Key course features

• This course will help to prepare students for fast-changing roles in E&E Engineering.
• Specialism's within the programme feature modern power electronics and drive systems, combined with their controlling mechanisms and modelling, using MATLAB and state-space models.
• You will study the design, modelling and test algorithms for complex assemblies, and learn how to analyse circuit designs for both low and high frequencies.
• Software development is also an integral part of a modern E&E Engineers' role and to support this, software tools such as VEE, MULTISIM and MATLAB are used extensively in the course.

Why choose this course?

Electrical and Electronic Engineering is now an important part of many cutting-edge industries.

• In the automotive industry, Electronic and Electrical Engineers are required to design engine control units, dashboard indicators, air-conditioning, safety, braking, and infotainment systems.
• They are also involved with signalling and advanced railway control systems, as well as telecoms for mobile phone applications. There are also many roles for them in the energy industries, designing and running complex control systems such as those needed to run the National Grid or to control a nuclear power station.
• Electronic and Electrical Engineering graduates are also desired for the fast-moving consumer goods industry, such as in the development of the latest smart screens and the use of intelligent transducers in both industrial and home automation environments.
