We live in the information age, where communications and information processing are at the very heart of society. Intelligent transportation systems, smart cities, remote healthcare, and cloud services: all of these technologies rely on our ability to accurately and reliably share, store, and process massive amounts of data. This master’s programme will train you to imagine, design, and build the digital systems of an interconnected future, preparing for a career in a rapidly growing and constantly evolving field.
Information and communication technology master's programme at Chalmers
Emerging technologies such as intelligent transportation systems, smart cities, traffic safety, positioning, sensing and navigation, eHealth, Industry 4.0, and cloud services all rely on our ability to store, share and process massive amounts of data. In a fast growing and rapidly evolving field, you will gain the skills to imagine, design, and build the systems of the future to enable the interconnected world.
We are also witnessing an explosion of information services and applications, in both volume and variety. These services include augmented reality, next-generation wireless systems, internet of things, cyber-security, and artificial intelligence. Providing these services on a wide scale requires the ability to handle these massive amounts of data. Therefore, there is a tremendous need for know-how to tackle this data flooding and the accompanying challenges.
In Information and communication technology, you will get ready for an advanced engineering career in the fields of communication and information science. You will acquire deep theoretical and applied knowledge, the competence to conduct complex multidisciplinary projects, and a passion for discovery.
The core courses of the programme will give you solid analytical skills and an understanding of the fundamental principles of communication and information processing: probability theory and statistical learning, digital signal processing, information and communication theory, communication networking, and security. The master’s programme offers three main tracks for specialisation with a generous number of elective courses to choose from.
The educational methods in this programme have a specific emphasis on building and refining problem-solving skills, teamwork, and presentation skills. You will also get the opportunity to interact with leading industries in the information and communication technology field via guest lectures, study visits, and exciting master thesis opportunities. As a graduate student of this programme, you will contribute to the development of the transformative and disruptive digital technologies that are needed to enable an increasingly more interconnected world.
