about DisplayMasters

Display Technology is one of the fastest moving and exciting fields in electronics today. In a multi-billion dollar marketplace extraordinary devices are being developed that are transforming mobile communications devices, aircraft cockpits, virtual reality, home entertainment …the list is almost endless. The Displays field has been identified by the UK department of Trade and Industry (DTI)as an area with critical skills shortages. The DisplayMasters programme has been designed with the help of leading industrialists and academics to help create a new generation of Display Technologists, Engineers, Scientists and Managers capable of creating, understanding , developing and exploiting this explosion of 21st century technologies. DisplayMasters is a unique consortium of seven leading UK Universities. The Masters degree, postgraduate certificate and diploma qualifications are awarded by the University of Dundee, in collaboration with the Universities of Cambridge, Edinburgh, Napier, Abertay Dundee, Oxford, and Nottingham Trent. The blend of participating Universities are intended to reflect different areas of displays expertise at the highest level, and the courses are tailored to meet the individual needs of everyone from recent graduates, professionals wishing to update their skills, and scientists and engineers looking for structured career development in a displays-specific context. At the core of DisplayMasters are eight one-week short courses hosted by the partner universities. Each of these complementary modules has been designed to provide the student or casual delegate with the very best training and educational facilities. The short courses provide a comprehensive mix of lectures, tutorials, informal seminars, laboratory classes, exhibitions, site visits, and feedback sessions. Module attendees will have the opportunity to meet with world-leading academic, industrial and commercial speakers in friendly and informal surroundings.
