BEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering
About this course
Electrical and electronic engineering is the discipline that underlies the digital and electrified world: from the power systems that deliver electricity to homes and businesses to the microprocessors at the heart of every connected device, electrical and electronic engineers design, develop, and maintain the systems on which modern life depends. The discipline encompasses circuit design, power engineering, signal processing, control systems, telecommunications, biomedical electronics, and the Internet of Things, and it is evolving rapidly as electrification, digitalisation, and connectivity continue to transform industries. At London South Bank University, this three-year full-time Electronic Engineering BEng programme includes a foundation year for those who need additional scientific and mathematical preparation, and a sandwich placement year with work placement opportunities. The programme focuses on analysing, designing, developing, and maintaining electrical control systems, microprocessor systems, biomedical and telecommunication systems, and Internet of Things applications. Teaching is informed by real-life practical applications through industrial links, ensuring the curriculum connects to professional practice. You will graduate with specialist skills and knowledge that are directly applicable to a professional career across the wide field of electrical, electronics, and computer systems engineering. You will develop theoretical and practical engineering skills, competence in industry-relevant tools and methodologies, and the professional awareness needed to work in engineering teams on complex systems projects. Graduates from electrical and electronic engineering programmes pursue careers in power systems, telecommunications, aerospace, defence, medical technology, industrial automation, consumer electronics, and technology consulting. The placement year frequently leads to direct employment. Professional development towards Chartered Engineer status is a common goal. Postgraduate study in a specialist engineering discipline is available for those seeking advanced roles.
