EMBEDDED SYSTEMS FOR INTERNET OF THINGS ( 2024 - 2025 ) - 202311599 - Studies portal

The internet of things represents a whole new technological world in which millions of interconnected objects can perceive, communicate and share information with one another and with the cloud. It is usually described as a network of physical objects that exchange information with each other to make the life of the end user easier without them having asked or made any interaction.

This master's degree has a clear professional orientation and its objective is to train expert engineers in the field of electronic device design focused on the internet of things.
The content of some modules may vary based on the students' background, technological or management profile.
