Description

The master's program aims to train specialists who have the integrative vision of the systems computing, communications and management for heterogeneous, complex and large physical processes, a whose operation must correspond to a set of required performances.

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) represent a modern paradigm for managing complex, heterogeneous systems that integrate autonomous physical processes, sensors, communication networks, and software services. Examples include smart cities, intelligent manufacturing, and supply chains. Specialists in CPS require expertise in systems theory, sensor/computer networks, and communications, along with skills to model, test, and evaluate diverse physical processes efficiently.

Other Information

The ideal CPS master's student profile includes skills in systems engineering and in the field of information and / or communication technologies.
