Course summary

Cyber physical systems integrate computation with physical objects and processes. Examples of cyber physical systems are: 'smart' devices in the home such as a smart meter or fridge voice assistant devices driverless vehicles medical monitoring equipment wearable devices robotic assistants Our course is designed for students with a background in computer science or a related field with analytical skills. You'll learn the principles of integrated system design and computational and cyber physical systems methods and tools. The key topics covered will include: artificial intelligence robotics cyber security modelling and simulation ethical design interactive systems The benefit of a two-years masters is that you can build the foundation of your knowledge in year one then use your skills for a year-long practical or research project. During the second year, you will undertake an individual research project. This could be software-based or research-based. Collaboration with business, industry, and other outside bodies is encouraged. This course is linked to the school’s research groups. Our broad research means we can offer a variety of projects across the spectrum of computer science and cyber physical systems. A one-year version of this course is available.

Modules

You will largely work and study in lecture theatres, seminar rooms, and laboratories. Your research project will be in an area of cyber physical systems that you choose. This can be aligned with your own personal interests or your career ambitions. You will receive support from our academic staff and world-leading research groups. You will study a year of taught modules in your first year. This will teach you the fundamentals of cyber physical systems. You will study topics such as cybersecurity, human-computer interaction, and autonomous robotics.


Entry requirements

2:1 (or international equivalent) with a background or interest for programming. Graduates from a science or engineering background will be considered with a 55% average mark.
