Mobile Internet Research

The key objective of Mobile Internet Research is to provide a deep understanding of techniques, mechanisms, protocols and overall network architectures for future Internet design. Special emphasis is given to mobility aspects of future Internet since this is a clear distinction from the current mainly static Internet. The programme heavily involves network design, software implementation and experimentation.

KEY BENEFITS

• Located in the heart of London.
• Develop an in-depth technical knowledge in key state of the art technologies in the areas of mobile Internet and Internet technologies.
• Prepare students for more advanced academic programmes such as MPhil and PhD degrees.
• Students work closely with internationally known researchers at the Center for Telecommunications Research, providing them an excellent platform to excel in research and innovation in the area of wireless communications.

PURPOSEThe aim of this programme is to provide students with theoretical and advanced simulation skills necessary to pursue careers in the Research and Development sectors in the mobile industry area. The programme concerns with the design and implementation of innovative technologies to boost the performance of wired and wireless computer network infrastructures.

DESCRIPTION

• The programme provides students with an in-depth understanding of key technologies in the area of mobile Internet by conducting research.
• The key strength of the programme is the close link with the state-of-the-art research environment at the Centre for Telecommunications Research that provide a rich intellectual environment for students to achieve their goals and gain strong employment prospects.

In addition to the individual project, including writing a research thesis, students are required to complete two taught modules students in order to be eligible for the award of the MSc degree.
