Master's Programme in ICT Innovation
The Master’s Programme in ICT Innovation (EIT Digital Master School) is a European double degree programme for students who want to learn about both the technical and business aspects of information and communications technology. The programme syllabus binds together solid technical courses in computer science and software engineering with business development skills. Backed by EIT Digital, one of the knowledge and innovation communities of European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), the programme offers study opportunities at top universities in nine European countries. The two-year Master's programme is completed by studying at two of these universities, both eventually awarding a Master's degree to their graduates. At Aalto University, The Master’s Programme in ICT Innovation is organized jointly by the School of Science and the School of Electrical Engineering. The programme is coordinated by the School of Science.
Aalto University offers four academic majors in the programme:
- Autonomous Systems and Intelligent Robots (AUSIR)
- Cloud and Network Infrastructures and High-Performance Computing (CNIHPC)
- Data Science (DSC)
- Human-Computer Interaction and Design (HCID)
All majors include the Innovation & Entrepreneurship Minor.

Autonomous Systems and Intelligent Robots - ICT Innovation (EIT Digital Master School), Master of Science (Technology)
From self-driving cars to robotic assistants, the Internet of Things, and AI-based software solutions – the future is autonomous. However, as an emerging technology, autonomous systems hold both opportunities and risks. The key to navigating this potential minefield is to not only understand the technology itself but, more importantly, be able to confidently evaluate autonomous processes and maximise the trade-off between business impact and resources spent.
Cloud and Network Infrastructures and High-Performance Computing - ICT Innovation (EIT Digital Master School), Master of Science (Technology)
When our networks became overwhelmed with connected devices and streaming services, cloud computing saved the day. Now, the so-called ‘cloudification’ of networks is set to unleash a new era of smart connectivity – enabling everything from Industry 4.0 applications to autonomous vehicles, 5G and 6G, augmented reality, and urban infrastructure. With the increase of digitalization, we need more focus on efficient and distributed computation in the form of high-performance computing.
Data Science - ICT Innovation (EIT Digital Master School), Master of Science (Technology)
The Data Science Master’s offers a unique two-year academic programme, where students study data science, innovation and entrepreneurship at two different leading European universities.
Human-Computer Interaction and Design - ICT Innovation (EIT Digital Master School), Master of Science (Technology)
The Human-Computer Interaction and Design (HCID) master’s programme is an interdisciplinary programme where our User-Centred Design approach places the users at the centre of the design process. By combining human aspects to technological and business aspects, we create new products and services with great usability and user experience.
