Embedded Systems

The Master of Science in Embedded Systems focuses on the design methodology of embedded systems.

Embedded systems are combinations of hardware and software whose purpose is to control a device, a process or a larger system. Specific examples of embedded systems include: those controlling the ABS of a car or the operation of its engine; the automatic pilot of an aircraft; and the chipset and software within a set-top box for digital TV. The master degree course in Embedded Systems focuses on the design methodology of embedded systems in hardware and software, either fixed in capability or programmable that is specifically designed for a particular kind of application device. Students can specialize in a wide variety of topics ranging from control engineering, integrated circuit design, computer architecture, communication networks, real-time operating systems to software engineering and formal methods for embedded applications.
