Electronic and Electrical Engineering, BEng (Hons)

Electricity is essential to contemporary society, with growing demands from electrified transport, data centres, and IT devices driving greater dependence on power electronics technologies. Electrical and Electronic Engineers play a crucial role in tackling these challenges. This course explores key principles, circuits, systems, and solutions across disciplines like power electronics, motor drives, renewable energies, energy generation and distribution, smart grids, and energy management. Students engage in individual and group projects throughout their studies to build practical, organisational, management, and business skills, while gaining the flexibility to specialise in areas of interest. Graduates emerge equipped to excel as researchers, expert designers, or technical managers in the dynamic field of electrical engineering.All courses offer an optional year in industry, typically before the final year, providing valuable workplace experience and career insights. The school assists in securing placements and offers ongoing support through academic staff who visit and meet regularly to review progress.
