MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering with Industrial Studies
About this course
Electrical and electronic engineering sits at the heart of the modern world, underpinning the power systems, communications networks, smart devices, and electronic control systems that contemporary society depends on. The discipline spans from the design of individual electronic components and circuits through the architecture of complex systems to the management of large-scale infrastructure, requiring engineers who can think both at the level of fundamental physics and at the scale of industrial deployment. The industrial studies dimension adds management skills and broader professional development, preparing graduates for leadership as well as technical roles. At the University of Southampton, this five-year, full-time programme is built on a master's-level foundation that develops both specialist engineering expertise and the management capabilities needed to lead in the industry. Southampton's electrical and electronic engineering programmes are known for their breadth and depth, and the industrial studies element allows you to explore specialist modules alongside the management knowledge that employers increasingly expect from senior engineers. You will study across the core areas of the discipline, developing rigorous analytical and design skills that can be applied to the full range of problems electrical and electronic engineers encounter. A typical entry tariff of 168 points reflects the high academic standard expected for this programme. Graduates from electrical and electronic engineering MEng programmes with industrial studies are well placed for roles in power generation and distribution, telecommunications, aerospace and automotive engineering, consumer electronics, medical technology, industrial automation, and management of engineering organisations. The combined technical and management qualification is particularly valued for those who intend to move into senior or leadership roles in engineering practice. Professional registration as a chartered engineer is a standard long-term goal. Many graduates also continue to doctoral study or research in areas where Southampton's strong research base supports advanced investigation.
