The first year comprises the Year 1 English for Academic Purposes (EAP) programme, designed to give you the necessary skills in all four language areas (reading, writing, listening and speaking). This is carefully integrated with the content modules in Physics, Engineering Mathematics and Further Mathematics to fully prepare you for years 2-4 of the degree.

The second year introduces students to the pillars of electrical and electronic engineering, with modules such as Analogue Electronics, Digital Electronics, Software Engineering, and Professional Practice.

The third year progresses into the discipline, with in-depth courses on Linear Electronics, Digital and Embedded Systems, Instrumentation, Communication Systems, and Electric Machines. Advanced Engineering Mathematics is also a part of the curriculum at this stage.

The programme's final year brings more specialised modules like Automation and loT, Engineering Management, Process Control, and Power Electronics. Students undertake a final-year project to consolidate their learning and apply their knowledge in a practical context.

You will participate in lectures, supplemented by small-group tutorials, led by our experienced academic staff. These tutorials will provide a platform to develop further and discuss your thoughts and ideas. Our teaching approach is interactive, encouraging active participation and engagement. All modules have an online component via our virtual learning environment, which provides access to numerous online resources. This allows you to learn at your own pace, fitting your studies into your personal schedule.

The evaluation of your knowledge and comprehension typically involves a mix of examinations and coursework. Some subjects may incorporate alternative assessment methods like online class tests. An integral part of your academic journey is the final year project. This project offers an opportunity for you to work autonomously under the mentorship of your supervisor, significantly contributing to your final grade.

In addition to traditional manufacturing roles, Electronics and Control Engineers often find employment in support of sales and marketing, as well as progressing to technical, managerial, and commercial leadership positions. Small and large organisations value a robust technical understanding and potent interpersonal skills - attributes fostered by our Electrical and Electronic Engineering degree. This comprehensive set of skills opens up various career avenues for our graduates, including consultancies, governmental agencies, and public utilities.
