Course content

The Master’s in Embedded Electronics Engineering focuses on the design of integrated circuits and systems, treating digital and analogue components as a unified whole. Centered around silicon-based semiconductor technologies like CMOS, the programme equips students with highly sought-after skills, especially relevant given global semiconductor demand and initiatives like the EU Chips Act.

Students gain expertise in areas such as RF circuits, data conversion, digital systems, and system-level applications. The programme also offers a wide range of electives—spanning programming, machine learning, signal processing, and nano devices—to connect circuit design with broader technologies.

Key features:

• Core focus on digital, analogue, and mixed-signal IC design

• Hands-on lab work with industry-standard tools (e.g., Cadence, Synopsys, AMD/Xilinx FPGA)

• Strong ties with top companies like Ericsson, ARM, and Sony

• Courses taught by world-renowned researchers

• Opportunities for patenting, publishing, and real-world projects

• Mandatory courses include topics such as VLSI design, analogue/digital IC design, and IPR

The programme is ideal for students seeking to contribute to key tech areas like IoT, 5G/6G, automated vehicles, and cloud computing, with excellent career prospects in high-tech industries.
