Program Overview

Program Description:

This programme is well suited to graduate design engineers, as well as managers working in the modern communications and electronics industries.

A whole range of new multimedia services underpins the colossal growth in all these areas. The rapid growth in mobile phone and internet has caused the huge demand for the 3rd generation wireless wideband (UMTS), due to be in operation this year in the most of the EU, and the evolutionary research into broadband (data bit rate > 2 Mbps) wireless communications with optical communication as a backbone network.
