Programme Aims

The programme aims to provide an enhancement of specialist technical knowledge in strategically selected areas, such as RF & microwaves circuits & applied electromagnetics, wireless communications, networking & data communications, and optical communications that are relevant to the current and anticipated future needs from industry. Due to the rapid advances of existing technologies, the programme is designed for practicing engineers who want to upgrade and update their knowledge in this field.

The programme offers a good selection of business management electives, preparing engineers with knowledge on top of their technical fronts to take up managerial positions in their engineering career.

The programme also offers Industrial or Research Internship experience via the Applied Research Internship Scheme preparing students for full employment immediately after their research internships in the same establishments, or for further studies as PhD candidates in their related technology areas either locally or in overseas countries.


Programme Intended Learning Outcomes (PILOs)

Upon successful completion of this Programme, students should be able to:

  1. Describe current and anticipated trends in the selected areas including Wireless Communications; Networking and Information Engineering; Optical Communications; and RF & Microwave Circuits and Applied Electromagnetics.
  2. Evaluate and analyze new technologies in the selected areas.
  3. Apply specialist knowledge in the selected areas.
  4. Assess, evaluate and formulate solutions to problems or specifications, in the selected areas.
  5. Carry out research and develop new technologies and products in the selected areas.
  6. Apply effective communication skills in their professions.
  7. Manage teams of technologists with good senses of business and marketing (BM option only).
  8. Manage a research project and develop strong ability to do academic/ industrial research (IR option only).
