System on chip TEMPUS (4+1)
1. General information
The goal of the system on chip master study programme is to provide top quality European education and training for the ICT engineers. The study programme provides deeper and specialized understanding of the embedded systems and the methodologies for system on chip design. Upon completion of the studies, the engineers are expected to take up responsible business positions in the processes of planning, design and management of embedded systems implemented with various state of the art technologies.
- Offered by: Ss. Cyril and Methodius University - Skopje, Faculty of Computer Science and Engineering – FCSE
- Study programme: System on chip master studies
- Scientific-research field: Engineering and Technology
- Category: Electrical engineering, Electronic engineering, Information engineering
- Sub-category:Computer hardware andarchitecture
- The master studies cycle consists of 60 ECTS.
- Study duration: 2 semesters
- One academic year is divided into two semesters with 30 weeks each (1 semester = 15 weeks)
- The first semester is comprised of courses only, while in the second semester there are fewer courses and the rest of the time is devoted to the final project, i.e. master thesis.
- Enrollment requisites: fully completed undergraduate study cycle with a minimum of 240 ECTS with a degree in the fields of computer science and/or computer engineering. In the case of having an appropriate degree with less than 240 ECTS, the student has to enroll the introductory courses first.
- Introductory courses: only for students that have obtained less than 240 ECTS. A number of differential introductory courses are offered in order to level up the required competences. Upon successful completion of the introductory courses, the student has the right to continue with the formal master study programme courses in the second year of studies.
- First semester: 3 compulsory courses + 2 elective courses (one of the elective courses can be chosen from the courses list offered by the University)
- Second semester: 1 compulsory course + 1 elective course (can be chosen from the courses list offered by the University only in the event that this opportunity has not been used in the previous semester) + final master thesis project that equals 18 ECTS.
- 1 ECTS = 30 hours of work load.
- Contact hours per week is 4.
Degree: Master of computer science and engineering in the field of system on chip
