Course overview

Digital signal processing (DSP) is at the core of the communications revolution. Research is constantly being carried out to develop new DSP algorithms, allowing mobile broadband services, 'Internet of Things' applications and other technologies to be delivered to a growing number of users. Statistical signal processing is also fundamental to all aspects of the parallel robotics revolution, including sensing, localisation and the now ubiquitous discipline of machine learning.

This programme will give you a thorough introduction to the communications landscape, giving you an in-depth understanding of DSP, wireless communications, optical communications networks and the complex issues around network security. You can also study specialist modules such as embedded microprocessors or FPGA System-on-Chip.

The School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at Leeds is an exciting and stimulating environment. It's home to specialist teaching facilities and a wealth of leading researchers working on real-world issues and contributing to global change.

This means you'll be learning the most up-to-date practices, preparing you with the specialist skill set and topical knowledge you'll need to pursue a rewarding career in this field.
