Course content

On this programme we build your foundational knowledge through our core topics which include embedded computer systems, digital system design, IC design, microprocessor systems, the Internet of Things and research skills and project management.

We also cover digital design techniques, you will be introduced to materials used in microelectronics, and develop an understanding of designing advanced embedded computer systems – along with a module that will help you to develop the practical skills to develop your final project in semester three.

You’ll be able to develop your specialism through optional modules, where you can learn the fundamentals of image processing, the principles of communications networks, the theoretical and practical aspects of parallel programming for multi-core architectures, and an introduction to electrical plasma and how it can be used in microelectronics.

Part-time study is in cooperation with the students’ employers. Please contact the Programme Director before applying.

Please note: We constantly review and develop our postgraduate programmes. This MSc is also available with the alternative title Microelectronic Systems MSc for entry September 2025, and gives students the option to graduate with either of these two MSc titles.
