Tallinn University of Technology

Thomas Johann Seebeck Department of Electronics

Structure and Council

Study Centre for Electronics and Communication Engineering coordinates teaching in Hardware Design and Programming (BSc) 
and Communicative Electronics (MSc) programmes. The Centre participates in interdisciplinary cooperation with other TalTech 
study programmes as well as with TalTech Open University

Future electronics has cognitive functions deeply embedded within and this integration bases on WSN, RFID and NFC, IoT and ohter solutions. R&D in smart embedded and energy efficient electronics is increasingly important and its visible number permanently is growing. To development of new and up-grade of existing core competences at the Thomas Johann Seebeck Department of Electronics the Horizon 2020 ERA-chair Grant Agreement number: 668995 — “Cognitive Electronics COEL“ —H2020-WIDESPREAD-2014-2 project frames are applied for development and design of new architectures and platforms with improved yield sensor technologies with an efficient communication techniques for autonomous systems including RFID and NFC solutions.
