Digital Systems and Design will make you an expert at the intersection between electrical engineering and design, with the hands-on skills to lead in your field.
Research infrastructure
Experimental work is the key for achievements in science. Our department is proud to offer state-of-the-art infrastructures that enable us to conduct internationally distinguished research. Department of Electronics and Nanoengineering (ELE) conducts research and offers education in three sites introduced below, as well as at MilliLab, a joint laboratory with VTT and ESA, offering device measurement and testing capabilities up to THz frequencies.
Aalto Electronics-ICT
In the Aalto Electronics-ICT we conduct research in microelectronics, antenna and microwave engineering and space technology.
Micronova
Micronova is part of OtaNano - Finland's national research infrastructure for micro- and nanotechnology, jointly run by VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and Aalto University.
Metsähovi Radio Observatory
Metsähovi Radio Observatory is the only astronomical radio observatory in Finland. Metsähovi’s main instrument is the 14-metre radio telescope, which is used around the clock, every day of the year. Its observational data is used, e.g., for studying active galaxies, the Sun, and the rotation of the Earth.
