Computer Engineering

Software Systems Specialist

This professional deals with the design and development of applications and services based on software technologies. S/he interprets the requirements of the application domain from a functional, technological, organisational, security and regulatory point of view. Contributes to the definition of specifications for the various design and implementation phases. Participates in security analyses to identify risks and privacy mechanisms and processes. It deals with the design, coding, testing and maintenance of the architectural, software and system components of the product or service to be implemented.

Data Analysis Systems Specialist

This professional deals with the design and development of systems that operate on large amounts of data for machine learning, knowledge extraction, and optimisation of specific business and organisational functions. They determine the methods of data collection, use and analysis based on the requirements of the application domain and regulatory constraints. Contributes to the definition of specifications for the various design and implementation phases. Contributes to security analyses to identify risks and identify data protection mechanisms and procedures. Determines the most appropriate algorithms, analysis methods and validation of results for the context. Participates in the design, coding, testing and maintenance of the necessary software components.

Autonomous Systems Engineer

This profession is suitable for a wide range of contexts, from the management of industrial drones to autonomous driving of vehicles and collaborative robots in work environments. Experts in this field carefully analyse problem specifications, create a 'digital twin' of the system for simulation and validation, and design control algorithms based on mathematical models and artificial intelligence. These control algorithms aim to maximise performance while ensuring the robust safety of autonomous systems and the people involved in their operation. During development, informed technology choices are made with a focus on effectiveness, efficiency and cost. The management of communication with sensors and actuators also focuses on the security of the information transmitted, with particular attention to potential threats and vulnerabilities. Finally, the software produced is designed and implemented in accordance with the necessary ISO standards.

Computer systems designers for fixed and mobile networks

These professionals create, design, optimise, modify, develop and test computer systems, infrastructures and networks used for the acquisition, processing and transport of information and its use in multimedia applications and public and private remote monitoring and communication services.

Hardware and Firmware System Designers

These professionals design, optimise, modify, develop and test the hardware and firmware structures that underpin modern electronic systems (PCs, tablets, smartphones, IoT systems, medical devices, control units for cars, aircraft, drones, robots and measurement devices).
