PROFILES

Candidate Profile

The Master’s Degree in Engineering - Telecommunications is aimed at Computer and System, Electronic, Electrical, Telecommunications Engineers or professionals from other areas of knowledge who demonstrate competencies in telecommunications engineering.

Graduate Profile

The Master in Telecommunications may act as researcher, director, advisor and executor of network, regulatory and business projects in the field of telecommunications.

OBJECTIVES

The specific learning outcomes of the Research curriculum are:

• To strengthen the research areas that serve as the basis for the program.
• To allow and encourage interaction between the University and public and private entities for the development of studies and research and for the exchange of experience in the field of telecommunications.

The specific learning outcomes of the In-Depth curriculum are:

• To carry out technological transfer in telecommunications, allowing the research being developed to be appropriate for the productive sector.

CURRICULUM STRUCTURE

RESEARCH

Research curriculum: The main objective of training is for students to acquire the skills and knowledge that allow them to participate in knowledge generation processes or technological processes, which can be applied in problem solving.

In this way, subjects and academic activities are taught that allow them to develop a Master’s thesis (written dissertation), which lasts for 2 semesters, which is equivalent to 22 credits, that is, 1056 working hours. Generally, the subject of the master's thesis could be deepened in the doctorate.

IN-DEPTH STUDY

In-Depth Curriculum: Also known as Professional Master, the main objective is for students to acquire skills and knowledge specific to the profession, which can be applied in the resolution of concrete problems, the study of cases, or the analysis of particular situations of a disciplinary or interdisciplinary nature that should not necessarily lead to a process of generating new knowledge.

In this way, courses and academic activities are taken in this curriculum that allow the construction and preparation of a Final Work, in which methods, scientific and technological developments already existing in the resolution of a specific problem are applied. The final work lasts for one semester, equivalent to 10 credits, or 480 working hours.

For this modality, in accordance with Article 3 of Agreement 040 of 2017, the Postgraduate Curriculum Advisory Committee has defined as the final working modality only the Final Work Project.
