Course overview

Recent scientific and technical innovations means electronic engineers are central to the design and manufacture of a vast range of products and systems.

Our Electronic Engineering degree draws on both industrial and academic experience to provide skills that are aligned with best commercial practices and much sought after by employers.

By choosing the MEng degree you can explore specialist areas of Electronic Engineering through fourth-year core and optional module choices and a group project.

Our graduates are well placed to contribute within a variety of sectors in addition to electronic engineering, such as design and production, energy, transport, the built environment, information and communications.

Important information

We are planning to make some changes to this degree for 2024 entry. Changes to core and optional modules go through the University's rigorous academic processes. As changes are confirmed, we will update the course information on this webpage. It is therefore very important that you check this webpage for the latest information before you apply and prior to accepting an offer. Sign up to receive updates.Link opens in a new window


Study abroad

You may choose to take an intercalated year in industry, research or study abroadLink opens in a new window between years two and three (BEng and MEng), or between years three and four (MEng only). If you choose to take an intercalated year, this will be reflected in your degree title, and add a year to your degree programme.

Core modules

We offer flexible degree programmes that enable you to experience a range of different engineering disciplines before you decide to specialise.

All first year students study a general engineering programme, which is much favoured by industry. From second year onwards you can specialise in one of nine engineering disciplines, or continue on the general Engineering pathway. If you then choose to specialise in Electronic Engineering, you will continue to study the same modules as those on the Electrical and Electronic Engineering programme during the second year except for the Design Project module which will be different.

The later years of the degree reflect our key research areas including communications, embedded systems, power electronics, ASICs and silicon-based smart sensors. Practical work in electronic engineering begins in the first year, with the third-year individual project forming an important part of the course. Past individual project titles, supported by industry, include ‘A Mobile Phone Based Electronic Nose’ that analyses the breath of patients in local hospitals and ‘Delivering Satellites to Space with Power Electronics’.

You can also switch from the three-year BEng to the four-year MEng if academic requirements and regulations are met. Alternatively, you can switch from the MEng to the BEng if you prefer to graduate earlier.

Engineering Business Management and Professional Skills

Materials for Engineering

As an Engineer, you will be required to evaluate and select appropriate materials and manufacturing processes, whilst taking due account of performance, cost and sustainability. During this module you will learn to distinguish the main classes of materials, explain how their structure affects their properties, and describe how their structure can be manipulated to enhance those properties. You will make decisions on the appropriateness of materials for a particular design and justify your choices, as well as being able to evaluate their environmental impact.

Engineering Structures

Systems Modelling, Simulation and Computation

Systems modelling is an essential skill that underpins all engineering disciplines, allowing complex engineering problems to be approximated using mathematical models. Systems modelling provides necessary information to make decisions in the design and development of engineering solutions or to investigate systems that are too costly, difficult or unethical to investigate physically. This module focuses on the design and programming of models from first principles by the application of mathematical techniques and avoidance of modelling errors. You will learn how to: represent multi-domain systems graphically, derive models from data, construct a simulation model to predict system responses, and consider design principles that ensure robust model development (covering verification and validation techniques).
