This course provides a thorough understanding of modern and future communication systems and offers the opportunity to develop relevant practical and theoretical knowledge necessary to be at the forefront of the rapidly evolving telecommunications sector where the demand for skilled graduates is very high.
Middlesex University's strong links with industry have allowed them to develop a practically focused course, which is essential to the needs of the rapidly changing telecommunications industry. Middlesex University works with companies such as Microsoft and Siemens, and they are a Cisco local academy – meaning students will have access to the latest equipment, and can make use of specialist teaching materials and workshops. The department is very active in cutting-edge research and students will be encouraged to learn, explore and work within MU's award-winning technology centre and telecoms laboratories. The labs are equipped with specialist hardware from National Instruments (NI), including the industry standard NI- USRP reconfigurable radio platform, and software such as MATLAB & Simulink, Cisco Packet Tracer, Riverbed Modeller, and EDX Signal Pro.
If students are not already in work, they'll have the option of doing a placement for up to 12 weeks, during which they'll work on their independent final project. MU is very closely linked to their alumni students who have been employed in the UK and abroad with companies like BT, Amelco Ltd, Alcatel-Lucent, ZS Associates, Symphony Teleca, and F5 Networks.
