Location of University of Birmingham
Embedded systems are central to the technological world in which we live and can be found in traction controllers, power generation and personal audio systems. These systems require high performance embedded electronics to support their operation and their design involves specialised hardware and software and system level integration.
You will learn about the theory and techniques that provide ever more sophisticated services; especially where aspects of digital electronics, communications engineering, computing and power systems meet. Graduates from this programme can expect to find employment in the electronics industry developing novel solutions to provide new services, reduce costs and ensure reliability.
You will be helped to understand how to interpret requirements and component specifications, to produce functionally effective and cost effective design solutions. You will be shown how to make decisions on the basis of incomplete information and to understand strategies for evaluating designs through a combination of group and individual exercises.
Contents
There is a wide range of topics from embedded systems, communications engineering, spoken language processing, image analysis and interpretation and advanced Interactive 3D environments for virtual realty and serious games,from which you may choose.
