually find a room or flat on the private market. The price range is higher there.
The Study Centre at Department 1 provides counselling services and help in programme-related questions and beyond.
