Course programme

Course detail
This course includes a foundation year to provide a solid basis for your studies. There are practical laboratory sessions to complement the taught electrical and electronic theory. From day one, you will be developing electronic circuits from prototype design through to fully assembled PCBs.

There are practical laboratory sessions to complement the taught electrical and electronic theory and in the final year, students will select modules to help them develop their own specific engineering interests and chosen career path. When it comes to final year projects, students are encouraged to develop their own projects and where possible, to engage in a project collaboration with an industry partner.
