Electronic technologies for smart communicating systems

The Electronic TECHnologies (E-TECH) for Smart Communicating Systems specialization within the Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies (NN) Master’s program at the University of Lille is designed to inspire and prepare highly skilled technical and scientific engineers for the exciting world of research and innovation. ETECH graduates are prepared to take on leadership roles in the laboratories of major corporations in the microelectronics sector, as well as in small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and academic research institutions. Our program places a strong emphasis on technological innovation to address the current and future demands of various high-tech domains, including 5G and 6G telecommunications, IOT, healthcare, sustainable development, energy, transportation, and more. The NN Master’s curriculum is specifically tailored to equip students with the scientific and professional skills required to meet these upcoming challenges, with a particular focus on nurturing high-tech startups and fostering international careers. A prime example of the exciting transformations happening in the microelectronics field is the evolution of 5G communication networks to 6G. The future of these networks demands the creation of ultra-high-speed wireless communication systems, but that’s not all. It also necessitates the diversification of electronic systems, such as the development of autonomous vehicles connected to networks,  which will require increased information flow,  energy-efficient processing of data using artificial intelligence ; (both in software and hardware,  including neuromorphic circuits) , new sensors,  actuators,  and micro-sources of energy. Our comprehensive two-year program (equivalent to 120 ECTS) is based in one of the largest and most prestigious laboratories at the University of Lille, the Institute of Electronics, Microelectronics, and Nanotechnology (IEMN).With over 50 years of expertise in microwave technology and more than three decades in nanotechnologies, the IEMN provides invaluable support for our students. The institute is composed on state-of-the-art facilities, including a 1600m2 clean room and advanced characterization centers, enabling hands-on research and learning experiences. The core focus areas of our NN Master’s program draw inspiration from the advanced research initiatives of IEMN, encompassing IOT MakeSense, Telecom UHD and Neuromorphic Technologies. Given the international scope of research and development in these areas, mastering the English language is of paramount importance. Therefore, our courses are conducted in English to ensure our students are well-prepared for the global stage. Join us at the University of Lille and embark on an educational journey that will empower you to shape the future of electronic technologies and smart systems, positioning you at the forefront of innovation in the ever-evolving landscape of high technology. Your adventure begins here at the intersection of science, technology and imagination.
