Communication Systems Master's Program

  Sweden

Linkoping

Description: The Communication Systems master's programme offers a broad curriculum in communications systems focusing on the fundamental principles of systems engineering and the design of digital and wireless communications systems.

The Communication Systems programme offers a range of courses with a solid theoretical nucleus in communication systems engineering. Topics covered include: communication theory, coding, modulation, signal processing, and design and optimization of communication systems and networks.

The first year comprises a set of compulsory courses in communication systems engineering, for example: digital communications, wireless systems, information networks, and image and audio coding. The second year consists of elective courses from the general area of electrical and computer engineering, mathematics and physics, and ends with a degree project. In addition, the second year includes a compulsory project course that teaches the students project management skills and gives them the opportunity to apply their knowledge in practice in a team environment.

The programme is given in close association with the industry and students will have access both to an extensive network of industry contacts and opportunities to complete their degree project work in cooperation with local Swedish high-tech companies in and around Linkoping.

The programme prepares the students for a continued career as engineers working in the telecommunications industry or as Ph.D. students. It is coordinated by the Communication Systems division at LiU and students will have access to a world-class research infrastructure. Current projects at the division focus on the design and optimization of wireless communications networks, and signal processing for communications.
