About this course
Master of Engineering in Electrical Engineering, an electrical and electronic engineering degree centred on large-scale electricity generation, control, and distribution. Core topics include Programming, Systems Design, Circuit Design, Computer Architecture, Embedded Systems, Signal Processing, and Microelectronics. Students complete individual projects across two phases in the third year alongside a group design project, and the curriculum provides an accredited path toward professional registration as a chartered engineer. The first year covers fundamental groundwork through compulsory modules such as Circuits, Digital Systems, ELEC Part One Laboratory Programme, Electronic Systems and Devices, Engineering Mathematics, Fields, Forces and Materials, Introduction to Signals, Control and Communications, Mathematics, and Programming. The second year progresses into advanced mechanics and electrical theory with Applied Electromagnetism, Control and Systems Engineering, Design, Electrical Machines and Drives, Electrical and Mechanical Materials, Power Circuits and Transmission, Signal Processing, and Simulation and Modelling for Electrical Engineering. Third-year studies feature compulsory modules including High Voltage Engineering, Part III Individual Project Phase 1, Part III Individual Project Phase 2, and Power Systems Technology. Optional modules in the later stages allow specialisation in areas such as advanced differential equations, biosensors, control system design, robotics, power electronics, and health technologies.
