MSc project
You’ll complete a substantial MSc project, which is often practical as well as theoretical. You may have opportunities to work with an industrial partner.
Some of our previous students’ project work has led to journal and conference publication, giving them a head start in their careers.
The project allows you to develop your skills as an engineer and will involve:
an in-depth study of an advanced topic in mobile communications and intelligent embedded systems
further development of your critical awareness, creative thinking and project planning skills
enhancing your ability to describe complex technical issues clearly and concisely
developing your presentation skills to effectively communicate your work and ideas to senior colleagues within an organisation.
As a graduate, you’ll have the skills for a career in areas such as:
mobile and satellite telecommunications (where large industry players include Samsung, Vodafone, Ericsson, Huawei, Nokia, Cobham, British Telecom, Telefonica)
aerospace (where large industry players include Airbus, Rolls-Royce and GE)
automotive and transport (where large industry players include Jaguar, BMW, Continental, Network rail)
defence and security (where large industry players include BAE Systems, QinetiQ and Thales)
healthcare (where large industry players include Siemens and GE).
The MSc is also an ideal entry point for doctoral research in the fields of telecommunications and embedded systems.
