About this course
Bachelor of Engineering in Aerospace Electronic Engineering, an electrical and electronic engineering degree focused on electronics and avionics for aircraft and spacecraft. Core topics include Programming, Systems Design, Circuit Design, Computer Architecture, Embedded Systems, Signal Processing, Microelectronics, Control Systems, Statistics, Mathematical Modelling, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. The programme is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology to fully meet the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partly for a Chartered Engineer. The first year establishes fundamental foundations through compulsory modules such as Circuits, Digital Systems, Electronic Systems and Devices, Engineering Mathematics, Fields, Forces and Materials, Introduction to Signals, Control and Communications, Mathematics, and Programming. The second year develops more advanced technical knowledge with modules including Aerospace Simulation and Modelling, Applied Electromagnetism, Communications, Control and Systems Engineering, Design, Electrical Machines and Drives, Flight Mechanics and Aerospace Systems Engineering, and Signal Processing. The final year focuses on advanced applications and independent work through compulsory modules like Guidance, Navigation and Control, Part III Individual Project Phase 1, Part III Individual Project Phase 2, Radar Techniques and Applications, and Space Systems Engineering. Students can also tailor their studies by choosing from various optional modules covering advanced mathematics, biological sensors, digital control, robotics, cyber physical systems, and wireless communications.
