QUALIFICATIONS:
Have demonstrated knowledge and understanding that provides a basis or opportunity for originality in developing and/or applying ideas, often within a research context.
Can apply their knowledge and understanding, and problem solving abilities in new or unfamiliar environments within broader (or multidisciplinary) context related to their field of study.
Have the ability to integrate knowledge and handle complexity, and formulate judgments with incomplete or limited information, but that include reflecting on social and ethical responsibilities linked to the application of their knowledge and judgments.
Have the learning skills to allow them to continue to study in a manner that may be largely self-directed or autonomous.
Have demonstrated the ability of understanding, making use and integrating of new technologies in electronic systems, to solve new problems or applications.
Adopting the scientific method as a fundamental working tool in both professional and research careers.
Have the ability to design electronic systems at the behavioral level, from a set of certain specifications, whether at system level, using modeling and simulation tools, or at subsystem level, using hardware description languages.
