Electronic Engineering MEng (Hons)

Our Electronic Engineering MEng course focuses on four key areas in electronics: circuits and systems, signal processing, computing and communication. You will develop in-depth knowledge of and practical expertise in circuit analysis and design, communication systems, computation and software programming for engineers, and hardware design, which will provide a foundation for senior roles in electronics, signal processing, and communication industries.

Key benefits

• Top 10 in the UK for Electronic Engineering (QS World Ranking by subject 2020).
• Unique combination of electronic engineering, computer science and robotics modules.
• You'll benefit from our longstanding links with various companies, including Orange, Vodafone, Nokia, NEC, BT and Texas Instruments.
• You’ll build specialist skills which open up wide ranging careers in technology, telecommunications, biotech and financial engineering.
• You’ll be learning from world-leading experts in their field in state-of-the-art facilities.

Our course will provide you with a deep understanding of electronic engineering and design techniques. The diverse nature of our course will give you a strong foundation in electronic engineering along with general control and computer systems. There is also a strong focus on developing mathematical skills, which you will use to analyse the performance of communication and control systems. You will study modules across electronic circuits, hardware design, telecommunication networks, introduction to robotics, and foundations of computing, with optional modules specialising in digital signal processing, robotic systems, optical communications, and other advanced topics. This course will challenge you to think more broadly, translating electronic engineering into everyday life through pattern recognition and cryptography, and telecommunication networks. The fourth and final year of your MEng degree will provide further opportunities for you to deepen and apply your specialist knowledge.

Employability
