About this course
MEng, BEng in Electronic and Electrical Engineering is an electrical and electronic engineering degree focused on the principles and applications of modern electronic systems. Core topics include Systems Design, Circuit Design, Computer Architecture, Embedded Systems, Signal Processing, and Control Systems. The fourth year features an industry-based group project and specific pathways in electronics, communications or electrical engineering. The first year covers core subjects through Circuit Analysis and Design, Physics of Electronic Devices, Digital Electronics and Microcontrollers, and Electronic Design Project. The second year progresses to Electronic Circuit and Systems design, Transistors and Optoelectronic Devices, Communications Theory, and Embedded Systems Project. The third year involves modules such as RF and Microwave Systems, Electric Machines, Control Systems, and an Individual Engineering Project. The fourth year concludes with advanced studies including Modern Industry Practice, Team Engineering Project, Digital Signal Processing, and Control Systems Design.
