Master's Programme in Embedded Systems

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: TIS2M

Many devices applied routinely in our daily life, for instance, cell phones, washing machines, cars, or aeroplanes, are controlled by embedded computers. Devices may contain hundreds of microprocessors and millions of lines of program code, all of which are essential for the correct functioning of a system. Embedded computer systems are a decisive factor for industries and societies. The development of embedded systems requires sophisticated technical skills within disciplines such as computer science, electronics, and mathematics. A Master's degree in Embedded Systems at Uppsala University provides candidates with a world-class education in computer science and systems engineering, with a focus on the design, implementation, and analysis of embedded systems software. The programme covers both theoretical and practical aspects of embedded systems and conveys skills and knowledge that are highly relevant to the national and international labour market. Courses include traditional and project-oriented training, covering a wide range of topics relevant to embedded systems. Uppsala University is a leading research institute in embedded systems. The programme is conducted as a close collaboration between major research centres, which among others study multi-core computers and parallel systems, wireless sensor networks, and the Internet of Things. Education is integrated with ongoing research, and courses are taught by internationally renowned scientists. The language of instruction is English.
