Electronics & Electrical Engineering with Information Engineering
Program Overview
Introduction to Electronics & Electrical Engineering with Information Engineering
The Electronics & Electrical Engineering with Information Engineering program is a dual degree offered in collaboration with the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC). This program combines the strengths of both universities to provide students with a comprehensive education in electronics and electrical engineering.
Program Overview
Electronics and Electrical Engineering touches all aspects of contemporary life, having spawned the electric power generation and transmission systems, the computer revolution, global telecommunications, the fields of robotics and automation, and the modern entertainment industries. The program aims to develop in students a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles on which electronic and electrical devices, circuits, and systems are based.
Program Structure
The program is designed to equip graduates for a wide range of opportunities in industry, with the following aims:
- To develop in students a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles on which electronic and electrical devices, circuits, and systems are based
- To build experience in the analysis and solution of practical engineering problems, and the design and test of novel electronic and electrical devices, circuits, and systems
- To provide experience of engineering practice including the use of standard tools and software
- To provide opportunities for the student to study specialist topics, chosen by students in their Honours year
- To inculcate the skills and creativity required to perform both team and individual projects successfully
- To build some appreciation of the non-technical aspects of the environment in which engineers are employed

2+2 Programme
The Glasgow College, UESTC provides students in Chengdu with a fantastic opportunity to be taught by two world-class Universities and graduate with dual degrees. Students can choose to complete all four years of study in China or travel overseas and join Glasgows School of Engineering for years 3 and 4.
Career Prospects
Electronics and Electrical Engineering graduates from the University of Glasgow are highly sought after by employers across the world. Graduates may choose from a broad range of employment options, including constructing nanoscale electronic circuits, planning wide area telecommunications networks, or designing the electronics and electrical systems for energy harvesting or comfortable human transportation.
Accreditation
All current University of Glasgow single and joint honours degrees with Electronics are accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partly meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.
