This programme covers a wide range of topics in electronics & electrical engineering. It will enable you, as a graduate engineer, to be employed in a large number of industries, from power engineering to nanoelectronics, radar and telecommunication systems to the design of digital technology. Studying Electronics & Electrical Engineering prepares you for a wide range of professional careers. As a graduate engineer you will be able to deal with anything from power engineering to microelectronics, radar installations to the design of digital systems.You will undertake a team design project in which the complete design process of an item of electronic equipment is carried out, from the initial specification to the completed productOur BEng and MEng degrees are accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology.Throughout the year this society hosts a variety of events from social meetups to industry and career building events. All students are encouraged to attend these as they provide unique opportunities: whether it be a fun night out with fellow engineers of all disciplines, or a chance to talk to practicing engineers in a familiar and comfortable environment. The society provides a chance for our students to relax during the busy semesters alongside fellow students.Each year the James Watt School of Engineering participates in the highly renowned, ten-month long ''Formula Student'' programme. Run by the Institute of Mechanical Engineering (IMechE), this is an exciting and unique chance for students from across our engineering disciplines to join forces to construct a single-seat racing car. The design and build culminates in a race at the world-famous Silverstone track, against more than 300 teams from across the globe. The competition nurtures students’ management, marketing and technical skills as well as offering specialised engineering and motorsport industry experience. The school recognises the substantial value of this activity and provides considerable technical and financial support for it.Graduates have been employed, among many others, by: McLaren, Cadence, Leonardo, Cirrus Logic, Nordic Semiconductors, Analog Devices.
