Duration: Four years full-time, five years sandwich Imagine a world without electricity or electronic devices. It is easy to see why electrical and electronic engineering is vital to our survival and the development of future technologies. Electronic engineers play a vital role in the design, development, distribution and eventual recycling of numerous everyday products. As a result, qualified electrical and electronic engineers are in demand. This course is developed alongside the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) and major partner employers. This means that you will graduate with the skills and knowledge to go into a successful career in this dynamic sector. You will study digital and analogue electronics, mathematics and computer programming, and the application of electronics in a range of environments. As you progress, you will examine signal processing, micro-controllers, communications, control systems and digital hardware design. Alongside, you will develop professional skills in project planning, group work and communication.

Demand for graduates with expertise in electrical and electronic engineering is high. On graduation, you can go on to a career designing electrical and electronic systems; working on consumer technology; or solving engineering problems for communications and power generation/distribution companies. You could also work for companies in technology, manufacturing, transport and rail, aviation and a host of other industries.
