BSc (Eng) Electronic and Electrical Engineering

This part-time engineering course is aimed at students who have the potential and motivation to become competent professional engineers but are unable to commit to full-time study.

You will be provided with the knowledge and skills needed to confidently develop, manage, operate and maintain complex engineering processes and systems.

The course is offered on a part-time evening class basis at years 2 and 3 only and is specifically designed for entrants with an HNC or HND in the appropriate discipline.  

Each stage of the course is split into ‘a' and ‘b' sections which are delivered in alternate years, therefore, each stage takes two years to complete. You will attend classes two evenings per week and benefit from small practical classes and tutorial groups led by staff with experience in both industry and the academic environment.
