Location of The University of Edinburgh

This programme has been designed with substantial input from both industry and the four university partners. It is recognised as the world´s first postgraduate qualification aimed specifically at the needs of system level integration and system-on-chip technology.

The course concentrates on understanding the process of SoC design, the use of IP blocks and the architecture of modern electronic systems. The curriculum provides an opportunity to acquire advanced skills in hardware engineering, embedded software and systems architecture, leading to a highly marketable qualification in electronic systems design.

At the end of the programme, it is expected that students will be able to adapt quickly into the commercial chip design environment as they will have understanding of both the underlying principles and the computer-aided design tools used in this level of electronic design integration.


Contents

You will be taught on campus and by distance learning; the curriculum is organised such that compulsory modules develop the core competencies relating to microchip engineering and the integration of hardware and software systems at the semiconductor level. Various optional modules allow the student to diversify into several application areas.
