Introducing your degree
Wireless communications has played a key role in creating the world as we know it, with its enormous social impact. In the near-future, it is expected that everything will be connected and hence, there is a need for more wireless engineers with advanced skills to design the future wireless networks. These future wireless networks will have to support and intelligently manage a massive number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in real-time, within a highly dynamic environment.
This programme prepares you to become a capable wireless engineer with in-depth knowledge and understanding of the theoretical and practical applications, which involve generating, transmitting and processing signals as well as designing networks. You will gain advanced knowledge in areas such as transmission and coding, signal processing, transceiver design and network design.

Course programme
Year 1
The program consists of six compulsory modules spread across two semesters, each worth 7.5 ECTS credits and an individual project worth 30 ECTS credits. The compulsory modules cover fundamentals of theory and practice of wireless transceivers and mobile networks.
You can also choose from a range of optional topics, including advanced wireless communications and future wireless techniques that cover the potential technology proposed for the next-generation wireless network as well as advanced systems and signal processing and cryptography and Quantum technology. For the 2018/19 academic year we will also introduce two new modules: Project Preparation, and Machine Learning for Wireless Communications.
