MSE Master of Science in Engineering

The Swiss engineering master's degree

Ogni modulo equivale a 3 crediti ECTS. È possibile scegliere un totale di 10 moduli/30 ECTS nelle seguenti categorie: 

  • 12-15 crediti ECTS in moduli tecnico-scientifici (TSM)
    I moduli TSM trasmettono competenze tecniche specifiche del profilo e si integrano ai moduli di approfondimento decentralizzati.
  • 9-12 crediti ECTS in basi teoriche ampliate (FTP)
    I moduli FTP trattano principalmente basi teoriche come la matematica, la fisica, la teoria dell’informazione, la chimica ecc. I moduli ampliano la competenza scientifica dello studente e contribuiscono a creare un importante sinergia tra i concetti astratti e l’applicazione fondamentale per l’innovazione 
  • 6-9 crediti ECTS in moduli di contesto (CM)
    I moduli CM trasmettono competenze supplementari in settori quali gestione delle tecnologie, economia aziendale, comunicazione, gestione dei progetti, diritto dei brevetti, diritto contrattuale ecc.

Advanced Electronic Design (TSM_AdvElDes)

This Advanced Electronic Design module gives to the students the key elements for the development of high performance electronic systems. These systems are characterized by:

  • the presence of sensitive analogue circuits and signals
  • the presence of complex and high-speed digital ICs (Integrated Circuits)

Requisiti

The student must have knowledge and experience in the following areas:

  • Circuit analysis, Laplace / Bode
  • Active and passive electronic components, operational amplifiers
  • AD and DA conversion principle
  • Digital circuits

Obiettivi di apprendimento

  • The student is able to design a high-performance electronic board composed of sensitive analogue, mixed signal and high speed digital circuits.
  • The student is able to implement high-speed and high-resolution signal processing chains based on A/D and D/A converters, analogue functions blocs and complex digital ICs
