MSc Course in
Microelectronics Systems Design

Full-time and Part-time

The current revolution in "information Technology" is founded on the ability
to process digital signals at low cost and high speed in small and highly
reliable electronic systems. Indeed, the "enabling technology" of this second
"industrial revolution" is the rapidly expanding field of micro-electronics.

Already, complex custom-designed and semi-custom VLSI micro-circuits are being
applied to sophisticated computer, communications, robotics, signal and image
processing and knowledge-based systems. In fact, micro-electronics systems
design is now providing the innovation from which major manufacturing
industries are developing.

The Microelectronics Systems Design full-time course at Brunel University
offers recent electrical and electronic engineering, mathematics, computer
science and physics graduates the opportunity to embark on exciting careers in
"information engineering". Moreover, part-time attendance of the course offers
practising engineers the opportunity to improve skills and enhance career
prospects in this field.

Students participate in lectures, seminars, CAD-laboratory exercises and
industrially-relevant VLSI chip design assignments before undertaking a major
project in one of the active research groups at Brunel University, in industry
or at the University of Southampton.

SERC and MSC grants and industrial sponsorships are available for the course.
