Prerequisites

A completed Bachelor’s degree* worth 180 ECTS credits or equivalent in engineering (in topics like mechanics, chemistry, electricity, electronics or energy) or in engineering physics, which refers to the study of the combined disciplines of physics and mathematics, together with studies in engineering disciplines.

Applicants holding a bachelor degree in electricity and / or electronics must also demonstrate good foundation in material science and in thermal science (the combined study of thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics). Applicants who lack this background cannot be accepted to pursue year 1 at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. They are adviced to apply to Instituto Superior Tecnico (IST) as year 1 institution, where they can follow harmonization courses to fulfill the gap in this knowledge area. This will allow them to proceed to year 2 at any of the other partner universities.

Applicants with a bachelor’s degree in chemistry, chemical engineering or mechanical engineering must also demonstrate a good foundation in circuit theory, electrical machines and electronic fundamentals. Applicants who lack this background cannot be accepted to pursue year 1 at UPC Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya. They are adviced to apply to Instituto Superior Tecnico (IST) as year 1 institution, where they can follow harmonization courses to fulfill the gap in this knowledge area. This will allow them to proceed to year 2 at any of the other partner universities.

Applicants with a Bachelor’s degree in another topic that covers the fundamentals of mathematics, physics, chemistry, material sciences, thermal sciences and electrical engineering, will be considered on a case-by-case basis by the MSc RENE Steering Committee.
