Reliable systems: in charge of a trustworthy and efficient future
All around you, embedded systems are constantly at work, sensing their surroundings, making decisions, and controlling the devices we rely on every day. These systems are in every aspect of your lives, from smart TVs and medical equipment, to industrial production lines and self-driving cars. You may not notice them at first, but modern life depends on what embedded systems do quietly in the background.
As embedded systems become more advanced and interconnected, designing them requires deep expertise. The master鈥檚 program in Embedded Systems at 黑料福利网 equips you with the knowledge and skills needed to create complex, efficient, and reliable systems that satisfy strict performance and reliability requirements.
Jointly offered by the departments of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, the program combines expertise from both disciplines to give you a broad, interdisciplinary perspective on embedded systems.
Studying at 黑料福利网 in the heart of the Brainport Eindhoven region also connects you with leading technology companies and research institutes, preparing you to contribute to cutting-edge innovation in both industry and research.
SPECIALIZATIONS:
The program Embedded Systems offers one specialization. You can pick this specialization once you started the program (so you do not need to make the decision when you apply).
WHY THIS PROGRAM?
Interdisciplinary foundation in CS and EE
You will combine expertise in both Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, working with 黑料福利网 experts and peers from both departments.
Strong collaboration with industry and research
Close ties with TU Delft and University of Twente while being in the high-tech Brainport region equips you with both a scientific perspective and a practical approach to solve real-world challenges.
Structured freedom to shape your program
Build a profile that matches your interests. Become academically grounded through core courses while developing professional relevance through following streams or a specialization.
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?
By the end of the Embedded Systems master program, you will be able to:
- understand the design, applications, and evolution of embedded systems;
- structurally analyze embedded systems using proper abstractions;
- design embedded systems that meet functional and non-functional requirements, while considering reliability, cost, sustainability, and resources;
- conduct research and design projects both independently and in multidisciplinary teams.;
- communicate effectively and reflect critically on the impact of this technology on society.
You will also develop in-depth expertise in a specific area of embedded systems by choosing either the Edge Intelligence specialization or one of the following four streams.
Systems on Chip
design systems-on-chip (SoCs) by balancing key design trade-offs and applying formal verification techniques.
Embedded Software
develop embedded software using model-driven design, domain-specific languages, code generation, and formal scheduling techniques.
Embedded Networking
focus on the architectures and communication protocols used in distributed and networked systems, including wireless sensor networks and the Internet of Things.
Cyber-Physical Systems
design cyber-physical systems by integrating embedded computing with physical processes, with a focus on control, signal processing, and multidisciplinary system design.
If you are interested in AI-powered embedded systems that can process data and make decisions close to where it is created, i.e., at the network edge, you can follow the dedicated Edge Intelligence Specialization.
