We’ll also encourage you to look at technology within the wider business, commercial and legal context. You’ll explore: * Digital and analogue system integration * Digital signal processing * AM and FM detectors * Aerials and satellite communications * Digital radio and TV. The course also covers Internet of Things, the interconnection via the Internet of computing devices embedded in everyday objects, enabling them to send and receive data - a technology of the future for electronic and communication engineers. There are plenty of opportunities for you to engage in practical work on the course and you also have the chance to undertake a project on a suitable topic of your choice. This course is aimed to prepare you to find a job in this dynamic and exciting industry.
