Integrated Master of Engineering - Electrical Engineering (Study Abroad Year in Year 2 (H62U)

Electrical engineers are responsible for the design and development of new technologies aimed at generating and processing power. The equipment they design is utilized for the distribution of electrical energy, including the implementation of 'Smart Grid' technologies for renewable energy sources. Additionally, these engineers provide support to various manufacturing industries.

The advancements in electrical engineering technologies have now made it possible to create hybrid and electric vehicles, trains, ships, and even aircraft.

The specialized knowledge and skills gained from our course will enable individuals to contribute towards a more sustainable future. Through engaging in lab-based projects and working both independently and in small teams, students will acquire essential problem-solving and design skills.

During the second year of study, students have the option to pursue their education at either our China or Malaysia campus, providing them with the opportunity to experience different cultures. The curriculum offered at these campuses is identical to that of the UK, with all teaching conducted in English. Students will spend this year focusing on core modules, as well as optional modules that align with their chosen subject specializations.

By combining their numerical, analytical, and technical knowledge, students will develop the confidence to create engineering solutions that are sought after by industry professionals.

In the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, all undergraduate students initially follow a common program of study. However, they have the flexibility to switch to a different plan until the end of their third semester in year two. Additionally, students have the option to add or remove a year abroad or a year in industry after joining the course. By the third year, students can choose to specialize in the topics that align with their interests and career aspirations.

For those who receive an offer at the MEng level, a contextual offer for the BEng version of the course will also be included. This means that if a student does not achieve the required results to meet the MEng offer but would have met the requirements for the BEng version of their chosen course, they will automatically be offered a place on the BEng version.
