This module will give students an in-depth understanding of the theories, techniques and tools to model, analyse and simulate today’s communications systems and networks. The complexity of communication and signal processing systems has grown considerably during recent decades. The emergence of a variety of new technologies (such as fast and inexpensive hardware for DSP, fibre optics, integrated optical devices and microwave ICs etc.) has had a significant impact on the implementation of communication systems.

Computer-aided techniques are therefore vital for engineers to evaluate performance and optimise designs in a timely, cost-effective and effort-free manner. In this course students will consider both the physical layer (link-level) and the network layer (network-level) and the theory of modelling and practical applications using standard simulation packages.

Machine Learning for Business (MSIN0231)

Organisations increasingly rely on machine learning to help make important business decisions, e.g. whom to hire, which market to enter, or which company to acquire. This module analyses the benefits and pitfalls of using machine learning to help make those decisions. We will use multiple machine learning methods but especially focus on the common challenges they face when applied in a business context.

MBA Business Research Project (MSIN0172)

This module is a capstone project involving the development of business and management research skills and their application in a real-world context for a business research or a business plan. Students will acquire an academic and practical foundation in research methods and collect and analyse data in relation to business issues. Students will be expected to integrate the full range of knowledge acquired during the MBA with their own professional experience when investigating business issues and making recommendations. Students should demonstrate capacity of applying business research in business contexts, and capacity of reflecting about their learning experience in the MBA.
