Description: 

Electronics and Telecommunications
Full-time, 2nd cycle studies are three-semester long and finish with a presentation of the Master Thesis. The graduate is awarded a Master of Science degree.

At this stage of education the student follows one of the specializations: Computer Network Equipments and Systems, Networks and Services, Sensors and Microsystems. The graduates acquire theoretical knowledge and practical skills indispensable for designing, manufacturing, implementing and exploiting circuits, devices, electronic systems, telecommunications systems, networks and services. This study programme aims at specifying current and future electronic and telecommunications techniques with the use of new technologies and computer tools as well as development of these technologies and fabrication of tools. In the first phase of studies the student gains a theoretical background in basic subjects, whereas the disciplinary and specialized subjects are introduced in the second phase of studies. During the first semester (uniform for all specializations) the students acquire supplementary knowledge in basic theoretical subjects (Mathematics, Stochastic Processes, Numerical Methods, Optimization Methods) and in major courses (Fibre Optics and Photonics, Programmable Logic Devices, Electromagnetic Compatibility, Information Theory and Coding, Security of Information Systems, Reliability and Diagnostics, Telecommunication Networks Design). The specialist education is realized according to various programmes elected at the second stage of full-time studies. Graduates are also prepared for team management, and are offered the 3rd cycle of studies (doctoral research).

SPECIALIZATION: Electronics and Telecommunications: Computer Network Equipments and Systems
The syllabus of Electronics and Telecommunications: Computer Network Equipments and Systems includes specialized compulsory and elective subjects such as equipment implementation of algorithms, computer architectures, integrated service networks, light pipes technique, networks and systems with dispersed intelligence, mobile radio communication systems, wireless networks, network devices, analogue CMOS systems in VLSI technique. The profile of studies is broad: computer science, teleinformatics, and multimedia communication systems. These disciplines provide the future electronic engineers with the knowledge, which is indispensable for designing new teleinformatic equipment, teleinformatic networks and network management. The graduate of this specialisation is familiarized with the equipment and standards of teleinformatic systems and local, metropolitan, wide area networks and integrated networks. Moreover, the student gains competences and skills in designing and constructing equipment and informing systems, computer hardware and networks, data transmission systems and software development.

SPECIALIZATION: Electronics and Telecommunications: Network and Services
A graduate in the specialization Electronics and Telecommunications: Network and Services is educated to make technical progress and is able to conduct creative professional activities in up-to-date electronics and telecommunications, especially in the field of telecommunication networks and services.
The programme of the specialization focuses on the education of prospective graduates who will be able to develop new telecommunication equipment and systems, networks, and will also be able to manage existing networks, analyse existing networks and future networks standards including wireless data transmission networks, modern IP networks, exchange of electronic documents, methods of modelling and testing telecommunication protocols, efficiency, research and development of data telecommunication systems, as well as to create www pages and digital videolibraries. During the first semester (uniform across all specializations) students acquire supplementary knowledge in basic theoretical subjects (Mathematics, Stochastic Processes, Numerical Methods, Optimisation Methods) and in major courses (Fibre Optics and Photonics, Programmable Logic Devices, Electromagnetic Compatibility, Information Theory and Coding, Security of Information Systems, Reliability and Diagnostics, Telecommunication Networks Design).
During the following semesters the education is accomplished at three major courses: Network and Service Management, Digital Transmission Techniques, and Modelling and Simulation of Networks and Services,and within the framework of the elective courses: Wireless Data Transmission System, www – SED and PHP, Digital Video Libraries, Models of Telecommunication Services and Networks, Unified Signalisation Services, Global Communication Systems.

SPECIALIZATION: Electronics and Telecommunications: Sensors and Microsystems
The syllabus of Electronics and Telecommunications: Sensors and Microsystems includes specialized, compulsory and elective subjects such as designing and techniques of the microsystem development, light pipe technique, semi-conductive microsensors, photovoltaics and renewable energy sources, design of electronic equipment based on CAD and CAM systems, nanoelectronics, electronic editing, testing systems, analogue COMS systems based on VLSI technique, spintronics, vacuum techniques, production and research methods of thin-layer structures. The graduates of this discipline are familiarized with the equipment and standards for microsystems, sensor circuits as well as thin-layered nanoelectronic structures. They acquire ability to design and construct equipment.
