Masters Degree in DSP

Hi all

I have recently graduated from a BSc in Audio Tech and found the DSP
module fascinating.

Does anybody know where do they teach Postgraduate courses focused on
DSP. My options are open so anywhere in the world would suit me.

Cheers

I enjoyed Georgia Tech in Atlanta.  When I went the cost of living
there was very low and a Graduate Assistant could graduate with more
money than they had when they started, and no loans.  That was 27
years ago, so take the money part for what it is worth.

At the time not many schools offered a DSP program, but that is not
true any longer, they are all over.  Just look around.

Almost any good department of electrical / electronics
engineering has courses focused on DSP at the masters
level.  MIT, Berkeley, Stanford, Michigan, UIUC, Rice,
Imperial College, EPFL, Supelec, National University of
Singapore, etc etc etc etc.

Don't you have any constraints or preferences, academic
or otherwise? :-)

Hi Julius.
Thanks for your help.

Let�s say Im more keen to go to the west coast of the US, Australia
and possibly Spain. Or any other European country where the course is
taught in English or Spanish.

... and by the way I have strong financial constraints but I can try
to go around those with some sort of scholarship.

Not sure how to google it. I try DSP Postgraduate or DSP MAsters and I
don�t seem to get a great deal. Only this course in London but I�ve
just lived there for 2 years and NOT planning to go back any time
soon.

cheers
Sergio

For audio stuff, two very good programs are CRRMA at Stanford
and CNMAT at UC Berkeley in the west coast.

It's hard to make recommendations without knowing specifically
what you are interested in.  But if you're going to do only a masters,
be prepared to find your own scholarship (universities in the US
are not likely to sponsor masters-only candidates), and pick places
where there are a lot of classes, such as Stanford, UCLA, USC.
Places like Berkeley are really great for doctoral-level DSP research,
but they are very research-focused, when I was there there weren't
so many classes.  Look at their schedules of classes, because a lot
of times the course listing is big, but they are only run once every 2
years.

Good luck shopping ;-).

What you are looking for is now often just another specialization in a
Masters Degree program in Electrical Engineering or a closely related
field (maybe something like Computer and Electrical
Engineering, ...).  Pick an area, find schools in that area that offer
an engineering program.  Look on their web sites and see what they
have in DSP.  Like I said before, this is no longer an uncommon
specialization.

Hello,

i was recently searching for an MSc at DSP in Europe. 
I spent a lot of hours in the websites of different universities
in different countries. Three universities seemed to me to have pure
DSP MSc programms:

1. Imperial College London
2. University of Edinburgh
3. King's College London

In fact King's College has 3 different MSc programms all for DSP:
a. communications dsp
b. multimedia dsp
c. pure dsp

The other two (Imperial and Edinburgh) have also a lot of communications
dsp. 

N.

If you are interested in Canada, google "uvic" and "mistic". It is a
EE+CS+Music, you can't go wrong.

The funding might be a bit tight, though.

I wonder what pure dsp would be like.  No applications?

Think in analogies:

a. representational art
b. abstract art
c. pure art

See how simple it is? :-)
