What do 3D TV, digital cameras, smartphones, the iPad and sports instant replay have in common? They're all examples of technology which have been developed combining skills from both Computer Science and Electronic Engineering. These subjects have become increasingly intertwined in recent years, so there is a need for engineers with the ability to create and embed intelligence into the products and systems of the future.
Engineers with operational and technical expertise in both electronics and software engineering are needed to design the next generation of computer apps, interactive vehicle robotic agents that monitor driver information and respond accordingly, or digital cinema technology. This degree is designed to produce these skilled professional engineers.
Students in this program have access to the IET Power Academy & Scholarship programme, which includes paid work placements, providing valuable industry experience. Additionally, the curriculum emphasizes both individual and group projects, allowing students to apply theoretical knowledge to practical challenges in areas such as electronics, communications design, hardware engineering systems, image/video processing, and robotics.
Graduates of the BEng (Hons) Computer and Electronic Systems program are well-prepared for careers in various sectors, including communications, information technology, electronics, automotive and aerospace industries, finance and banking, power and energy, and project management and engineering consultancy. The program's strong emphasis on both hardware and software equips students with a versatile skill set, enhancing their employability in the rapidly evolving tech industry. Graduates have secured positions with companies such as Samsung, Nokia, BT, Thales, Selex ES, Linn Products, Siemens, Infiniti Red Bull Racing, GE Aviation, Tesco Bank, Barclays, Morgan Stanley, ScottishPower, SSE, National Grid, Atkins, and Parsons Brinckerhoff. The program's triple accreditation by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), Engineering Council, and British Computer Society ensures that graduates possess the technical expertise and professional recognition to compete effectively in the job market.
