Our BEng and MEng programmes draw upon this excellent academic research. We’re proud to be at the forefront of areas such as: Mobile and wireless communications, Multimedia engineering, Nanotechnology, Space satellite engineering, Vision and signal processing. You’ll also have the opportunity to take part in our award-winning Professional Training placements scheme, which prepares students for roles in a variety of technology-based sectors. On our BEng and MEng programmes, you’ll focus on applying theory to real-world engineering problems and technologies in our well-equipped laboratories. Throughout your course, you’ll be exposed to the latest developments in electronic engineering through high-quality teaching and excellent facilities. You can apply to study for either a BEng or MEng. The MEng builds on the BEng with a masters year and is a direct route to a masters qualification. Depending on your progress, you may have the option to switch to a BEng or MEng during your studies.We offer careers information, advice and guidance to all students whilst studying with us, which is extended to our alumni for three years after leaving the University. Over the last decade, our employment figures have been among the best in the UK, with 90 per cent of our electrical and electronic engineering undergraduate students going on to employment or further study (Graduate Outcomes survey 2023). Studying for a degree in electronic engineering doesn’t just lead to a rewarding career. It offers an intellectually demanding and exciting opportunity to make new discoveries through research. Our graduate electronic engineers are in demand not only in research and development, but also in technical sales, management, and government and public services. They have a consistently strong record of gaining employment with leading companies across the electronics, information technology and communications industries.
