Master's Degree in Internet of Things - IoT

2024/2025 · 60 credits

Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering and Telecommunications Engineering

Introduction

The Master's Degree in IoT (MUIoT) provides the necessary knowledge to design, configure, integrate and maintain systems for the digital interconnection of objects and people that operate autonomously and intelligently, generating useful information for decision-making.

The Master's program delves into areas related to IoT, such as embedded systems and IoT devices, IoT architectures, wireless communications technologies, network protocols, cybersecurity, cloud computing, processing and analysis of massive data, programming and Artificial Intelligence.

Students of the Master's program can choose among three specializations:

  • Industrial IoT (IIoT): This specialization covers aspects such as Smart Factories, Industry 4.0/5.0 or sustainability in IoT (Green IoT).
  • Society 5.0: This specialization explores various application domains of the so-called Society 5.0, such as the use of IoT systems for health, for smart cities and for smart buildings and homes.
  • Connected Vehicle: This specialization addresses all aspects related to the use of IoT systems for connected vehicles. Specifically, it covers the application of IoT fundamentals to connected cars, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and intelligent transportation systems (ITS).

Why study

The MUIoT is a unique Master's program within the Galician University System that allows acquiring high-demand expertise in IoT in just one academic year. The received training is highly attractive due to:

  • Interdisciplinarity: IoT is a technological discipline that combines knowledge of computer networks, programming, electronics, data analysis, Artificial Intelligence and cybersecurity, among others. This allows students to acquire a comprehensive and versatile training applicable in multiple sectors.
  • Innovation and Entrepreneurship: IoT is a field of constant innovation. Studying the MUIoT offers the opportunity to stay at the forefront of technological advances and potentially develop innovative projects and solutions. Additionally, it is a fertile ground for technological entrepreneurship, given the wide range of applications and the constant need for new solutions.
  • Social and Economic Impact: IoT has the potential to transform various industries, allowing IoT professionals to work on highly interesting projects due to their potential positive impact on society and their quality of life.
  • High Specialization: Students can choose among three highly demanded specializations: Industrial IoT (IIoT), Society 5.0 and Connected Vehicle.

In summary, studying the MUIoT not only prepares students in one of the most dynamic and promising areas of modern technology but also empowers them to be agents of change in an increasingly interconnected and technology-dependent world.
