With the new Internet revolution, we are moving from the interconnection of people and their mobile devices to the interconnection of all things, that is, technological evolution is leading us to an interconnection of all everyday objects, both at home, at work and in city services. All this thanks to a set of easily accessible and low-cost sensors, devices and communication protocols that are now available. As a result, objects are becoming part of the Internet, generating a new economy with a wealth of opportunities for business and for people's well-being.
It is estimated that by 2025 there will be more than 25 billion interconnected objects, which means that the Internet of Things (IoT) will continue to revolutionize companies, their processes and the way they relate to customers. Taking advantage of the new possibilities will be achievable only if there are specialized professionals who can lead this change in organizations.
The Master in Internet of Things of the UAEH is oriented to train future IoT managers in organizations, as well as to generate future entrepreneurial leaders, with a practical mastery of all phases of development of IoT projects, i.e., the detection of needs and value proposition according to new business models, the design of infrastructure and devices to connect, capture, transmission and secure storage of information, as well as the generation of value through the analysis of large volumes of data.
This master's degree has a laboratory specialized in IoT, where students can develop their prototypes and experiment, according to a methodology based on the solution of real problems. They will be guided by a teaching staff that has been formed by renowned professionals from the local, national and international environment, as well as from the corporations associated with this program, such as CISCO, Intel and others.
With all the knowledge, skills and values developed by the students of this master's degree, they will be able to lead IoT projects aimed at generating new business models, with products and services that increase the productivity of companies and improve the quality of life of people.
