HTW Berlin – University of Applied Sciences
Berlin, GermanyPOTENTIAL — not yet offered / not confirmed
🟡 Thin for core electronics: English offer is mainly Master-level control plus an IT-Bachelor catalogue (software, security, AI, networks); the English Electrical Engineering Bachelor track is no longer listed
English-taught programme: HTW Berlin runs the HORIZON English-language tracks for exchange students. The current list (summer semester 2027 pages) has Electrical Engineering (Master), Information Technology (Bachelor and Master), Environmental Engineering and Sustainability (Bachelor), AEco (Bachelor) and International Business (Bachelor). The former English Electrical Engineering Bachelor track (electronics, control, plant engineering) now appears only in archived 2020-2023 pages, so analogue/digital electronics, signals and telecom courses cannot be verified for incoming students.
Potential matches only. This partner currently has no HMU Electronic Engineering students / no recognised courses. The matches below are an indicative assessment by the IRO, based on the partner’s published English programme vs the HMU Electronic Engineering study guide. They must be evaluated and approved by the departmental academic coordinator before any agreement is used.
