Communication Systems

Communication systems are an integral component of modern life and industry—from telecommunications and internet systems, through to complex satellite communications for aviation, maritime and defence. Communication systems engineers design and manage complex systems, such as emergency communications for first responders, tactical response for defence, radio communications and more.

Our Communication Systems major gives you the skills to design and manage complex hardware and software, such as mobile, Internet and broadcast networks, satellite communications and infrastructure systems.

As an electrical and electronics engineer with specialist communication systems skills, you’ll be in-demand for a variety of careers across a vast range of industries, including defence, telecommunications and government, as well as in corporate and management consultancy settings.
