MSc Systems Engineering for the Internet of Things

Prepare for a career as an innovator who can combine the technical and entrepreneurial aspects of sensor systems to help solve real-world problems. This programme brings electronics, programming and the Internet of Things (IoT) together with entrepreneurship and the skills needed to identify real needs in the physical environment. You will gain hands-on experience of everything from idea generation to prototyping and deployment. This programme harnesses the power of academic expertise in Systems Engineering for the Internet of Things and brings it together with perspectives from industry experts and real-world customers.

First-hand experience is central to this degree, and you will undertake multiple projects throughout the programme, putting technical skills into practice from the start. You will also get to grips with topics such as laws, regulations and limitations, customer needs and implications for society, providing you with an understanding of the wider context to innovations in sensor systems.
