About
UCL and the University of Cambridge have established an exciting Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Connected Electronic and Photonic Systems (CEPS), leveraging their strong collaborations in research and innovation. Both institutions are amongst the world's leading research universities and boast academic excellence.
The combined strengths of UCL and University of Cambridge provide a training environment in connected electronic and photonic systems that is hard to beat, worldwide.
The CEPS CDT provides doctoral training using expertise drawn from a range of disciplines, and collaborates closely with a wide range of UK industries, using innovative teaching and learning techniques.
This Master's degree aims to create graduates with the skills, confidence and ability to drive future research, development and exploitation in the field of photonic technologies.
As photonics becomes a fundamental underpinning technology in electronics-based systems and applications within communications, sensing, manufacturing and biomedicine, MRes graduates will be well-prepared for a career in this multi-disciplinary field or to conduct powerful, influential research.
