The Communication Systems program is a two year master program. It consists of 1.5 year (90 higher education credits) of course work and half a year (30 higher education credits) of Master thesis project work. The program starts with a set of compulsory courses (30 higher education credits), which provide in-depth knowledge in the fundamental areas of Communication Systems. The program continues with a wide range of elective courses, allowing the student to specialize within the programme subject areas. The third semester includes some form of a project course (compulsory or elective) that gives the student the possibility to work in groups and within research projects that run within the ICT School. The fourth semester is devoted to the Master thesis project work. The courses in the programme are grouped into three main subject areas:

• Internetworking
