Enrolment into postgraduate study programmes

Postgraduate study is not only for excellent students – it is an excellent choice for engineers inclined to academic research. However serious it may be, this study programme serves committed individuals and is not the standard study programme you had already finished. You can gain access to the support and assistance necessary to accomplish your goals. Find out more about enrolment into the final stage of academic education.
