Manipal University is offering postgraduate course in “Embedded Systems & Instrumentation” based on international curriculum. Manipal University has entered into a MoU with ESIGELEC School of Engineering, Rouen, France (which is supported by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Rouen France) for transfer of credits after completion of the first semester at Manipal.

In this dual degree programme, the students pursue the first semester programme at Manipal, and the second semester in ESIGELEC, France. Semester 3 and 4 would involve project work which would be carried out in an industry or university or an R&D organisation either in France or India, for which the Manipal University and ESIGELEC will provide their assistance. Students are also eligible to get Master of Science degree in Control & Embedded Instrumentation from ESIGELEC France after 3 semesters.

After the successful completion of the academic requirements, a student earns Masters Degrees both from Manipal University, India and ESIGELEC, France. The students who undergo this course will be able to join software & hardware companies alike.

Objectives:

The aim of the programme is to train engineers who will imbibe strong knowledge, experience, and practice in control and embedded systems. They will be able to design, produce, and develop electronic systems and equipments of control command, which will be embedded in Aeronautic, Space, and Automobile industries for instance, in order to control different kind of processes. They will be able to adapt to new technologies in those sectors. They will not only get technical knowledge but also knowledge in project management.

They will study in an international environment which will offer them the possibility to discover new cultures and languages.

They will also get work experience through the internship which they will take up at the end of the programme.

The engineers trained in this programme can work as: a developer, a researcher, a project manager, a consultant, or a designer for embedded systems.

The students who undergo this programme will be able to select the courses based on their interest from broad basket of courses like Real time operating Systems, Device Drivers, Microprocessors, Instrumentation, Data Bases, Logic Synthesis, Project Management & French Language etc. There will be a provision for studying 2 electives in each semester, based on their personal interests and the market demands.
