About the programme
It is virtually impossible to imagine a society without TV, radio, Internet, and mobile communication.
Communication Technologies and System Design is not only central to addressing tasks of importance to society, such as telemedicine, banking, train signalling systems, and monitoring, but people are also highly dependent on smartphones, social media, on-demand video streaming etc. Communication Technologies and System Design – the technology that forms the basis of modern society – relies on engineers capable of maintaining existing systems and developing and designing new ones.
Study programme focus
The MSc in Communication Technologies and System Designs programme at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) covers areas ranging from advanced component and system design through complex network structures to the development of services and ICT solutions that meet user expectations. The programme courses include three central, traditional disciplines which, to some extent, share a common technical-scientific basis. These are:
- Component and software design
- System development and methods
- Applications
Specializations
The Communication Technologies and System Designs programme allows you to specialize in one of the four study lines:
- High-speed Communication
- Mobile/Wireless Communication and Internet of Things
- Communication Software and Cyber Security
- Signal Processing, Coding and Visual Communication
- Enabling Technologies for Communication System Design
Career Opportunities
Telecommunication graduates typically find employment in the part of the electronics industry producing transmission and measuring equipment for communication purposes—including especially mobile and optical communication—or in the traditional telecom sector with, for instance, telecom or mobile operators.
Furthermore, an increasing number of graduates find employment in the emerging ‘convergence industry’ consisting of providers of new information and communication services—including television operators—and in companies with an extensive use of traditional telecommunication or the new services mentioned above.
Examples of companies in which our graduates are employed:
- GlobalConnect
- NapaTech
- Vitesse Semiconductor
- Sigma Designs
