We are a world-leading centre for electrical and electronic engineering, shaping the future of energy, healthcare, smart technology, security and communications.

We can take you to some surprising places — , , or the atmosphere of Mars.

We’re creating the technology that powers modern life, and advancing the science to drive innovations we haven’t imagined yet.

Your choice of degree courses and pathways

Our teaching is led by our research strengths and focuses on inspiring and supporting tomorrow’s industry-ready engineers.

We offer MEng and BEng degrees across two main subject areas:

  • Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE)
  • Electronic and Information Engineering (EIE)

Your first year of undergraduate study is designed to give you room to explore the breadth of electrical, electronic and information engineering topics, so you can take your time to choose a route that fits your developing skills and interests and make a really informed decision between the main subject degree paths.

Electrical and electronic engineering right now is characterised by its fast-evolving and inter-disciplinary nature, driving innovation across unlimited applications, and making it such an exciting and rewarding place for creative and talented problem-solvers.

What’s the difference between EEE and EIE subjects?

Whichever pathway you choose, you’ll develop the software design and coding skills essential to
modern technology, alongside a strong foundation in maths, physics and the electronic and electrical engineering that underpins it.

EEE focuses on electrical and electronic engineering, from the physics of electrons and
electricmagnetism to transistors, sensors, wireless communication and electrical power systems.

EIE has a computing and information engineering focus, covering microprocessors and embedded
systems, through to mobile devices, servers and networks.
