Program Overview

International Master in Intelligent Communicating Systems (ICS)

The Master in Intelligent Communicating Systems is designed for students interested in the intersection of communication systems, cyber-security, sensing, artificial intelligence (AI), and eco-design towards connected intelligence. It prepares graduates to excel in innovative and technology-driven energy-efficient and secure connectivity.

Presentation

The Master in Intelligent Communicating Systems at the University of Rennes is a one-year international program designed for advanced students in engineering or in master. We directly admit students into the second year of the Master (M2), allowing them to complete the full program in a single academic year. The curriculum is structured around six months of advanced theoretical courses followed by a six-month internship in industry or research. At the end of the program, students are awarded an international Master's degree from the University of Rennes.
