This course is ideal if you want to acquire the knowledge and skills needed to help conceive, design, implement and deploy dedicated embedded systems. You will have the opportunity to gain a sound understanding of key aspects of this exciting field, such as digital signal processing/processors, control systems, mechatronics, networks, digital media and much more.
By the end of the course, you will have developed the technical skills and professional attitudes needed to progress your career in this rapidly evolving and key technical sector.
What will you study?
You will develop a disciplined engineering approach to and sound practical skills in the specification, design and implementation of software for embedded systems. You will gain specialist knowledge in digital signal processing and processors, control systems, mechatronics and automation and research methods.
You can then choose from a wide range of optional modules encompassing computing, engineering and digital media processing. It may also be possible for you to undertake a 'real-world' project in an industrial placement or work alongside the Faculty's research teams (eg in digital imaging, industrial control, aerospace, wireless mutimedia and/or networking).
