The demand for high-performance, miniaturised and energy-efficient integrated circuits and microchips is constantly growing. Both offer exciting new applications in areas such as brain-computer interfaces (BCI), neuromorphic computing, autonomous vehicles, the Internet of Things (IoT) and quantum computing.
The specialisation in Chip Design will give you knowledge and insight into the complexity of integrated circuits, design of mixed-signal ICs and performance requirements. You will learn about system-on-chip design, low-power mixed-signal techniques, modern communication systems, and the design of radio transceivers and integrated systems. You will work with classical analogue, RF and digital design of integrated circuits.
With expertise in complex integrated circuits and systems, as a graduate MSc in Engineering with specialisation in Chip Design you will be in demand to work as, for example, an IC design and process engineer in semiconductor production, IC design and in telecommunications companies.
