Course overview

This Electronic Engineering and Internet of Things BEng is supported by several specialised laboratories in general electronics, IoT, high frequency communications, computer-aided design (CAD), embedded systems and digital systems and opto-electronics.

When studying any of our specialised modules you’ll spend a considerable part of the module in laboratories, to provide you with an opportunity to practise what you learn in your lectures and seminar sessions. Using an industry-standard simulation package, you’ll investigate, design, implement, test and document a variety of real-world examples of electronics and communications systems. These sessions are performed individually or as part of a group.
