Develop essential engineering knowledge and skills and prepare for a successful career in a fast-moving industry.
Electronic and electrical engineers are at the forefront of the challenge to connect our world: from designing and building more efficient and affordable technology, to providing a more robust and green energy network, helping us live better, healthier, smarter and more sustainably.
With an emphasis on Industry 4.0 concepts, learn the latest developments and techniques in a variety of cutting-edge areas of engineering, such as Digital Signal Processing (DSP), robotics, AI, internet of things (IoT), power electronics and sustainable technologies, so you'll graduate well-prepared to enter the workplace.
You’ll carry out four phases of an engineering project: design, analyse, build and test. Through this project-based, hands-on approach, you’ll develop the technical skills and associated knowledge you need to work in the engineering sector, with an emphasis on embedded systems and remotely controlled wireless systems.
You’ll also learn about broader factors that all engineers have to consider, including the economic, social and environmental impact of your work.
