    Electrical and Electronic Engineering

    About

    Electrical and electronic engineering touches on almost every aspect of modern life, from communications to electrical power distribution and health care. If you want to maintain and develop new technologies for our ever-changing world, this course will prepare you to do so. Demand for engineers is high, and this course combines academic studies with practical applications of engineering design to give you the technical and personal skills you will need to succeed as a professional engineer. This three-year course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) with Partial Chartered Engineering status (Partial CEng). However, please bear in mind that our 1-year top-up course is not accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology.
    On this electrical and electronic engineering degree, we will teach you how to produce practical and innovative solutions to a variety of engineering problems. From day one you will be developing electronic circuits, from prototype design through to fully assembled PCBs (printed circuit boards). The optional modules will give you the flexibility to focus on your chosen career path in fields such as: electrical or electronic engineering power engineering communication systems analogue systems digital systems. The final year project will give you the opportunity to consider an engineering problem in-depth and apply your knowledge. This will give you valuable experience in applying both your technical and professional skills. Practical laboratory sessions will help you put the taught theory into practice. You will have access to two large multipurpose electronics laboratories which provide specialist resources for electrical, electronics, communications and control and where you will be able to work with engineering-specific software such as OrCAD, AutoCAD, Inventor, MATLAB and LABVIEW. We aim to create an environment where all students feel welcome. Our teaching staff are experts in their fields and they are dedicated to supporting your development in this exciting area of engineering.

    How to Apply

    You can apply online at any time by following the link below. Our application form will ask you for some information about your previous qualifications or experience, references, and how we can contact you. In addition, you are required to submit a start-up idea pitch. This 500-word (max) document should clearly outline the following three aspects: a brief description of your business idea that you want to further develop during your MA studies in what capacity you have worked on the business idea so far (eg has this developed from your final year project during your undergraduate degree? Are you running the business already out of your living room? etc) where you expect the business to go by the end of the MA programme (specific objectives for the 12 month period). Please upload this document along with your online application. Based on your application form and the start-up idea pitch, you will be invited to attend a telephone interview.
