Course content
The MRes in Connected Electronic and Photonic Systems is taught at the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training, a joint centre with UCL and the University of Cambridge. Students study at both universities and benefit from the combined strengths and academic excellence of two institutions. The MRes degree is awarded by the university at which the student is registered. This degree was formerly known as MRes in Integrated Photonic and Electronic Systems.
UCL and the University of Cambridge have established an exciting Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Connected Electronic and Photonic Systems (CEPS), leveraging their current strong collaborations in research and innovation. Both UCL and University of Cambridge are amongst the world’s leading research universities and boast high levels of academic excellence. The combined strengths of the two institutions provides a training environment in connected electronic and photonic systems that is hard to beat, worldwide.
The CDT provides doctoral training using expertise drawn from a range of disciplines, and collaborates closely with a wide range of UK industries, using innovative teaching and learning techniques.
The centre aims to create graduates with the skills, confidence and ability to drive future technology research, development and exploitation, as photonics becomes fully embedded in electronics-based systems and applications ranging from communications to sensing, industrial manufacture and biomedicine.
