Course introduction
Electronic engineers create, build, evaluate, and supervise the production of diverse technologies ranging from drones and electric vehicles to smartphone components, navigation systems, and medical equipment.
Our program provides multiple avenues to expand your electronics knowledge. You'll engage in laboratory projects, working both independently and collaboratively in small groups. You'll develop project management skills and apply technical expertise to solve various challenges.
In your second year, you may study at our China or Malaysia campus, immersing yourself in different cultures while following the identical UK curriculum delivered in English. This year focuses on core subjects, with optional modules available based on your chosen specializations.
As electronics technology continuously evolves, you'll graduate prepared to innovate and advance future electronic systems. Our program equips you with engineering skills applicable to various professional fields.
All electrical and electronic engineering undergraduates begin with a shared curriculum, maintaining flexibility to switch programs until the end of their second year. Options to include or remove study abroad and industry placement years remain available after enrollment. By year three, you can focus on specialized areas aligning with your career goals.
