About the education


Innovative environments, methods and tools

The education at Halmstad University is characterised by our profiling

as a university that drives innovation. As the teaching is conducted by

active researchers, you will be in close contact with the university's

research.

Many of the programme's technical courses are project-based and give

you the opportunity to immerse yourself in current international

research. Applications for autonomous vehicles feature in several parts


of the programme.

Courses and competencies in focus

In the Master's programme in Embedded and Intelligent Systems, you


build up theoretical and practical skills for research, design and

development of embedded intelligent systems. You also obtain in-

depth knowledge of computer architecture, communications systems,

real-time computer systems, signal analysis, sensor systems, learning


systems, data mining and control technology.

In the first semester, you take courses in the programme's main field of

study, computer technology. In the second and third semester, you

choose courses which focus on intelligent systems or embedded


systems or both. In the third semester, all students take the project

course Design of embedded intelligent systems. In this course, you will

participate in a larger project where you will contribute with the

specialised knowledge and skills you have accumulated.

The programme is conducted in English.

Specialise with elective courses

From the second semester, you will learn about intelligent vehicles,
machine learning, and image analysis. You will also be able to choose
more specialised electives in robotics or embedded parallel

computing.

Collaboration opportunities
The programme is carried out in collaboration with industry. In the
degree project, which is done during the third and fourth semesters,
