About 2-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate in Science and Health - Continue to Integrated Masters - Master of Engineering (MEng) (Honours) - Electronic Engineering (Placement Year)

Program Description

For students who've finished high school but don’t meet the entry requirements for university, a Foundation Certificate can help them gain entry to an undergraduate degree. After completing this pathway option students qualify for progression to the 1st year of an undergraduate degree at the University of Essex.

A student’s course length is determined mainly by their English language level (UKVI IELTS score). Students on all course lengths take a set of common or similar modules to gain a solid base of skills for university. Students taking a course longer than 2 terms, will take additional modules designed to improve one or more of their English language level, academic skills, and basic knowledge of particular subjects.

Master of Engineering - Electronic Engineering

On the four-year MEng version of this course, students cover the same wide spectrum of topics as those on the BEng in order to provide them with the foundation to become an electronics designer:

Mathematical skills and software tools for problem-solving in engineering
Wireless Communication technology
The building blocks of complex digital systems
Analogue systems and circuit techniques
Computer simulations

In addition to these areas, students also achieve a masters-level qualification and have the opportunity to investigate more advanced topics in electronic engineering, including:

Mathematics and modern communication systems
The development of software for embedded systems and robots
The design simulation and production of complex electronic circuits

The School is a community of scholars leading the way in technological research and development. Today’s electronic engineers are creative people who are focused and committed, yet restless and experimental. It is home to many of the world’s top engineers, and its work is driven by creativity and imagination as well as technical excellence.

It is Top 25 for electronic engineering (The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2020), and more than two-thirds of its research rated “world-leading” or “internationally excellent” (REF 2014).
