Program details

Overview

Embedded systems are the building blocks of many modern systems such as medical devices, automobiles, industrial machinery, and GPS systems. Even your car’s antilock braking system (ABS) is an embedded system. The design of such systems is crucial for their functionality. In this Master’s, you will learn to tackle the increasing complexity of modern embedded systems by integrating hardware and software from the early stages of the design process.

You will gain the necessary engineering skills and knowledge in embedded artificial intelligence, real-time operating systems, digital hardware design, computer architecture, embedded software development, sensor integration and chip technology. After completing this Master’s, you can look forward to excellent career prospects, as you will be able to design embedded systems that meet the desired performance requirements, such as time latency, power consumption, reliability, and cost efficiency for various applications.
