Study plan
The graduate program has a flexible curricular structure that allows students to enroll in courses that address their concerns and meet their educational needs within a framework that focuses on attaining objectives, developing the final project, and meeting the program's graduate profile.
The Study plan is divided into three curricular areas: Fundamentals; Research, Development and Innovation (RDI); and Electives.
FUNDAMENTALS
The courses in this area define the academic field and the program's identity, and relate to the Lines of Generation and Application of Knowledge (LGAC's, in their initials in Spanish).
RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND INNOVATION (RDI).
This area is closely related to the Advisory Support System. Its purpose is to accompany students in their process of defining, developing, writing and presenting their final projects. Students will receive group and personal advisory sessions called RDI courses.
ELECTIVES
The purpose of this area is to give students the chance to dialogue with other fields of knowledge outside of their own discipline, in order to generate knowledge and solve problems related to their project and object of study. This area draws on courses from all ITESO graduate programs and from other universities that have a collaboration agreement with ITESO.

All fundamentals courses and the elective course are worth 8 credits, distributed as follows: 3 hours under teacher supervision + 5 hours of independent student work
All RDI seminars are worth 4 credits, distributed as follows: 3 hours of independent student work + 2 hours under teacher supervision.
* The following list includes other elective courses that can be taken depending on the project requirements and tutor's authorization:
(E1) Integrated Circuit Testing
(E2) Integrated Digital Circuit Design
(E3) Advanced Topics in Integrated Analogue Circuit Design
(E4) Advanced Integrated Analogue Circuit Design
(E5) Advanced Topics in VLSI Design
(E6) System-on-Chip (SoC) Architectures
(E7) Other courses from graduate programs in engineering sciences at ITESO
Of this group of elective courses, (E1), (E2), and (E3) have been inherited from the previous program (EDCI) (Specialization in Integrated Circuit Design, in its initials in Spanish), and are currently taught in the Master's Degree in Electronic Design, while (E4) and (E5) were created specifically for EDSEC. The fundamentals courses F1 and F2 were inherited from EDCI and are currently taught in the Master's Degree in Electronic Design. F3 was created specifically for EDSEC.
