Electrical and Electronic Engineering

87% of our engineering research has been evaluated as internationally excellent or world leading

Gain a career advantage by developing practical and transferrable engineering skills using cutting-edge technologies to solve real-world problems. Grasp the opportunity to join our BEng (Hons) Electrical and Electronic Engineering course to prepare yourself for one of the world’s most in-demand professions.

Learn about the design, fabrication and use of a wide range of electronics, circuits, devices and power systems. Our dedicated state-of-the-art Electrical and Electronic laboratories include:

• Plastic Electronic Laboratory
• Renewable Energy Laboratory
• Power Systems and Electrical Machines Laboratory
• Embedded Systems Laboratory
• Control and Simulation Laboratory

Our Electrical and Electronic Engineering degree offers flexible pathways to specialise your learning in Electrical Engineering, or Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering.

The Electrical pathway is focused on electrical rotating machines, power system analysis and power electronics for power generation, transmission, distribution, and supply industries.

The Electronic and Telecommunication pathway is focused on the design and development of innovative solutions for a wide range of engineering problems by utilising embedded systems and evolving communication techniques.

Both pathways also provide deep knowledge and understanding of emerging technologies in control systems, semiconductor devices, and renewable energies allowing you the opportunity to gain transferrable skills required in consumer electronics, power systems, transport, medical, and defence industries.

In Year 1, your learning will closely mirror our other engineering degrees (Aeronautical, Mechatronics etc.) to ensure you have a solid grounding in engineering principles.

In Year 2 you’ll specialise in areas such as advanced electrical and electronic simulation and control. BEng (Hons) students can also take an optional industrial placement. This is a great chance to develop your employability skills and get you ready for potential graduate roles. Our close links with many high profile companies mean that we can help secure placements.

In Year 3 you will complete a substantial engineering project. You will also get the chance to present your work to industry and the public at the annual GradEX event.

The course operates on a modular basis that provides flexibility and choice. Typically the modules are 30 or 15 academic credits. Each credit taken equates to a total study time of around 10 hours. Total study time includes scheduled teaching, independent study and assessment activity. Full-time students take modules worth 60 credits per semester, with part-time students taking proportionately fewer credits per semester. All students take a total of 120 credits per level and 360 credits for the degree as a whole. Your overall grade for the course and your degree classification are based on the marks obtained for modules taken at levels 5 and 6.  The full-time course has one start point in September.
