_{1 EC = 28 hrs study, according to the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) • Total amount of credits MSc system and control engineering programme = 120 EC}

The programme ends with a master thesis project on topics such as "Large perturbation recovery for bipedal robots", "Anticipative control of traffic networks" and "Sensorfusion for Scanning Probe Microscopy".

Final thesis project market
Every year a final thesis market is organized for students who will start their final thesis project at DCSC in the near future. The idea of the meeting is that staff members, PhD students and other researchers will tell about their research and possible thesis projects, and students will be able to ask questions.

Typically the final thesis market will be oragnized at the end of the first quarter. More information will be send to the students by email.

A largely identical core programme can be followed at each of the three locations. Students benefit from the specific strengths of all the three universities by choosing a specialization at any of the three. The admission procedures, teaching and examination regulations and academic calendars at all three universities have been carefully matched. Students are registered at the location of their choice, but they are automatically co-registered at the other two locations to ensure access to the facilities of all three.
