Course Overview

  • Prepare to achieve Incorporated Engineer status: accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology to ensure this course gives you the relevant recognition
  • Develop your practical skills working with machines, electronic circuits, microprocessors, simulation software, and renewable energy equipment
  • Study in an inspirational learning environment at our Markeaton Street site, home to our impressive STEM Centre and fully equipped with laboratories, workshops, and the latest technology
  • Enjoy valuable industry experience on an optional work placement as part of your studies
  • Take the chance to get involved in far-reaching projects such as the ALICE experiment, on which we are working in partnership with leading organizations at CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research
  • Prepare for careers where you can lead demanding projects in areas as diverse as avionics, medical electronics, automotive systems, electrical power generation, mining or the rail industry.

On this course, you will study both electrical engineering - where electricity is used to transport and deliver energy - and electronic engineering, where electricity can be used to process, transmit and store information.

Electrical engineering deals with the study of motors and generators and their control, power transmission and distribution systems, as well as the principles that underpin them.

Electronic engineering depends heavily on semiconductor technology, which has advanced significantly since the invention of the transistor, leading to the so-called microchip, the world of mobile phones and laptops, and the Internet of Things. Both electrical and electronic engineering are underpinned by the same fundamental scientific laws, but diverge widely beyond those basics.
