Master of Engineering in Electronic and Computer Engineering

Program Overview

Ireland has evolved into one of the world’s most important centres for high-tech businesses. The ICT sector in Ireland is a thriving and growing industry with 9 of the top 10 global ICT companies maintaining a presence in Ireland. The economic contribution of the sector is substantial. The ICT industry is responsible for approximately 25% of Ireland’s total turnover, representing one-third of Ireland’s exports by value. This ME in Electronic & Computer Engineering is a two-year programme designed to develop professional engineers who can excel in the electronic and computer sectors worldwide.

The ME in Electronic and Computer Engineering is a two-year programme that educates professional engineers who can excel in the burgeoning worldwide electronic and computer sectors. The programme can be taken by graduates with an honours bachelor's degree in electronic engineering or a closely related discipline.   The student is provided with a deep understanding of a wide range of topics pertinent to the electronic and computer hardware and software industries.  Knowledge and skills are built through a mix of taught courses, laboratory work, a major project and professional work experience.  The qualification meets the international requirements for chartered professional engineers. Teaching methods vary, to suit the wide range of subjects.  The strong laboratory component allows students to experience the practical side of electronic engineering, while assignments provide design and problem-solving challenges.  In the final year, a substantial project draws together many of the separate strands of learning, with a stress on independent learning and communication skills.  Throughout the programme there is a strong emphasis on the mathematical and analytical underpinnings of the discipline providing an excellent foundation for entry into advanced research programmes in academia and industry.
