Postgraduate INFORMATION and COMMUNICATION RADIOENGINEERING (MSc)

Entrance Exam Description

Subjects of the exam: English Language, specialty exam.

Program Structure

The programme combines advanced theory, applied engineering, laboratory practice and project work to build strong competencies:

1. Advanced Radio and Communication Fundamentals
Students deepen their understanding of key technical areas such as: High-frequency (RF and microwave) system design; Antenna theory and design; Signal processing techniques; Electromagnetic compatibility and propagation.
These courses establish robust foundations in the behaviour and design of modern communication systems.

2. Applied Technologies and Tools
The programme focuses on practical engineering skills in areas including: RF circuit design and testing; Wireless and digital communication systems; Software-defined radio and embedded platforms; Measurement and instrumentation for high-frequency systems.
Hands-on labs and project-oriented assignments help students gain experience with industry-standard equipment and tools.

3. Systems Integration & Network Concepts
Students study how components work together within modern communication infrastructures: Network design for wireless and mobile systems; Integration of radio modules with digital processing; Performance evaluation and optimisation.
This prepares graduates to work across scales — from individual devices to large communication networks.

4. Master’s Thesis
The programme culminates in an independent Master’s thesis project — a substantial piece of research or engineering design that synthesises disciplinary knowledge to solve a real technical challenge in radio engineering or communication systems.

Overview

This programme is designed to prepare professionals with advanced expertise in modern radio systems, communication technologies, signal processing, antennas and high-frequency circuits. Students gain both theoretical knowledge and practical skills needed to work with complex information and communication systems, including next-generation wireless networks, microwave technologies and intelligent radio devices.
