You study computing and electronic systems, while concentrating on the principles of electronic engineering. You also gain an appreciation of company structure and quality control. The course includes specifics about systems applications, and software and hardware technologies. Other studies include computer modelling and mathematics for electronic engineering. You learn the principal themes of * digital and analogue electronics * electronic systems design * signal processing * engineering analysis. These themes support further study of specialist applications of electronics to computer, communication and control systems. You can also design and build working devices, and evaluate commercial electronic products. The course is vocational and produces engineers who can meet the needs of the wide range of industries that use new technology. The ever developing application of technology means there is a growing demand for engineering graduates. All students take the first year core modules. These provide a common foundation of engineering principles, knowledge and key skills, while addressing the areas of engineering applications and personal skills development.
