The Masters in Mobile Design & Engineering provides you with a thorough grounding in research methods, together with experience of developing a research proposal and conducting a research project – preparing you for research positions in universities and industrial laboratories. If you have a very good undergraduate degree in computing, and you wish to advance your knowledge and research skills in the area of mobile and ubiquitous systems, this programme is designed for you. You will benefit from having 24-hour access to a computer laboratory equipped with state-of-the-art hardware and software. You will have opportunities to meet employers who visit to give recruitment presentations, and often seek to recruit our graduates during the programme. In the most recent independent review of research quality (RAE 2008), computer science and informatics at Glasgow was rated in the UK’s top ten.

You will be well qualified for responsible positions requiring mobile/ubiquitous systems research and engineering skills, not only in the IT sector but also in many other sectors such as education, engineering, health services, financial services, government, manufacturing, retail, and transport. You will also be very well qualified to proceed to a PhD in computing science.
