Computer Systems Engineering

This course offers opportunities to work on the design of smart devices, embedded systems and advanced electronics, helping you develop your skills in this field.

Design and develop intelligent systems that integrate hardware and software, with applications in areas like robotics, smart cities and automation. You'll have the opportunity for hands-on experience with modern technologies used in real-world engineering solutions.

Key features:

• Hands-on learning with industry-standard tools: gain practical experience in embedded systems, electronics and programming using labs and real-world project work.

• Focus on emerging technologies: explore robotics, artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT) and smart system design.

• Integrated master's (MEng) with undergraduate fees: progress to the master's degree (subject to meeting progression criteria) through an integrated pathway that includes advanced content and leadership-focused study, designed to help support your development and career goals.

Why you should study this course

• Industry-relevant skills: master hardware/software integration, AI, IoT, and embedded systems through embedded practical lab sessions and group projects.

• Hands-on learning: access embedded training in PCB design, soldering and robotics in purpose-built labs4, plus optional extracurriculars like robot racing competitions.

• Strong employer links: benefit from guest lectures, placement opportunities and projects with industry collaborators, who have previously included ARM and Bosch.

• MEng route: upon successful completion of the first three years, you may have the opportunity to advance to the master's part of this course, providing you with greater insight into computer systems engineering (subject to meeting progression requirements).

• Team-based and individual projects: build your portfolio through design challenges that reflect real engineering problems and solutions.
