Is fachhochschule the equivalent of graduate school, more along the lines of a Master's degree or is University just 2 years there and then the next 2 are fachhochschule? 

It sounds like a similar curriculum from the standpoint of theory, but the way it was structured here was adding the practical aspect of coding the algorithms, programs, principles, and even maths with differential equations. Every bit of theory was related back to coding, except in physics/calc and the general university required courses.

I hated MIPS, I hated assembly. That low level stuff never seemed interesting to me. One thing I regret is not taking the lab for digital logic to play with the FPGAs and such. I imagine it would have been very beneficial to seeing more than just the theory, seeing the adders and MUXs and all that.

You didn't miss much, all you see is a bunch of lights light up to tell you your output.  The x86 assembly however, that was fun.

So yiu have no idea what FPGAs can do. Thanks for telling us.

Nope XD.  I just remember what our final lab was and it was to program an eprom.  We had them hooked up the the boards and the only way we knew what was programmed right was a light indicator to let us know our bits were right.  We had to draw up a lot of designs for boolean circuits though.  But that was for the other portion of the class.
