**Overview** Electronic engineering powers the world we live in today. From games consoles, smartphones and fitness trackers to life-saving medical systems, cyber security and self-driving cars. On this course, you’ll learn to design, develop and manufacture electronic equipment and devices that could have a significant impact on the world. Develop your knowledge of the theory and design of electronics while putting theory into practice in our extensive facilities. Electronic technology evolves rapidly. Be part of the future on a course that opens doors to a career as a professional electronics engineer. **BEng or MEng?** You can study this course as a 3-year Bachelor's degree (BEng) or a 4-year integrated Master's degree (MEng). When you finish the BEng course successfully, you'll meet the educational requirements for Incorporated Engineer (IEng) status. Once you've met the work experience requirements for IEng status, you can progress to Chartered Engineer status (CEng) with further study and experience. The MEng allows you to achieve a Master’s level degree with just one extra year of undergraduate study. When you finish the MEng course successfully, you'll meet the educational requirements for Chartered Engineer status (CEng). IEng and CEng status demonstrate your expertise and can include benefits such as improved career prospects and earning potential. **Course highlights** - Use the latest equipment for analysing and measuring electronics, including logic analysers, spectrum analysers, digital scopes and multi-function generators - Work with analogue and digital components such as microprocessors, microcontrollers and programmable devices - Use experimental kits, such as ServoSET servo-mechanism (which helps you learn how to stabilise systems) and superheterodyne radio receivers (which help you understand the principles of radio receiver operation) - Get student membership of the Institute of Engineering and Technology, at no cost to you – giving you access to practical, technical and career-related resources, and opportunities to build links with prospective employers - Work on a multidisciplinary group project to get the practical experience sought by employers when you choose the 4-year MEng option **Careers and opportunities** The demand for innovation in medical technology devices, and consumer electronics such as mobile phones and televisions is always increasing. In fact, all engineering roles are listed in the UK Government’s 'skills shortage list' – which means engineers are currently in high demand. So not surprisingly, 90% of our BEng graduates and 95% of our MEng graduates are in work or further study after completing their course. With electronic engineering professionals in high demand, graduates of our MEng course are earning £39,500 a year on average, 5 years after graduation. Our graduates have worked for companies such as: - Thales - QinetiQ - Barnbrook Systems - Royal Navy - Network Rail - Flylogix - NXP Semiconductors Our graduates now work in roles including: - communications and information systems engineer - digital design engineer - electronic design engineer - graduate signalling and telecoms engineer - hardware design engineer - service application consultant Other graduates have continued their studies at postgraduate level or set up successful businesses with help and support from the University. **Placement opportunities** After your second year, you can do an optional work placement year to get valuable longer-term work experience in the industry. A placement year gives you an advantage over other graduates who may understand theory but won't have the experience of applying their learning to a working environment. We’ll help you secure a work placement that fits your aspirations, and you’ll get mentoring and support throughout the year.

Year 1 Core modules in this year include: - Engineering Sciences - Introduction to Algorithms and Programming - Introduction to Analogue Circuits - Mathematical Principles - Principles of Digital Systems - Principles of Networked Systems There are no optional modules in this year. Year 2 Core modules in this year include: - Analogue Analysis and Design - Engineering Mathematics - Group Design Project - Microcontrollers and Programmable Logic Optional modules in this year currently include: - Control Systems Analysis - Modern Foreign Language - Telecommunication Principles Placement year (optional) After your second year, you can do an optional work placement year to get valuable longer-term work experience in the industry.Students have completed work placements at organisations including: XMOS Core, Airbus, Portsmouth Water, Spirent, IBM, Apollo Fire Detectors. Many students have gone on to work for their placement employer after the course. We’ll help you secure a work placement that fits your aspirations. You’ll get mentoring and support throughout the year. Year 3 Core modules in this year include: - Advanced Electronic Systems - Digital Signal Processing - Individual project Optional modules in this year include: - Artificial Intelligence or Real-time Embedded Systems - Control Systems Design or VHDL and FPGA Systems We use the best and most current research and professional practice alongside feedback from our students to make sure course content is relevant to your future career or further studies. Therefore, some course content may change over time to reflect changes in the discipline or industry and some optional modules may not run every year. If a module doesn’t run, we’ll let you know as soon as possible and help you choose an alternative module. Due to changing circumstances as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we may need to make changes to courses to ensure your safety and to ensure compliance with Government guidelines. We'll provide you with as much notice as possible of any such changes. Your course leader will inform you of these. Changes may include things such as modules being taught in teaching block 2 instead of teaching block 1 and teaching activities occurring in smaller group sizes.

You’ll be assessed through: - written examinations - coursework - practical tests - project work - presentations You’ll be able to test your skills and knowledge informally before you do assessments that count towards your final mark. You will get feedback on all formal assessments so you can improve in the future. The way you’re assessed may depend on the modules you select. As a guide, students on this course last year were typically assessed as follows: - Year 1 students: 55% by exam and 45% by coursework - Year 2 students: 62% by exam 38% by coursework - Year 3 students: 33% by exam and 67% by coursework
