Course Summary

Develop your technical and critical thinking skills and prepare for an exciting career at the cutting edge of engineering, with our Electronics and Robotics degree course. Our BEng (Hons) Electronics and Robotics is designed to put you at the forefront of today’s engineering world. Placing an emphasis on Industry 4.0 concepts such as digital tools for engineering, the internet of things (IoT), and systematic, project-based approaches, it’ll equip you with skills and knowledge that are in high demand among employers. Electronics and robotics engineers are required to think originally and critically; work innovatively, creatively and sustainably; and consider the social, commercial, legal and environmental impacts of their work. Throughout the course, you’ll have opportunities to practice these skills, making you well-prepared to enter the workplace when you graduate. Study with ARU in Chelmsford or Peterborough and from day one, you’ll work on real-world embedded systems and microelectronic and robotics engineering projects. You’ll gain experience of every aspect of the development of smart connected electronics and robotics systems today, helping you to discover where your talents and interests lie and determine how you want to use your degree. You’ll learn how to design, code, analyse, optimise and manufacture products, refining your mathematical, scientific and technical skills along the way. Frequently working on projects with your peers, you’ll also gain experience of different roles and develop essential presentation, teamworking, and leadership skills. There's also the opportunity to gain valubale work experience with an optional placement year in industry.
