Bachelor in Electronics & Electrical Engineering with Microelectronics (dual degree with UESTC) BEng

Tuition fees are 24,772 GBP per year.

Overview

Electronics and Electrical Engineering touches all aspects of contemporary life, from power generation and global telecommunications to robotics, automation, and modern entertainment industries. This programme is key to designing systems that improve healthcare, create energy-efficient solutions to combat climate change, and regulate renewable power sources such as wind, wave, and solar energy.

Students develop the capacity to design optimal systems that sense, transmit, and process information, as well as those that generate and control power. A distinctive feature of this programme is the practical emphasis, including a 3rd-year team project to design complex autonomous electronic systems and a 4th-year individual project that may involve working in industry on a novel engineering problem.

Who this is for

The programme is ideal for students seeking a strong foundation in electronic and electrical devices, circuits, and systems, with a pathway to specialize in areas like high-frequency integrated circuits, digital signal processing, and optoelectronic devices.
