BEng (Hons) Electrical and Electronic Engineering with Foundation Year
Covering the latest practices and theories in engineering, our BEng (Hons) in Electrical and Electronic Engineering with Foundation Year provides essential knowledge and skills for entry into this global profession.
The Foundation Year offers a solid grounding in engineering fundamentals, electronics, and mathematics, preparing you for degree-level study. During this initial year, you'll explore introductory concepts across various engineering subjects, including mechanics, mathematics, and electrical/electronic engineering, equipping you for the increasingly cross-disciplinary nature of engineering.
The rapid growth of the technology sector has led to heightened demand for creative, skilled engineers both nationally and internationally. Many global electronics organizations have research and development facilities in the UK and Europe, with opportunities for UK-based engineers to work on international projects.
This four-year degree program, delivered in partnership with the University of Bolton, provides the engineering-related knowledge and practical skills needed for a professional career in engineering. Alongside developing your technical skillset, we will help you build lifelong learning skills to reflect on, articulate, and apply them in everyday life. In your final year, you will also have the opportunity to choose from several optional modules, such as renewable energies and advanced embedded systems.
