Design, operate and build electronic systems for the space environment. Gain the engineering skills needed for a career in the space industry. Our course takes you beyond the engineering difficulties of designing equipment for use on Earths surface. Instead, you'll develop the skills needed to design and build systems and platforms for the hostile environment of space.Your first two years introduce you to elements of project management, engineering processes, professional practice ethics and sustainability. Because of a common course structure, you can switch between our electronic and electrical engineering BEng and MEng degrees and decide whether you want to go on placement up until the end of your second year.
