Software plays a dominant role in most areas of embedded systems (for example, in the automotive sector). Businesses are faced with the challenge of tasking experienced engineers with software engineering more and more frequently.

The distance learning programme is aimed at professionals in the field of software development and provides the participants with well-​founded theoretical knowledge and the ability to acquire according practical methods, techniques and tools in the field of software engineering.

Examples of topics the modules focus on include:

• project management
• software quality assurance
• software product line engineering
• requirements engineering
• software architecture for embedded software systems
• component-based software development
• model-based component engineering
• real-time systems and dependability engineering (compulsory elective module)
• machine learning (compulsory elective module)

The programme is offered in cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering (IESE).

The distance learning programme starts in the winter semester (October) of every year. The application phase usually opens in mid-May of the respective year. For information on the admission requirements and the application process, please visit our website.

The teaching and learning format consists of comprehensive, scientifically sound and practice-oriented self-study materials that have been developed by experts especially for distance learning, an online campus as an interactive learning platform, and on-campus phases to consolidate the knowledge that is acquired through self-study in theory and practice. Mandatory on-​campus phases take place once per semester at IESE in Kaiserslautern. In general, there is a three-​day on-​campus phase from Friday to Sunday during the first semester and a one-​week on-​campus phase (from Saturday to Friday) each during the second and third semesters.
