Objectives of the Graduate school

The first objective of the graduate School in electronics and communications is to provide courses on advanced techniques and courses on advanced systems in which recent concepts of electronics and communications are used. It is believed by the organizers that the courses on advanced systems constitute a quite unique offer covering both electronics and communications aspects in recent systems. In order however to make it possible for the attendees to have the sufficient background, courses on advanced techniques are offered which should provide them with the most recent scientific achievements in more detailed and specific aspects of microelectronics or communications.

The second objective of the Postgraduate courses is also to make it possible for Ph. D. students and researchers, registered to GSEC or not, or even engineers from the industry, to get an in-depth training in disciplines they do not have the opportunity to investigate in their daily research.

Programme management

The programme committee of the graduate School is composed of academics and research fellows of the different laboratories. The programme is defined on yearly basis.

Research themes

The graduate School mainly covers the following research themes: analog and digital electronic circuits, integrated circuits technology, information and communication theory, communication systems, microwave systems, signal processing.

Programme

Each year, 4 courses of 18 hours (3 consecutive days) are organized. The courses are given in English and at UCL. For the academic year 2000-2001 the programme is as follows:

Fall 2001

GSEC 3001 : Seminar 1 on advanced techniques : "Turbo techniques in digital transmission", coordinated by L. Vandendorpe. Provisional invited speakers: P. Duhamel, LSS, Paris, I. Fijalkow, ENSEA, Paris, S. Benedetto, Torino.

GSEC 3011 : Seminar 1 on advanced systems : "Medical imaging systems" coordinated by B. Macq.

Spring 2002

GSEC 3002 : Seminar 2 on advanced techniques : "Basic techniques for analog SoC (system-on-a-chip) design", coordinated by D. Flandre.

GSEC 3011 : Seminar 3 on advanced techniques : "MicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS): from smart sensors to micromachined microwave circuits" coordinated by J.-P. Raskin. UCL speakers: D. Flandre.

Provisional invited speakers: G. Rebeiz, The University of Michigan, MI, USA. D. Collard, IEMN, Lille, France. K. Baert, IMEC, Leuven.
