MASTER IN TELECOMMUNICATIONS ENGINEERING MASTER IN INTERNET OF THINGS: APPLIED TECHNOLOGIES The UC3M offers you the possibility of jointly studying the Master in Telecommunications Engineering, along with the Master in Internet of Things: Applied Technologies. The former allows you to acquire the training to practice as a Telecommunications Engineer. This study option means you will obtain a high level of specialization and research training that will put you in prime position regarding employment and / or access to Ph.D. studies.
VERSIONS
Two versions of the Master in Telecommunications Engineering are offered: a bilingual version taught on the Madrid-Puerta de Toledo Campus and a Spanish version taught on the Leganés Campus.
Students may select whichever one of the two versions they wish to follow during the admissions process. This choice only affects the first course.
The Master in Cybersecurity is bilingual and is taught in Madrid-Puerta de Toledo Campus.
Master in Telecommunications Engineering
The Master in Telecommunications Engineering is a professional Master to replace the Telecommunications Engineering undergraduate degree and enables you to practice as a Telecommunications Engineer, under the provisions of Order CIN / 355/2009 of 9th February.
The Spanish Association of Engineers requires professionals, from companies in the telecommunications field (major manufacturers of telecommunications equipment or telephone service providers) and from other companies, institutions or organizations that need qualified personnel to design and maintain their own telecommunications systems.
The overall aim of the Master in Telecommunications Engineering is to train professionals who are competent to practice as Telecommunications Engineers. The Master is geared towards advanced training and enhancing employability
Master in Internet of Things: Applied Technologies
Internet de las cosas (IoT de sus siglas en inglés) supone una revolución en las relaciones entre los objetos y las personas, incluso entre los objetos directamente, que se conectarán entre ellos y con la red y ofrecerán datos en tiempo real al usuario. Internet de las cosas plantea la digitalización del mundo físico.
El objetivo del Máster en Internet de las Cosas: Tecnologías Aplicadas consiste en que el alumno adquiera los conocimientos necesarios para el diseño, desarrollo, interconexión, programación, etc. de cualquier producto con cualquier otro de su alrededor. El objetivo de la IoT es hacer que todos los dispositivos se comuniquen entre sí y, por consiguiente, sean más inteligentes y autónomos. Para ello, es necesario el empleo de numerosas tecnologías que actualmente están siendo diseñadas por las principales compañías del sector.
IoT ha evolucionado desde la convergencia de las tecnologías inalámbricas, pasando por los sistemas micro-electromecánicos, para alcanzar los micro-servicios e internet. Estos avances han ayudado a eliminar las fronteras existentes entre la tecnología operativa y la tecnología de la información, permitiendo que los datos no estructurados generados por máquinas sean analizados para obtener información que impulse mejoras.
