Course summary

Overview Electrical and electronic engineers have a vital role to play in responding to the climate crisis and shaping the future of our society. They bring key expertise to deliver electrification and digitisation across multiple sectors such as transport, power generation, heating, and cooling, and beyond. There is therefore a growing need for highly competent electrical and electronic engineers, especially those with the skills to tackle society’s biggest challenges. The School of Engineering at UEA is dedicated to developing this new breed of electrical and electronic engineers. That’s why Productivity East, the home of engineering at UEA, was established: to meet society’s demand for the engineers of the future. This integrated Master’s degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering provides an accredited route to Chartered Engineer status. About This Course MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering is professionally accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) and designed to form the next generation electrical and electronic engineers. All our engineering courses share an integrated programme structure for the first year, giving you a well-rounded skills base to build upon. From the second year onwards, you’ll specialise in electrical and electronic engineering, refining your theoretical knowledge and practical skills. You’ll also have the chance to work closely with other UEA Schools including Environmental Sciences, Computing Sciences and Mathematics, so your learning is limitless. From day one, you’ll have access to a wide range of simulation tools and experimental lab facilities. You’ll make use of our well-equipped electrical and electronics lab throughout your engineering studies, for various electronics design projects and electric circuit prototyping and testing. Our electrical power lab is equipped with electrical machine test rigs, allowing for practical, experimental study of various types of electrical motors and drives. You’ll also learn how to model and analyse different engineering systems using industry-standard simulation software such as MATLAB/Simulink, ANSYS, and COMSOL Multiphysics finite element tools. You’ll benefit from our connections with local industry right from the start of your course. Productivity East, our state-of-the-art engineering facility, offers a space for connection between UEA engineering students and our industrial partners. These connections will give you unparalleled industry insight, helping you forge your own career pathway. Through meeting role-models, attending site visits, and networking with professional engineers, you’ll have a clear sense of the many career options available to you. You can also take advantage of our annual Select partnership scheme, an exclusive employability event for engineering students which attracts several prestigious employers each year.
