Master of Science in
Communications and Signal Processing
International Graduate Program at TU Ilmenau
started in 2009
all lectures, tutorials, and research tasks are in English
sponsored by the German government (currently no tuition fees)
successful 2-year program (4 semesters) since 2009
strong focus on cutting-edge research
• research projects (2-nd and 3-rd semesters)
• Master thesis (4-th semester)
• students are encouraged to
– report their work at leading international conferences and
– publish in highest impact journals.
Excellent preparation for
leading doctoral programs

Focus of the MSCSP Program
Communications
including physical layer concepts, protocols, and applications
Signal processing (the science behind our digital life)
branch of electrical engineering
that pulls meaning from the broad sources of data all around us
is at the heart of our modern world
Fundamental concepts, e.g.,
information theory, coding, modulation, (convex) optimization techniques,
compressed sensing, tensor-based signal processing, machine learning,
parameter estimation, array signal processing, adaptive filters
Many applications that lead to rewarding career opportunities, e.g.,
future wireless systems, channel modeling, antenna design, connected /
autonomous vehicles, radar / sonar, wearable technologies, audio coding,
hearing aids, multimedia systems, modern entertainment, biomedical signal
processing, brain / computer interfaces, better and safer medical scans, biometric
security, big data, stock valuation and prediction

Preparing for a Global Career in
Communications and Signal Processing
TU Ilmenau
strives to maintain its international reputation for quality in teaching and research and
to provide students with an excellent education.
The international students at our university are among the best in the areas of
communications and signal processing.
As an MSCSP student at TU Ilmenau, you have many options.
We not only offer a top-notch disciplinary education,
but also promote community-building activities beyond everyday student life.
Our MSCSP alumni
their capabilities and careers
• important indication of the quality of the MSCSP program
form an important part of our international network
act as world-wide ambassadors of the MSCSP program
• potential international research and project partners
• help to recruit capable applicants (e.g., in their home countries)

Preparing for a Global Career in
Communications and Signal Processing
Past year, our annual day of Information Technology on
Friday, June 23, 2017,
is dedicated to our Master of Science in Communications and Signal
Processing (MSCSP) students and alumni.
It includes presentations by selected international MSCSP alumni and
current students.

Preparing for a Global Career in
Communications and Signal Processing
Suggested presentation topics for our MSCSP alumni and students
personal and professional background in their home country
undergraduate studies (e.g., where and what did they study)
reasons for choosing the MSCSP program at TU Ilmenau
experience during the MSCSP program at TU Ilmenau
(from a personal and professional point of view)
• This gives them an opportunity to point out the main differences to their
home country and to summarize their research results
(technical part of the presentation)
personal and professional activities after their graduation
(e.g., where do they work now and what is their job there)
• Also in this part of the talk, they should share some of their most recent
research results (technical part of the presentation)
