Photonics studies - career springboard for engineers in the field of light and optics

Anyone interested in topics relating to light and optics will hit the nail on the head with the Bachelor's degree course in Optoelectronics and Photonics. Hardly any other course promises engineers such good career prospects. Because this field has a future. Photonics is the absolute state-of-the-art solution where the cyber environment meets the physical world of production. Laser technology uses software control to operate generic production processes that save resources and are very versatile. Non-contact measurement techniques enable flawless and rapid quality checks in the manufacturing process. This leads to optimum cooperation between humans and robotics.

Participants in the photonics degree program acquire sound know-how in the fields of optoelectronics, camera technology, image processing, infrared technology, display technology, lighting technology, illumination technology and laser technology. They train their optical skills and become specialists in the fields of product development and production technology. Of course, students also receive in-depth training in the areas of management and business administration.

Modules for photonics-specific specialization later on in the degree course enable students to specialize in their chosen field. Possible subject modules include image processing, optical metrology, sensor technology and systems, optoelectronics, infrared technology, lighting technology and many more. This allows students to lay the foundations for their future engineering career during their studies. Well-trained specialists in the field of photonics will find numerous job opportunities in this very promising field, as well as interesting further training opportunities in engineering, automation, robotics, measuring instrument technology and numerous other areas.
