Course Overview

The term Internet of Things (IoT) encompasses everything connected to the internet, and it is increasingly being used to define objects that 'talk' to each other. Connected machines and objects in factories offer the potential for a 'fourth industrial revolution. This course is designed to provide you with the opportunity to acquire knowledge across a range of computing and engineering systems disciplines and develop skills in the use of cloud computing, communication systems, cyber-physical systems, and security. You will benefit from access to our modern facilities which include a range of professionally equipped laboratories and on-campus IoT communication infrastructure. With help from the Digital Catapult (the UK's leading advanced digital technology innovation center), and the IoTUK, we have installed an IoT Gateway on campus, which will be used to connect our IoT sensors and edge devices; such as Arduinos and Raspberry Pi's, to a cloud for IoT.
