- CURRICULUM
IMPORTANT
The Master in Advanced Communications Technologies was previously called Master in Multimedia and Communications.
STRUCTURE
The Double Master's Degree Curriculum is structured around two academic years in which you will take 78 ECTS from the Master's Degree in Telecommunications Engineering and 42 ECTS from the Master's Degree in Advanced Communications Technologies.
The 120 total credits from the dual curriculum is broken down as follows:
- In the first year, students take subjects for the Master's Degree in Telecommunications Engineering (30 ECTS in each semester).Each semester you will take five core subjects of 6 ECTS each.
- During the second year of teaching, you will take the specialty subjects in Advanced Communications Technologies, 1 final Telecommunications Engineering subject, and 2 Master's Theses.
You will have 30 validated ECTS credits, and on completion you receive two Official Master's Degree qualifications.
