Master of Science - Internet of Things Engineering

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an advanced technology that can link objects in the home, on transport, in the street or in the home together with little or no human interactions. IoT is reshaping modern systems, incorporating technological, economic, and social prospects. From alerting health professionals if someone in the home has had a fall to enabling home users to make better use of energy tariffs during day for household chores IoT is becoming a force in all industries & is generating valuable data. With IoT systems evolving from conventional to more personalized systems where information can be safely accessed, shared, and studied more easily this course will equip students with the knowledge and skills to businesses are looking for in this area.

A shift has taken place, and change is inevitable, therefore as a society, it is an opportunity to transform, adapt and embrace Internet of Things (IoT). The Internet of Things is making all devices in the home and in the industrial environment smart and people can use that to their advantage to be more efficient, sustainable, inclusive, ethical, kinder to planet and society. The MSc Internet of Things Engineering curriculum has been co-designed with industry. The course has adopted the Conceive, Design, Implement and Operate (CDIO) engineering education practice developed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The CDIO projects are typically sourced from industry. These projects will provide students the opportunity to work individually and in groups developing real, inclusive and sustainable solutions to commercial problems and enabling students to become “Industry Ready Graduates”.
