International Master's Program in Distributed Systems Engineering

The International Master's Program in Distributed Systems Engineering is a new 2-year program offered by the Faculty of Computer Science at the Technische Universität Dresden (Dresden University of Technology). It will prepare students for a future career in the very broad field of distributed systems and their applications. This field is characterized by continuously emerging technological advancements and a highly active research community. Students need to be aware of both the fundamentals of distributed systems and their practical application in realistic scenarios. Therefore, the programs structure ensures that students first acquire the necessary theoretical knowledge and expertise before they will get the opportunity to apply their skills in practice in the context of an internship, various practical courses and, if desired, even in their master's thesis.

The courses of the program are taught in English and all students are highly encouraged to spend at least one semester abroad, either at one of our partner universities or at another research or industrial institution of their choice.

The program starts every fall and the next possible starting date will be October 2024. The application deadline ends every year on May 31 or July 15.
