Embedded Systems MSc, 120 cr, 2 years

Embedded Systems is the most common form of computer systems, i.e. those that are built into machines, devices and power and manufacturing plants, and are consequently often not perceived as a computer system.

The purpose of this Master's programme is to provide a broad education within Embedded Systems with the opportunity to specialize within the areas (Embedded Platforms, Embedded Software and Embedded Control) that cover theoretical as well as practical aspects of the development of products based on Embedded Systems. Special emphasis is placed on engineering skills, integration of software and hardware, system design, integration and verification and the management of the design process.
