Entry requirements
Minimum requirements A minimum 2:1 undergraduate UK Honours degree or equivalent international qualification, in electronic, electrical or telecommunications engineering, or in an engineering science programme (with electronic, electrical, telecommunications or systems pathway). Please note that applicants will need post A2 Level (or equivalent) knowledge in Mathematics, covering topics such as linear algebra, calculus and analysis, and including differential equations. This could be gained through a mathematics module taken as part of an undergraduate course. It is expected that candidates have a good understanding of these topics at the start of their MSc studies. You can see how your current degree score or GPA equates to the British system in our Study pages in the Equivalent scores table. We are willing to consider applications from students with lower qualifications on a case-by-case basis, particularly when the applicant can evidence relevant employment, practical experience or strong performance in undergraduate modules related to their proposed postgraduate course of study. To ensure you have the essential foundations for the course, and depending on your overall academic profile, we may require you to take a mathematical skills test. English language requirements You can find out more about our English language requirements on our website. This course requires the following: - Band A - IELTS overall score of 6.5, minimum component scores not below 6.0 International qualifications We welcome applications from students with other internationally recognised qualifications.
