ABOUT
Develop expert level skills in electronic and electrical engineering and engineering management. Specialise in digital and analogue electronics, industrial control systems design and electrical power systems and machines. Graduate with the necessary skills to work in electrical supply, power systems, manufacturing, utilities, or the automotive, aviation and medical sectors.
Overview
This course is closely linked to the needs of the automotive, aerospace, medical and power generation industries.
The course will cover a range of topics at the cutting edge of the discipline using the latest digital tools. Topics will cover core aspects of Electronic Engineering along with their application in design and manufacturing. The project will also develop research skills and you will learn to apply these to apply the latest technologies to real and current engineering problems.
Project work will be a strong focus of the course and you will learn interactively by applying the skills you develop using our recently upgraded laboratory facilities.
Why us?
- You will have access to industry-standard software to support your studies
- Recent significant investment in Engineering laboratories
- Engineering graduates can soon earn between £20,000 and £30,000 a year
