What you study

Communication systems engineering deals with how data is transmitted between different components, from communication between individual components (such as communication between a mobile phone and a base station) to large communication systems networks. Students receive training in systems design and management, network performance analysis, optimization, and more. Courses in the degree include mathematics, physics, electrical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, and industrial engineering and management, as well as specialized courses in communication systems and networks, such as computer communication networks, embedded systems, advanced protocols, distributed algorithms, information theory, operating systems, network programming, and more.

After the degree

What graduates work as

  • Software Developmentmost commonResearching, analyzing, and evaluating requirements for software applications. Designing, developing, testing, and maintaining software solutions that meet those requirements.
  • Application ProgrammingWriting and maintaining code for software applications and operating systems.
  • Communications EngineeringResearch, planning, and direction of the construction, operation, maintenance, and repair of communication systems and equipment, and advising on these matters. Study of the technological aspects of materials, products, and processes.

Which industries they work in

  • Computer programming, computer consulting, and other related services57%
  • Scientific Research and Development25%

Employment rate above average: 89% of graduates are employed 3–4 years after completing their studies(average across all institutions)

Graduates’ salaries are above average 40,000 ₪ average monthly salary 5–6 years after graduation(average across all institutions)
