Autonomous Systems

Overview

Enhance Your Career Prospects with Autonomous Systems

From self-driving cars to robotic assistants, the Internet of Things, and AI-based software solutions – the future is autonomous. However, as an emerging technology, autonomous systems hold both opportunities and risks. The key to navigating this potential minefield is to not only understand the technology itself but, more importantly, be able to confidently evaluate autonomous processes and maximise the trade-off between business impact and resources spent.

This is where EIT Digital comes into play. With the Autonomous Systems programme at EIT Digital Master School, you’ll have the skills – and confidence – to drive the transition to autonomous systems.

How is the Programme Structured?

All EIT Digital Master School programmes follow the same scheme:

Students study one year at an ‘entry’ university and one year at an ‘exit’ university, both of which are located at an EIT Digital hot spot.

The first year of this Autonomous Systems programme is similar at all entry points, with a focus on basic courses that lay the foundation for the chosen technical programme. Students are also introduced to business and management during this first year. During the second semester, a design project is combined with business development exercises to demonstrate how technology can be transformed into a successful business. Students are also taught how to prepare and present a convincing business plan. Students have the option to take elective courses.

In between the first year and the second year, our summer school programme addresses business opportunities within a socially relevant theme.
