Depending on your educational background or depending on the focus, it is possible that the prerequisites / corequisites for the 1st year of the programme are presented in the block 2. You are therefore invited to read through the list of courses in block 2 even if you are registering for the first time in this master.
As part of the Master in electro-mechanical engineering, students must follow or approve 65 core training credits (including placement and final dissertation), 25 credits of optional courses and 30 credits from one of the two professional focuses.

Ideally, students taking the Masters will have acquired the skills and knowledge corresponding to 50 credits for the specific technical classes in the field of "mechanics" and "electricity" organised as part of the Bachelor in civil engineering.
