Smart Systems Engineering MSc

This course develops your technical knowledge and skills in designing digital (smart) systems enabling you to work across a range of disciplines. Many of the most influential projects and products today are not solely mechanical, physical, electrical or electronic. They are driven by networked computing devices and software to create smart systems that improve resilience, efficiency and value. Examples range from hybrid vehicles to self-healing power grids. The MSc is suitable for graduates in computing disciplines with an interest in resilient, networked, distributed, mobile and smart systems, embedded computing and control; computing professionals wanting to upgrade their existing skills; engineering graduates from any discipline with an interest in urban engineering (infrastructure or planning); professional engineers in firms and organisations who have established smart cities groups; graduates from other numerate disciplines. The Smart Systems Engineering MSc has four main elements and is taught by leading academics and practitioners from industry and government: Systems and urban engineering, Advanced computing or engineering skills, Multidisciplinary systems engineering in practice, Individual research project.
