Electronic Engineering with Photonics, MEng (Hons)

This four-year MEng in Electronic Engineering with Photonics equips students with specialised knowledge in designing and fabricating optical fibres, semiconductor light sources, and detectors, emphasising practical industrial applications of photonics. Drawing from the University of Southampton's renowned Optoelectronics Research Centre, the programme covers key topics such as optical communications, nanoelectronic devices, photonic materials, and digital transmission. In the third and fourth years, students engage in a group project addressing real industry challenges, enhancing both technical and management skills, alongside an individual research project.Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Southampton consistently ranks in the UK's top five (e.g., Guardian University Guide). With investments like £8 million in teaching labs and a £100 million clean room complex, the programme prepares graduates for diverse careers through strong employer links, career support, and accreditations from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), UK Electronics Skills Foundation, and IET Power Academy. The curriculum allows flexibility, with core modules in the first two years and optional specialisations thereafter, assessed via exams, tests, and practical exercises.
