    Course details

    Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing technologies allow interconnected devices to be embedded unobtrusively in everyday appliances and environments, and to communicate and co-operate to provide information and services on behalf of their human users. The development of Mobile and Ubiquitous computing applications and systems has been identified by many visionaries as a key enabler in the evolution of the next generation of technologies underpinning the "Internet of Things".

    The M.Sc. in Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing in Trinity College Dublin provides an excellent, and globally unique, grounding in the concepts, technologies and skills that underpin this future vision, and in the principles and practices of business technology leadership necessary to translate these innovations into compelling products and services.

    Creativity and innovation are fostered throughout the course, and cohere around a strong emphasis on practical engagement with the technologies, development and business strategies, used in building mobile, ubiquitous and "Internet of Things" computing systems.

    Technical course elements include modern communications and wireless platforms, advanced distributed systems engineering, "big data" management and analysis, embedded devices, security and end user interaction design. These are tightly aligned with business innovation and technical management strands to position graduates for both domain specialist and technical leadership, management and start-up innovation roles.
