MEng Computer and Electronic Systems

5 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

University of Strathclyde

Program Overview

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's 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.

This is one of the few UK degrees with triple accreditation from the Institution of Engineering and Technology, British Computer Society and the Science Council.

Experiential Learning (Research, Projects, Internships etc.)

Students have access to the IET Power Academy & Scholarship programme, which includes paid work placements, providing valuable industry experience. The program also offers opportunities for international study, allowing students to gain global perspectives in their field. Throughout the course, students engage in individual and group projects, applying their knowledge to real-world problems and developing essential professional skills.

Progression & Future Opportunities

Graduates of this program are well-prepared for careers in various sectors, including telecommunications, consumer electronics, and information technology. The triple professional accreditation by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), Engineering Council, and British Computer Society enables graduates to pursue status as Chartered Engineers, IT Specialists, or both. 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.
