Catalogue of disciplines

Overview

Electronics and Applied Informatics master program coordinated by Department of Applied Electronics and Information Engineering of the faculty ETTI of UPB offers to its graduates a wide opening towards applications electronics in various industrial fields (efficient energy conversion of electricity from conventional and conventional primary energy sources renewables, transportation, industrial automation, robotics, medicine, informatics for industrial environments, neuroinformatics, processing and transmission of information through wireless sensor networks, etc), reflected by the study disciplines in its curriculum: Process Control control, Artificial intelligence in robotics, Fundamentals of automotive electronics, Virtual Instrumentation and Biomedical Engineering, Industrial Informatics, Electronics of renewable energy systems, Numerical automatic systems, Dedicated Systems, Efficient Electrical Power Conversion, Neuroinformatics Applied Neuroinformatics, Power Electronic Systems, Virtual Instrumentation and Engineering Biomedical Engineering. To these are added practical subjects in which the master student is directly involved in scientific research activities during throughout the 2 years of study alongside the teaching staff course and applications (Research-documentary project, Research research-development, Integrative research project, Research carried out during during the first 3 semesters and Scientific Research, Research Practice and dissertation in the last semester). The curriculum also includes includes the subject Quality and Human Resources Management, which provides students the basics needed in the companies where graduates will be and, last but not least, Ethics and Academic Integrity which teaches the basics of respect for values and moral principles in firms and in social life.

Who is it for?

Potential candidates for this master program are graduates of undergraduate studies in the fields of: electronic engineering and computer telecommunications, computer and information technology, engineering sciences applied engineering, electrical engineering, systems engineering, computer science, engineering aerospace - specialization in aviation equipment and installations, engineering weapons, missiles and munitions engineering, energy engineering - specializations energy and nuclear technologies and energy systems engineering, engineering and management - specialization in economic engineering in the field of electrical, electronic and energy engineering, who wish to specialize in this current interdisciplinary field.

The experience of previous years has proven the interest in the EIA Master's program of both own graduates, but also of the graduates of other faculties electrical engineering from UPB (Faculty of Engineering in Foreign Languages, Engineering Electrica, Energetica etc) as well as from other universities in the country (Academia Technical Military Academy, Transilvania University of Brasov, Ovidius University in Constanța, Lucian Blaga University in Sibiu etc),
