Key Summary
Introduction
The Internet of Things (IoT) represents a new stage in the digital revolution, fully contributing to the construction of a digital society. Several sectors of the digital society use or will use the internet of objects to improve deployment, exploitation, and industrialization procedures. These include intelligent transport, smart grids, smart city, industry 4.0, and so on. The issues concerning the mastery of the technologies and processes around the internet of objects are enormous and require a very high level of expertise with cutting-edge skills in multidisciplinary areas.
Key Words: Sensors, Actuators, Low-energy communication, Big Data, Data Semantic, Machine Learning, Security, Business Intelligence
Objectives
- Design tools for processing and analyzing large amounts of data from sensors.
- Design and develop IoT applications and services adapted to industrial needs.
- Understand and design communication mechanisms adapted to the constraints of the sensors (energy consumption, lack of computing capacities).
- Acquire dual competencies technical courses in advanced fields (data exploitation, software development, communication networks in constrained environments, Machine Learning, sensor security) associated with courses in Innovation, Project Management, Entrepreneurship, etc.
Curriculum
Course Description
Students need to validate a certain amount of credits per Teaching Unit each semester. The curriculum offers great flexibility by offering elective courses.

Semester Project
Supervised Semester Projects are based on real-case studies of industrial relevance. They combine a blend of theoretical and practical work (developing new prototypes and tools, testing new technologies, assessing current systems and solutions…). Students can work individually or in groups of 2/3. The expected workload is 200 hours of individual work per semester. A defense is organized at the end. Projects provide students with hands-on skills by allowing them to put concepts into practice. (200h)
Semester 10 - Spring (30 ECTS) - March-August
Research / Industrial Internship (Paid)
The internship is to be carried out in a compare search / Industrial Internship (Paid)Unit ECTS: 30.00ny or lab in France or abroad. It allows students to get hands-on experience and ease their entry into the job market. Students work on a research/development project under the supervision of a professor and an industrial mentor. Students are integrated as part of the staff and receive a monthly allowance, the amount of the allowance depends on the company and position. EURECOM helps students find an internship by providing an updated database of paid internship opportunities offered by companies.
