Information Technology (in English): Smart IoT Systems: IoT and Networks
Code: TXL24S1
Descriptions
The extent of the engineering education is 240 ECTS credits. The first year of studies is organized in software-oriented and hardware-oriented study themes. They provide fundamental knowledge and skills in the field of ICT and introduce the study paths in Information Technology Degree Programme. This enables students to choose the most suitable study path for them. Professional studies, project studies, mathematics, physics as well as English language and communication studies are integrated in the courses to enable phenomenon-based learning. Finnish courses are offered as separate courses. The first year of studies aims to build a solid theoretical and technological base for professional studies.
Students will choose their professional major at the end of their first-year studies and during the 2nd study year, students will focus on developing their professional competence. IT Degree Programme offers two majors:
- Software Engineering. Towards the end of their studies, students have a possibility to deepen their knowledge towards mobile development or machine learning and neural networks.
- Smart IoT Systems. Students have a possibility to deepen their knowledge towards Embedded IoT Devices or IoT and Networks.
The 3rd year of studies will begin with professional studies which will deepen students’ engineering skills and theoretical knowledge of the major. During work placement, students will apply knowledge and skills to practice and are able to further develop their professional competence.
The final, 4th year of studies will provide the multidisciplinary innovation project which is a project often completed in a multidisciplinary project team requiring strong engineering skills and team working skills. The learning process will culminate in the Final Year Project (Bachelor’s Thesis).
Structure of the degree (240 ECTS):
- Orientation to Information Technology 60 ECTS
- Fundamental Professional Studies 30 ECTS
- Advanced Professional Studies 60 ECTS
- Common Professional Studies 30 ECTS
- Elective Studies 15 ECTS
- Work Placement 30 ECTS
- Bachelor's Thesis 15 ECTS
The content of the studies is based on working life and partly phenomenon-based learning. Some of the studies, where applicable, are connected to Metropolia's innovation hubs and multidisciplinary projects there. The implementation of the courses will take into account the principles of sustainable development where applicable. Students can also complete some of their studies as an exchange student in international partner universities.

Description
This major gives you an insight to the embedded computer systems and cloud services including Internet of Things. After one semester of fundamental professional studies, students can focus more in detail to the smart embedded devices or to the cloud services and communication technologies. IoT and Networks: IoT and Networks studies give student an insight to the world of computer network technologies, server systems and cloud services. You can put the learnt theory into practice in our data communication laboratory, which is based on IP-networking, server systems and mobile networks. Courses developed in co-operation with the leading networking equipment manufacturers give excellent skill set for secure network and server system design, implementation and maintaining. Graduates may work in various ICT related positions such as a project manager, network specialist, cloud system administrator, ICT security specialist or technical specialist.
