Electronic and Electrical Engineering

This four-year MEng explores how electronic and electrical systems underpin modern technology, from compact embedded devices to large power plants. Students begin with a general engineering year shared with all School of Engineering students, which builds a broad understanding of how engineering disciplines work together. In the second and third years, the focus narrows to electronic and electrical topics, including power engineering, communications, analogue circuits and digital design. Learners design, build and test real systems in newly built engineering facilities, alongside project management and professional skills training. The final stage adds advanced study with an emphasis on sustainability, safety, ethics and quality control. Research collaborations with CERN and ESA, along with industry engagement, prepare graduates for professional engineering roles. Graduates can also progress to postgraduate study.
