  • Objectives
    The processing of data and signals digitally together with the communication of such information over fixed and wireless links is of major importance in many aspects of modern engineering. This course aims to develop a good understanding of digital signal processing, radio systems and digital communications together with topics covering real time implementation of the signal processing techniques. The theoretical aspects of the course will be reinforced with extensive “hands-on” exercises to further develop understanding.
  • Entry requirements
    A first or good second class honours degree in a relevant subject or a qualification recognised by the University as equivalent.
  • Academic title
    MSc/Postgraduate Diploma/Postgraduate Certificate in Information and Communications Engineering
