Prerequisites
Study block | Credit points | Mandatory/Advisable | Additional information |
25 cr | Mandatory | As the international students have not passed the B.Sc. level study module of signal processing in TUT, they should have passed similar courses in their B.Sc. studies or be prepared to pass these courses in TUT. The prerequisite courses should be checked from the descriptions of the individual courses of this study module. The necessary background is offered also when graduating from the International Degree Programme in Science and Engineering, BSc(Tech), with a major or minor subject in Information and Communications Technology. |

Additional information
Signal processing covers the analysis, filtering and interpretation of various types of signals, including images and video. Signal processing methods are often embedded in devices and some software systems. It is advisable to obtain good programming skills in order to be able to apply signal processing methods to such systems. Co-operation with other developers requires also communication, presentation and negotiation skills, as well as project management and leadership skills. The industry is interested in innovative engineers and therefore all self-invented hands-on experimentation with signals and images is highly advisable. Aside from the courses listed, to complete this major, the students are required to complete the following course: TST-01906 Master's Thesis Seminar (1 cr).
