The Masters in Embedded Systems addresses the contemporary trends of pervasive computerization, better performance, cheaper products and reduced environmental impact, while combining electrical engineering and computer science for applications in embedded software for controlling the power grid and energy-efficient wireless communication (e.g. high-performance applications (radar systems), underwater communication).

The goal of the programme is to qualify graduates who can develop embedded systems, because they will obtain the necessary knowledge to develop both the hardware and the software needed. The specific objectives are;

1. Produce graduates with competency in development, implementation and management of energy efficient communication systems.
2. Produce graduates with skills to perform independent research
3. Train graduates for take up careers in industry, academics or research & development institutions

The Master of Engineering in Renewable Energy Engineering (REE) programme consists of two parts. Part I consists of coursework equivalent to one academic year (two semesters) of full-time study and Part II consists entirely of project work carried out over a subsequent period of six to twelve months leading to submission of a dissertation.

In the first two semesters, students will study the foundations needed for the design of embedded systems. In the third semester, students can study specialized areas of computer science and electronics (. In the fourth semester, students do internship. The program consists of course work, examination and thesis for a total duration of 4 semesters. Research work takes up 60% of the program while course work takes up 40%.

The trades targeted by this programme are related to the design and integration of energy efficient systems, and use of computer electronics technologies and networks in the following:

1. Management and services (Immotics), remote management, teleservice, tele-monitoring, remote maintenance of domestic or tertiary housing, group of houses, buildings or neighbourhood, management of intra and inter buildings and energy management taking into account the issues of sustainable development.
2. Health and technical aids for disabled or elderly dependent, hygiene and air quality and habitat, and home care.
3. New services, communication objects, intelligent housing.

The programme was first accredited by the Tunisian Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in 2014.

The accreditation is valid over a 4 year period ( 2018 – 2022)
