Explore the exciting space where electronic engineering meets computing to develop the computer systems our world needs now and in the future. Our course combines electronic engineering expertise with advanced knowledge of computer hardware and software skills. During your degree, you'll learn about modern computer systems, software engineering, artificial intelligence, and embedded programming. And you'll explore how you can use these in the context of a world and sector adapting to face the challenges of sustainability now and in the future.There is a lot of scope for creativity and problem solving in engineering and it's important to us that you can really explore the potential of your ideas. Working with the latest digital technology, you'll design systems such as embedded microprocessors and programmable integrated circuits. To make sure what you study is relevant beyond your degree, you'll also learn how to use industry standard programming and hardware design languages, operating systems and applications. The first two years of our four Computer Systems Engineering courses are the same. The units you'll study allow you to build on your technical knowledge to give you the skills and understanding of current challenges relevant to the workplace. These include areas such as engineering processes, professional practice, ethics, and sustainability. Because of the same course structures, you can move between BEng and MEng degrees and decide whether you want to take a professional placement year or not up until the end of your second year. Project work further develops your professional skills in teamwork, project management and self-management. It also allows you to flex your creativity and apply what you have learnt in a practical way. Through this mix of theory, technical work and professional skills, we aim to prepare you for a future in industry, research or whichever path you choose. Learn from experts in the fieldYou’ll learn from academics with expertise in electronic and electrical engineering. Their international collaborations and research activities feed into undergraduate teaching and contribute to your learning experience.Read about our areas of research specialism to find out what our academics are doing.Use specialist facilitiesOur Department has sophisticated teaching, project and fabrication laboratories that you’ll use during your degree. These include teaching laboratories, power and robotics laboratories, workshop and printed circuit board (PCB) production facilities, dedicated project workspaces and computer laboratories.

AA in two Advanced Highers including Mathematics and one other science or technology subject.We make offers based on Advanced Highers. You will typically be expected to have completed five Scottish Highers and your grades in these will be considered as part of your application. We prefer applicants who have achieved at least AAAAB in their Highers.
A pass the Access to HE Diploma (in Science or Engineering), with at least 36 credits achieved at Distinction and 3 credits achieved at Merit or above. This must include 12 credits from Mathematics units (including calculus) achieved at Distinction.
36 points overall and 6, 6, 6 or 7, 6, 5 in three Higher Level subjects including 6 in either HL Mathematics and 6 in one other science or technology subject.We accept Sports, Exercise and Health Science as a science subject for this course.Mathematics is required at Higher Level. In exceptional circumstances we may be able to consider you if you are studying a science or technology subject at Standard Level instead of Higher Level. Our typical offer in this instance would be 36 points overall with 6, 6, 5 in three Higher Level subjects including 6 in either HL Mathematics plus 7 in one science or technology subject at Standard Level.International Baccalaureate contextual offer:36 points overall and 6, 6, 5 in three Higher Level subjects including 6 in either HL Mathematics and 6 in one other science or technology subject.
D*D*D* in the Cambridge Technical Level 3 Extended Diploma including a Distinction in the Applied Maths for Engineering unit or D*DD in the Cambridge Technical Level 3 Extended Diploma plus grade A in A level Mathematics.We are able to consider the above qualifications in Engineering. If you are not taking an A level in Mathematics alongside your CTEC, then you must be studying and achieve a Distinction in the following units: Applied Maths for Engineering.It is preferable that you are studying Mathematics at A level. Your offer will be based on the type and level of qualifications that you are taking. If your application looks suitable and you are not studying an A level in Mathematics alongside your Cambridge Technical, then you may be invited to an interview as part of the selection process.In addition to our essential GCSE requirements in English, we also prefer you to have: grade 6 or B in GCSE Mathematics and two science subjects.
