The BEng (Hons) Electrical and Electronic Engineering (Apprenticeship) is distinctive in that it teaches the theory of electrical and electronic engineering coupled with the required software tools and systems engineering approach to design and enable graduates to tackle complex engineering projects that are common place in our society.

 

This course focuses especially on low current and lower power electronic engineering whilst still maintaining the core balance with electrical engineering. A mixed analogue and digital signal approach is followed during the second year.  In the third year the course tackles Communication Systems and Wireless, Biomedical Electronics and Embedded Systems and The Internet of Things, at a depth appropriate for electronics specialists in the industry. It culminates in a systems-based approach in the final stages bringing together knowledge accrued both in the analogue and digital systems domains.

 

The overall aim of this course is to produce Engineers who hold a qualification that meets the educational requirements of the relevant Professional Engineering Institution for registration at the appropriate level (fully satisfies the academic requirements for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partially satisfies the requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer) and also meet the requirements of the Embedded Electronic Systems Design and Development Engineer apprenticeship standard.
