A Master of Science in Electronics and Communication Engineering is a postgraduate degree program that provides advanced knowledge in electronic and communication systems. The program is structured to give students both depth and specialization in areas such as digital communications, microelectronics, signal processing, and antenna systems. To earn the degree, students must complete 39 credit hours, which include 4 core courses (12 CHr), 4 elective courses (12 CHr), and a Master’s thesis (15 CHr).
The core courses provide a strong foundation in the field, covering subjects such as Advanced Digital Communication, Advanced Digital VLSI Design and Testing, Microwave Antenna Systems, and Advanced Digital Signal Processing. The elective courses allow students to tailor their studies to their interests, with options in Communications (e.g., Optical Communications, Wireless Communications, Satellite Communication Systems), Electronics (e.g., Nanoelectronics, Photonic Devices, Analog VLSI Design), Antennas (e.g., Smart Antenna Technology, Antennas for Mobile Communications), and Signal Processing (e.g., Adaptive Signal Processing, Neural Networks Applications, Advanced Digital Image Processing).
The thesis is an essential component, requiring students to conduct original research in a specialized area of electronics and communication engineering. It is divided into two parts (3 CHr + 12 CHr) and aims at producing work of publishable quality.
Graduates of this program are well-prepared for careers in academia, research, and industry across diverse areas, including wireless and mobile communications, VLSI design, biomedical systems, radar, satellite systems, and embedded electronics. The program may be completed on a full-time or part-time basis, depending on the student’s circumstances.
