Modules

Year 1 In your first year you’ll build strong foundations in engineering mathematics, electrical power and analogue and digital electronics, while developing hands-on skills in programming and embedded systems using platforms like Arduino. You’ll also explore artificial intelligence and work on team-based projects that introduce professional engineering practices, preparing you for more advanced study. Core modules Engineering Mathematics Engineering Practice Analogue and Digital Electronics Embedded Systems 1 Introduction to Artificial Intelligence Introduction to Electrical Engineering Year 2 In your second year you’ll deepen your expertise in power systems, communications and control, learning how to design and analyse electrical networks and model dynamic engineering systems. You’ll advance your programming and embedded systems skills, gain hands-on experience in digital system design and work in multidisciplinary teams to deliver an engineering project from concept to competitive testing. Core modules Communication Networks Dynamics and Control Electrical Engineering 2 Embedded Systems 2 Digital Systems Design Engineering Design Optional Placement Year By doing a year placement in industry you’ll gain the right amount of work experience to reach Engineering Technician (EngTech) status. Our students have been on placement with companies including Paxton, BMW Mini, Cummins and Ricardo UK Ltd. Year 3 In your third year, you’ll further your knowledge in advanced electronics, high-voltage power systems and product design, applying your learning to real-world engineering challenges. You’ll complete an independent project that showcases your technical and professional skills, with options to specialise in areas such as networking or digital signal processing. Core modules High Voltage Power, Distribution and Utilisation Electronics Product Design Individual Project Options* Digital Signal Processing Networking Final year In your final year, you’ll take your engineering expertise to an advanced level, developing skills in cyber security, communication systems and engineering management. You’ll work as part of a team to solve complex, real-world engineering challenges, while also pursuing an independent professional development project that prepares you for leadership and innovation in the industry.
