About

Communications Technology offers specialisations in two traditional tracks, Communications Engineering and Communications Circuits and Systems, and will offer two more specialisations starting in the 2021 academic year. These specialisations will be in Sensor Circuits and Systems and Intelligent Embedded Systems. The specialisations offer a strong foundation in wireless communications, signal processing, optical communication devices, integrated circuits, RF engineering, sensor principles, machine learning and embedded systems. Those whose main interest is modern digital communication methods, such as coding, networking, or advanced modulation techniques, will choose the Communications Engineering track. In accordance with the research specialisation of the Electrical Engineering Faculty at the University of Ulm, mobile communication methods and systems are strongly emphasised. Students interested in the underlying hardware aspects, such as microwave/millimetre-wave engineering, microelectronics, and optoelectronic devices, will opt for the Communications Circuits and Systems track, in which the emphasis is on the hardware aspects of modern communication systems. The excellent infrastructure in millimetre waves and microfabrication offers a unique combination of theoretical instruction with hands-on laboratory experience. Students with a focus on integrated circuit and sensor design can opt for the specialisation in Sensor Circuits and Systems, in which mixed-signal and RF integrated circuits, mm-wave engineering, integrated sensors and sensor interfaces will be taught. Software-oriented students with a background and interest in information system technology or computer engineering can specialise in Intelligent Embedded Systems. In this track, machine learning, pattern recognition, embedded and secure system engineering are the focus.
