Our MSc Electronic Engineering enables you to acquire the essential knowledge, skills, competency, and critical awareness necessary for a rewarding career in the electronics industry. We prepare you to work in analogue and digital circuit design, an area with a major skills shortage worldwide and particularly in the UK.
The content of our course is far-reaching and includes theory, practice, simulation and realisation underpinned by our 40 years of expertise in electronics and telecommunications.
Our course brings together our teaching, research, and industrial contacts to form a vocational offering with enhanced postgraduate employability. You will be equipped with skills in the areas of:
analogue and digital design
CAD and IC design
time and frequency domain analysis
fault analysis
embedded processing
DSPs and fast prototyping
All of your acquired knowledge culminates in a project which sees the design, simulation, construction, testing and manufacture of a complex electronic system aimed at the industrial or consumer markets.
Our School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering is a community of scholars leading the way in technological research and development. Today's electronic engineers are creative people who are focused and committed, yet restless and experimental. We are home to many of the world's top engineers, and our work is driven by creativity and imagination as well as technical excellence. That's why we are ranked 6th in the UK for research power in computer science (Times Higher Education research power measure, Research Excellence Framework 2021).
