This is a joint MSc between the Cyprus University of Technology and the Hangzhou Dianzi University in China. The program targets to deliver specialists in the cross-cutting field of Electronic Science and Technology. Our graduates have solid theoretical knowledge, be able to do research independently, trace the latest development of technologies at home and abroad, conduct advanced techniques in research and problem-solving, read and compose technical papers, engage in international exchange, and be full of team spirit and professionalism.

This is a 3 years degree, split between Cyprus and China. The program follows a 1+1+1 year structure.

The first academic year is dedicated on course teaching and all students study at HDU in China. At the end of the first year, students need to submit a thesis proposal in coordination with teaching staff at CUT. The second academic year is spent at CUT for scientific research and completion of the thesis under the supervision of CUT staff. At the end of the second year, the students will have a mid-examination of their thesis work.

In the third academic year, students shall complete practical scientific and technological work as an extension of their thesis research, including publishing one or more professional-related academic papers, or applying a patent or issued one practical patent. In addition, students shall continue to finalize the dissertation, submission for review, and defense to meet HDU's graduation requirements.

This MSc is only offered in English
