About this program
Computing: Electrical and Electronic Engineering (BEng)
Graduates from this programme will be equipped with skills and knowledge at the forefront of their discipline to meet the specialised needs of industry, thus enhancing graduate employability.
This programme is designed to enhance industrial relevance by focusing on the practical application of theory whilst maintaining academic rigour.
This BEng course will develop knowledge of both the electrical and electronic engineering needed for modern industrial organisations.
Students study fundamental electrical and electronic principles, microprocessors and mathematic. Electronics coverage includes circuit design, digital signal processing, power electronics and electronic system design.
The programme also covers electrical concepts, such as the theory of electrical principles, and electrical machines and drives. A subset of the electronics theme is embedded systems development, and this is supported by an introduction to computer programming, computer engineering and microprocessors. The instrumentation and control of electrical equipment is also addressed.
