Imagine a world without electricity or electronic devices. It is easy to see why electrical and electronic engineering is vital to our survival and the development of future technologies. Electronic engineers play a vital role in the design, development, distribution and eventual recycling of numerous everyday products. As a result, qualified electrical and electronic engineers are in demand.
This course is developed alongside the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) and major partner employers. This means that you will graduate with the skills and knowledge to go into a successful career in this dynamic sector.
You will study digital and analogue electronics, mathematics and computer programming, and the application of electronics in a range of environments. As you progress, you will examine signal processing, micro-controllers, communications, control systems and digital hardware design. Alongside, you will develop professional skills in project planning, group work and communication.
Students who do a work placement are more likely to graduate with a better degree and get higher quality work on graduation. So as well as helping hone your professional skills, industry knowledge and network, a placement will make you highly employable on graduation. We work with major partner employers and have strong relationships with Rolls Royce, NPower and smaller local consultancies. These provide work placements ranging from CAD focused to all-round engineering roles. Past students have worked on electronic systems for next generation Range Rovers. Others have developed fuel systems for Airbus. Employers are impressed with the calibre of our students and often offer them work on graduation. |
