Electrical Engineering is about many things that are essential parts of people’s lives. Telecommunication technology is a specialization based in Electrical Engineering. Telecommunication is a key enabler for today's information society. The rapidly increasing demand for speed and capacity together with the increasing need for mobility, makes it a field with strong dynamics and frequent introductions of new technologies in the network. The purpose of the Connected World Technologies (CWT) track is to teach students to work independently on complex research and design projects in the area of telecommunication, with the ability to rethink existing concepts and develop new ones. In the final phase of the program students will be able to present the results of their work to an international community.
