About this course

Bachelor of Engineering in Electronic Engineering, an electrical and electronic engineering degree focused on the creation and analysis of modern hardware and software systems. 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 includes a substantial individual project split across two phases in the final year and holds professional accreditation from the Institution of Engineering and Technology. The first year covers fundamental principles through modules such as Circuits, Digital Systems, Electronic Systems and Devices, and Programming, alongside dedicated laboratory and mathematical training. The second year advances technical capabilities with modules including Applied Electromagnetism, Communications, Control and Systems Engineering, and Electronic and Computer Systems. In the third year, students undertake an individual project and choose from a broad selection of optional modules covering areas such as advanced computer architecture, machine learning, green electronics, and quantum technologies.
