What this course will give you

The EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Connected Electronic and Photonic Systems (CEPS CDT) leverages the academic excellence, strong collaborations and innovative teaching and learning environments of two world-leading universities: UCL and the University of Cambridge. Thanks to the combined strengths of the two institutions, and drawing from a range of disciplines and industries, this centre provides a doctoral training environment in this field that is hard to beat.

Photonics is a fundamental underpinning technology in electronics-based systems and applications within communications, sensing, manufacturing, biomedicine and more.

This Master's degree aims to create graduates who are well-prepared for a career in the multi-disciplinary field, who have the confidence and ability to drive future research, development and exploitation in photonic technologies.

Read about what you'll get out of a graduate programme

The MRes degree aims to train students in the skills needed to produce connected electronic and photonic systems for information, sensing, communications, manufacturing and personal healthcare systems. Students can choose from a programme of specialist taught modules and mini research projects that provide a solid foundation in photonic systems, advanced research skills and a good understanding of the industry.
