About this course
Master of Engineering in Electronic Engineering with Computer Systems, a degree centred on electrical and electronic engineering and computer science. Core topics include Programming, Systems Design, Circuit Design, Computer Architecture, Embedded Systems, Signal Processing, Microelectronics, Control Systems, Statistics, Mathematical Modelling, Research Methods, Project Management, Engineering Design, Critical & Analytical Thinking, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. This four-year integrated master's programme is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology to fully meet the academic requirement for professional registration as a Chartered Engineer. Year one establishes fundamental concepts through modules such as Circuits, Digital Systems, Electronic Systems and Devices, and Engineering Mathematics, covering underlying physical properties, programming, and mathematical techniques. Year two advances technical knowledge with Applied Electromagnetism, Control and Systems Engineering, Electronic and Computer Systems, and Signal Processing, exploring operating systems and system control. In year three, students undertake the Part III Individual Project Phase 1 and Part III Individual Project Phase 2 alongside optional choices spanning subjects like Advanced Computer Architecture, Biosensors and Diagnostics, and Foundations of Machine Learning. The final year includes compulsory practical work through Group Design Project and Industrial Studies, complemented by advanced optional modules such as Advanced Micro and Nanosystems, Computer Vision (MSc), Cryptography, and Intelligent Mobile Robotics.
