Course summary
Electrical and electronic engineering is one of the broadest engineering disciplines and uses cutting-edge technology to address some of the major concerns of the modern world. There is a growing demand for skilled graduates to work in industries such as consumer electronics, alternative energy and transport, medical engineering, and communications.
Years one and two provide a strong grounding in mathematics, computing, analogue and digital electronics, communications, electromagnetics, electronic systems, and control.
You will spend your third year abroad at a partner university following a similar curriculum to the one taught in Bristol. To find out more about studying abroad, visit Centre for Study Abroad.
In the fourth year, you will undertake an individual project and have access to a selection of optional units allowing you to specialise your expertise.
Through our close collaboration with the industry, you will benefit from excellent employment prospects. Recent graduate employers include Intel, BBC, Dyson, Jaguar Land Rover, Siemens, Hewlett-Packard, EDF Energy and many others.
Following substantial changes to the degree programme to bring it in alignment with current technology and the skills which are most desirable to potential employers it will have to undergo a formal reaccreditation process, and this can only occur once the first cohort completes the new programme. However, we have a very successful track record of achieving accreditation from the IET for all our programmes.
