About

Study with us

industry-supported scholarships programme
throughout the course, you'll undertake technical projects linked to engineering companies and international research activities in topics including clean energy, cybersecurity and 5G communications
options to study abroad or take part in our solar energy projects in Africa

I spent year 4 studying abroad at the University of Girona in Spain. This really opened my eyes to the engineering opportunities that exist beyond the UK and gave me some great life experiences - making friends from other nations, discovering new cultures and learning to work with different people.

Why this course?

Electronic & electrical engineering is at the heart of everything we do - from renewable energy and smart grids, to high-speed fibre-optic broadband, digital sound and vision, and internet security.

Electronic & electrical engineers are the people who design, build, operate and maintain our global power systems, our telecommunications networks and computing infrastructure, and develop electronic systems essential to industry, health and entertainment.

Their aim is to find innovative and progressive solutions to today’s global challenges. That might be technologies to deliver clean energy, systems to improve audio and image quality on your phone, tablet and laptop, or techniques to improve digital imagery in medical devices to aid diagnosis.

International experience and studying abroad are highly valued by employers. You’ll study the core electronic and electrical engineering curriculum but with a full year at a partner university overseas. You’ll learn fundamental technical knowledge and relevant analytical skills. You can also take language classes to prepare for your year abroad.

Career

Careers

Studying electronic & electrical engineering opens many doors. The breadth of this degree ensures that graduates will have the technical knowledge and understanding across the entire electronic & electrical engineering spectrum to consider careers in a diverse range of sectors including:

telecommunications
consumer & electronics design
automotive & aerospace industries
information technology
finance & banking
electricity supply industry
oil & gas
renewable energy
project management & engineering consultancy
healthcare

Many of our graduates secure well-paid and exciting jobs or are in further study by the time they finish their degree. They take positions including electronics engineer, subsea engineer and process & pipeline engineer. Employers include BAE Systems, Accenture, BP, Thales, ScottishPower and Rolls-Royce.

The careers services run within the department definitely aided in securing a job. I attended assessment centre sessions as well the mock psychometric test sessions which certainly helped when it came to the real thing.
