Course Description
Electronic and electrical engineers invent and create the technology that typifies today's high-tech society, and this four-year programme provides a thorough coverage of the theory, devices and systems that underpin it. Applying for the MEng provides the most flexibility with the opportunity to specialise at the end of year two.
-
You will benefit from the intellectual challenge and stimulation deriving from our world-class research.
-
You will have access to state-of-the-art software and instruments in our extensive teaching laboratories. We offer professional practice sessions, a three-day residential course, and opportunities for team work.
-
The degree is part of an integrated programme across engineering providing you with opportunities to broaden your horizons through interactions with other disciplines. There is also the flexibility to add a specialism to your MEng programme towards the end of year two, to match your evolving interests.
