Information, Biomedical and Telecommunications Engineering

The general approach of this Bachelor Degree (IBeT) is designed to provide students with the adequate tools that will help them understand and elaborate on the issues typically associated with the wide ICT domain. Overall, thanks to an adequate amount of time dedicated to personal study and because of the general approach of the program, students will gain a skill-set that will help them to master the most recent developments in this field of study.

Within the scope of mathematics and physics teaching, students are provided with the tools and independent judgement necessary to represent and solve even complex problems. In particular, basic training activities provide students with the ability to know and understand:

• the fundamentals of infinitesimal calculus, the concept of series, differential and integral calculus of functions, Laplace and Fourier transforms (MAT/05);
• the main concepts of linear algebra and Euclidean geometry (MAT/03);
• the main concepts of physics and, in particular, electromagnetism (FIS/01).

The core training activities, on the other hand, aim to provide students with the operational tools that enable them to independently identify solutions to classic problems in the ICT sector. In particular, they provide the ability to know and understand:

• the principles of computer science and programming, procedural imperative languages and the object-oriented paradigm, the organisation of microprocessor systems and their operation, basic concepts relating to microcontrollers (ING-INF/05);
• the principles of communications and signal processing (ING-INF/03), signal propagation, electromagnetic radiation, and electromagnetism (ING-INF/02);
• the principles of operation, the instrumentation used, and the processing implemented in the main types of clinical diagnostic instrumentation (ING-INF/06); iv) the representation of dynamic systems and basic techniques for their analysis in the frequency domain (ING-INF/04).

Finally, related training activities provide students with the knowledge necessary to independently understand:

• the circuit model and analyse its fundamental properties (ING-IND/31);
• the main analogue and digital circuits (ING-INF/01).
