Electrical and Electronic Engineering with a Year Abroad - MEng (Hons)

University of Nottingham

Electrical and electronic engineers design, develop, test and oversee a vast array of technologies that underpin modern life. This course will give you the skills to design, create and utilise a broad range of technologies that are central to modern industrial, commercial and communications fields. Subjects range from the traditional and renewable systems used to generate, process and apply power, to the hardware systems of satellites, drones, electric cars and robotics. This course also covers the underpinning software and electronics used in smartphones, computers, AI systems and healthcare technologies. Accredited by the [Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET)](https://www.theiet.org/), this course delivers strong graduate outcomes and competitive starting salaries. Our integrated master's degree provides the professional expertise you need for a successful career in engineering or in a variety of other professions. Through a combination of lecture material and extensive lab-based projects, working individually and in small teams, you will build the numerical, analytical and technical knowledge and skills to meet the engineering challenges of the future.  While initially covering a common program of study, on this course, you will undertake a significant industrial stakeholder led practical project in year three to give you experience of customer led practical engineering design, with input from industrial advisors and academic subject experts. During your second year, you can study at either our [China or Malaysia campus](https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/currentstudents/study-abroad/index.aspx) where you will have the opportunity to continue your academic studies, whilst experiencing  a new culture and environment. You will be taught in English from the same curriculum as the UK course and will have dedicated pastoral support. This course offers significant flexibility to transfer to any other EEE strand after joining, where this is possible.
