BEng Electronic Engineering

This course is ideal for candidates who wish to pursue a career as an electronic systems designer. The first year of all the degrees covers the basics of electrical engineering science, mathematics and computer programming. Year 2 deepens your knowledge in specific areas of electronic design, including embedded systems. The final year allows you to broaden out into areas such as image processing or robotics or power electronics for alternative energy resources. There is an extensive use of design-based laboratory and project work to support the lectures. Management and business studies are taught and an option exists to take a modern foreign language in the final year.

We offer a four-year version of this degree programme (H612) in which you spend your third year in industry.
