Program Description
Wireless technologies hold the promise for providing ubiquitous information access. The popularity of wireless devices is evident in the exponential growth of wireless LANs and cellular networks all over the world. In order to provide world class training for our M.Sc. students, we adapt an integrated approach for research and education. Therefore, our curriculum strikes a balance between introducing the basic tools required to establish a world class research program and exposing the students to recent technological advances in the field. The research and the requirements are intended to promote creativity and critical thinking in our student body.
The Master’s program will benefit from an intimate relationship with our new Wireless Intelligent Networks Research Center (WINC). This will allow our students access to state of the art lab facilities based on the recently introduced Wireless open Access Research Platform (WARP) and the emerging Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) technology. Finally, the students will have the opportunity to interact with leading researchers in the field.
Local/ International Partners
The Program is offered in collaboration with the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) and the Institute of Sensor Systems (ISS) at the Ohio State University.
Who should attend
- Fresh graduates with demonstrated potential to conduct cutting edge research in the area or the desire to broaden their knowledge in wireless technologies.
