MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering with a Year in Industry

Electrical and electronic engineering is one of the broadest engineering disciplines and uses cutting-edge technology to address some of the major concerns of the modern world. There is a growing demand for skilled graduates to work in industries such as consumer electronics, alternative energy and transport, medical engineering, and communications.

This degree provides the opportunity to spend your third year in an industrial environment applying the knowledge gained in your first two years of study. There is no direct entry to this course but you can transfer from MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering during year two if you reach a high academic standard and are successful at interview with industry. Places are limited and highly competitive.

Years one and two provide a strong grounding in mathematics, computing, analogue and digital electronics, communications, electromagnetics, electronic systems, and control.

Year four includes a group design project and specialist units in electrical, electronic and communication subjects.

In year five you will undertake an individual project and choose from a wide variety of optional taught units which are informed by the latest technological developments and underpinned by research-informed teaching.
