Design of Computing Systems

This specialization track gives you a systemic approach combining hardware and software architecture for secure and dependable digital systems.
Objective

Educate general engineers in the design of new digital systems. Digital engineering emphasizes reliability grounded in the operating safety and security of systems.

Course content:

•   Software design
•   Networks
•   Compilation
•   Distributed computing and virtualization
•   Software modeling
•   Simulation of systems

Une spécialité informatique qui accompagne la digitalisation des entreprises dans de nombreux domaines : industrie du futur, système de défense, aéronautique, web, bancaire, finance, etc…

Systems approach

In this major, students will acquire skills in: 

  • Digital architectures (microcontrollers, microprocessors, dedicated accelerators, reconfigurable circuits, VHDL)
  • IT (object-oriented design and programming, programming and operating systems, networks, operations research, compilation, modeling, Full-stack web technology, verification and testing)
  • Systems approach (methods, requirements, modeling, functional safety, interfaces and behavior)
  • Security (as related to the above disciplines and at a systems level)
  • Project-based teaching: Teams, working with industry partners, apply the Agile method to build full system prototypes. Some projects are linked to research professors' R&D work.
Training that responds to the needs of the industry

Through their study of digital circuits, IT and security, graduates of this program will have the full palette of skills sought by firms in numerous sectors: transports (air, sea, road), Web services, Banking, Finance, Assurance, etc.

Earn a double degree

Students in this major can choose to simultaneously follow the Interactive, Intelligent and Autonomous Systems track of the Master in Computer Science jointly offered by ENSTA Bretagne and establishments in the UBL (Université Bretagne Loire) network.
