Electrical and Electronic Engineering, BEng (Hons)

Electrical and Electronic Engineering is essential to modern life, underpinning everything from mobile phones and computing to healthcare equipment, automotive systems, renewable energy, and infrastructure. Without electricity and electronics, contemporary society would be unimaginable. A single integrated circuit can house billions of transistors in a tiny space, enabling remarkable innovations. This course provides a comprehensive foundation in the principles needed to design, develop, and integrate electrical and electronic systems across various industries.The first two years of both BEng and MEng programs share a core curriculum in engineering fundamentals, digital systems, and programming, emphasizing practical problem-solving. The MEng extends into the third and fourth years with advanced specialization, additional business management modules, and deeper exploration of selected topics. High-performing BEng students may transfer to the MEng. Assessment includes coursework and exams, with projects involving reports and presentations. The program is accredited by professional bodies such as the Institution of Engineering and Technology, enhancing qualification recognition.
