Wireless Engineering - Study line
Wireless equipment is omnipresent. Today it is a natural part of everyday life for school children to elderly and disabled people. We connect our laptop wirelessly to the Internet and use mobile or satellite phones, GPS navigational systems, RFID, wireless patient monitoring, security systems and wireless keys. Breathtaking new applications that could hardly be imagined a few years ago are constantly appearing. The wireless equipment helps us to be safe and make life comfortable.
The objective of the Wireless Engineering study line is to provide the students with excellent qualifications to perform research and development of advanced electromagnetic systems for wireless communication technologies such as satellites, telecommunications, mobile communications, broadcasting, radar and radiometer systems, and remote sensing.
The study line in Wireless Engineering gives you the opportunity to work at all levels from theory to applications. The courses range from highly theoretical to highly practical including experimental work in advanced laboratories. The study line is research-based and application-driven—often in close cooperation with other universities, research organizations and industry.
The Wireless Engineering study line is anchored in the Department of Electrical Engineering (DTU Elektro) but includes courses from other DTU departments. The study line in Wireless Engineering is research-based and application-driven – often in close cooperation with other universities, research organizations, or industry.
Career opportunities: Companies (e.g., Nokia, Oticon, GN Resound, Procom, Molex, Cobham, RFS, Ticra, and MasterCom), organizations and universities working in the field of satellite, mobile and broadcast communication systems; radar and navigation systems; RF and microwave circuit design; and remote sensing. Furthermore, there are opportunities for excellent MSc graduates to pursue a PhD programme at DTU.

Elective Courses
This group contains in principle all DTU's advanced level courses. In addition to regular courses, special courses are also accepted in this group of courses, provided that the topic and level of the special course is approved by DTU supervisors. Instead you may also choose to follow more programme specific courses or conduct a MSc thesis larger than the standard 30 ECTS points.
