The Program of Postgraduate Studies (P.P.S.) in Electronic Physics (Radioelectrology) has been functioning under the Physics Department of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki since 1965.
In September 2018 a reformed program of studies is going to be applied leading to the MSc Degree on the following areas:
- Electronics and
- Telecommunications
After fulfilling the MSc Degree, students may continue their studies on the pursuit of a PhD.
The Postgraduate Program in “Electronic Physics (Radioelectrology)” focuses on the education and specialization of students in Electronics Technology and Research Methodology exploiting the infrastructure and know-how of the Department of Physics – AUTh in this area. The aim of the Program is to provide high-level postgraduate education in order to deliver specialized Electronic Physicists with advanced skills, capable to meet the requirements of the labor-market in the areas of Electronics and Telecommunications.
In particular, the graduates acquire skills that enable them to:
- analyze and design analog and digital integrated circuits and systems,
- develop systems and techniques for electronic measurements and sensor systems,
- study and design the architecture of digital and embedded systems,
- analyze and design antennas,
- develop radiocommunication systems,
- estimate the electromagnetic exposure from emission systems through proper measurements,
- evaluate electronic and communication devices concerning EMC,
- develop and use design software for electronic circuits and telecommunication systems.
Furthermore, the graduates acquire the ability to
- work either independently, or in a team, in research activities, often in the framework of international research projects,
- search for new knowledge and bibliographic information on the latest scientific developments,
- present and defend their work to third parties.
Finally, graduates develop a wide scientific knowledge in the field of Electronic Physics and the flexibility to adapt to new research areas relevant, or simply associated, to the field of their studies.
The scientific background of the graduates allows them to work in manufacturing enterprises and service providers, dealing with Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics. They are also employed in research and educational institutes.
