ABOUT
What you will study
Mobile communications are rapidly becoming the main telecommunications infrastructure in the world.
With technology like 5G and 6G, mobile communications will connect everything from transport to factories, homes and, of course, people. Offering smarter operational efficiency in a variety of areas, this technology could improve the country’s overall productivity.
Our MSc will enable you to understand the engineering aspects of this rapidly developing field, as well as emerging systems for the support of broadband mobile internet.
We’re home to the world’s largest academic research group in 5G and 6G communications. Its founding members include the UK’s major mobile operators, so you’ll be exposed to advanced communications and study modules.
Research
Our Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering is home to the Institute for Communication Systems. This houses more than 100 researchers working across many communication technologies, including the ‘internet of things’, satellite, security and radio, as well as its core research hub – the 5G/6G Innovation Centre (5G/6GIC). More than £100 million worth of investment from government and industry is enabling 5G/6GIC to pioneer tomorrow’s connected society and digital economy. Your studies will be informed by some of the best innovation and research in the world.

Academic year structure
If you’re studying this course full-time, you’ll study eight modules across the year – four in each semester. During the first semester, you’ll also apply for and agree on a project with an academic supervisor and begin initial work on the project, before working on it full-time after the end of the second semester. From that point, you’ll have approximately two and a half months to complete the work and write up your dissertation.
You can also study this course part-time, taking between 2 and 5 years. The length depends on how many modules you study each year. You can study between two and six modules each year. We recommend part-time students work on their project in their final year of study when all eight modules have either been completed or are near completion.
