Engineering (Electrical) Top Up - BEng (Hons)

Loughborough College

Sheffield Hallam University validates the 1-year BEng (Hons) (Electrical, Electronic) degree course. It provides students with the opportunity to develop and enhance their knowledge and practical skills required to pursue a career in their chosen engineering discipline within the industry.Our approach offers a combination of online/ distance learning for independent engineering project supervision (industrial project) and a weekly day attendance for the more rigorous academic topics, ideal for those balancing their studies alongside professional and personal commitments.The program complies with the Institution of Engineering and Technology awarding body’s accreditation criteria. Thus, provides the students with an all-around knowledge of the subject and an improved opportunity to develop towards charted status and future career development.The courses emphasize the application of engineering principles to real-world problems, incorporating sustainable, environmental, and ethical implications, equipping students with the ability to design, analyse, and implement either electrical and electronic, mechanical, or manufacturing solutions to complex problems.Additionally, students explore emerging technologies and industrial trends, ensuring they are well-prepared to adapt to the rapidly evolving technologies within engineering.Upon successful completion of the program, graduates are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and qualifications necessary to pursue a wide range of career opportunities within the field of engineering. They could further their studies through postgraduate research and professional certifications enhancing career prospects.With many practical and hands-on learning experiences, incorporated within the academic delivery, including experimental and advanced software analysis systems, involving laboratory equipment: -- Electrical oscilloscopes,- Power and current supplies and sources- Single-phase and 3-phase kit- Digital logic- PLC kit- Control systems equipment and controllers- VR studio (in development)- SolidWorks (Electrical/Mechanical)- Multisim and Lab view- Testing equipment- Robotic systems -turtle bot waffle3- Raspberry Pie- 3D Printers- ANSYS Research Licences includes, FEA, CFD etc.- Ansys Electrical, Electronics and Electromagnetics- VR studio (in development)- SolidWorks- MATLAB- Simulink with multiple applications for 90 studentsUpon successful completion of the program, graduates are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and qualifications necessary to pursue a wide range of career opportunities in areas such as power generation, electronics design, and renewable energy. After completing the programmes students can work in a variety of industries and roles as :- Electrical engineers- Electrical systems design engineers- Electronic design engineers- Electronic engineer- Manufacturing PCB engineer- Control and instrumentation engineer- Power engineer- Work towards chartered engineer statusThey could further their studies through postgraduate research and professional certifications enhancing career prospects.
