About the course
Reasons to study
- Flexibility - in our Electronic and Electrical Engineering subject area, all our degree programmes share the same first year of study, which means you can leave your options open until the start of your second year.
- Enhance your employability - past students have spent their placement year at companies, for example, Nissan, Bosch, Sellafield Ltd and Intel.
- Prepare for your future career - in your first and second year, you'll study through EnABLE (Engineering in an Activity Based Learning Environment), working in small teams to solve real engineering problems, just like engineers do in industry.
This programme is not available to international students. Instead, international students should apply for our international foundation programmes delivered by our International Study Centre on campus. For more information please visit International Study Centre.
Electronic and electrical engineering is behind the technologies that have driven the global economy for decades and society needs electronic and electrical engineers of the future to be innovative and adventurous.
Our integrated foundation degrees are for those of you who possess the capability to pursue a degree but do not have the pre-requisite qualifications to directly apply to your desired course, it leads onto our accredited BEng(Hons). The duration of the foundation element is one year and if you successfully pass, you will automatically progress on to the degree.
This course provides you with the skills to convert theory into practice so that you could become an innovator of the future. Electronic and electrical engineering doesn't just lead to a career, it's a gateway to improved prospects, increased earning potential, and the ability to shape your own path in this crucial industry. The systems created by this vital industry keep society running and creative talent is needed to ensure these systems are maintained in an ethical and sustainable manner.
You’ll be taught by academics who are also professional engineers, many of whom have years of industry and research experience. We cover the generation, distribution, application and control of electrical energy.
Why study Electronic and Electrical Engineering BEng(Hons) at Huddersfield?
Our aim is to provide you the knowledge and skills to succeed in this fast-paced sector, careers in this industry could include Electronic Engineer, Systems Engineer, Control Systems and Instrumentation Design Engineer or Application Design Engineer. We'll explore the principal aspects of electronic and electrical engineering, investigating areas such as, sustainable power generation, integrated electronic and electrical systems and performance and electronic control of electric machines.
In our Electronic and Electrical Engineering subject area, our degree programmes share the same first year of study, so you can leave your options open until the start of your third year.
In your fourth year, you’ll have the opportunity to take part in an optional industry work placement, where you’ll put your knowledge into practice and boost your employability. In your final year you will work on a selected individual research/design project with the support of your academic supervisor. It is possible to align this with one of the Master's team projects, which involve the design, build and friendly competitive testing of either a road, airborne or rail vehicle, for example, Team HARE, Team Hawk or HudRail
During year two and three, you'll take part in our EnABLE (Engineering in an Activity Based Learning Environment) initiative. This sees you work in small teams to solve real engineering problems. EnABLE reflects how real engineering departments operate, which could boost your employability when undertaking an optional industrial placement and when securing your first graduate role post-university.
