Learning Outcomes
- | The aim of the major in Intelligent Microsystems is to provide students with a competitive advantage in their careers by providing them knowledge on a field of new technology (microsystems) together with algorithmic know-how (machine intelligence). The goal is that students can provide added value in their future careers by being able to design intelligent systems which utilize microsystem technologies. After completing the study module, a student |
- | is able to design, model, simulate, test and apply microsensors, microactuators and microfluidic structures and understands their physical principles and the specifications of corresponding commercial products, |
- | is familiar with the concept of scaling effect and understands the consequences in different microtechnology domains, |
- | is familiar with the basic principles of microfabrication, understands the potential and limitations of the different methods and can design simple fabrication processes, |
- | is familiar with the characterization methods of microscale components and is able to use basic devices, |
- | is able to combine know-how on measurement data analysis methods or modern control methods with know-how on microsystems, |
- | is able to write technical reports and scientific publications and give technical presentations in English, |
- | is able to start doctoral studies in microsystems or an R&D career in industry. |
