Course summary
Why choose this course
Satellites give us an unprecedented perspective of our planet, aid navigation and provide global communications.
At Surrey, we’re internationally renowned for our work in satellite communications, broadcasting, terrestrial mobile?networks and the internet: essential components of modern communication and information.
Our MSc is taught by academics and researchers with extensive theoretical expertise and practical knowledge – so you’ll get a learning experience that really is out of this world.
What you will study
Satellite communications enable wireless communication in regions where mobile networking may not be possible. Our course will give you an in-depth understanding of the engineering aspects of these important technologies.
With useful links to major satellite manufacturers, operators and service providers, we’re the proud home of the world’s largest academic research group specialising in 5G and 6G communications.
Our?5G/6G Innovation Centre?was founded by major national and international players in the communications industry, including the UK’s leading mobile operators. Here, the focus is on the research and development of mobile communications and wireless technology capable of meeting the needs of the digital economy and the world of tomorrow. A key element of this work involves examining how satellites will integrate with future 5G/6G technology.
