ObjectivesElectronic engineering underpins the very fabric of modern day living. It is a discipline at the forefront of advances that have shaped the way we live today and continues to push forward technological frontiers. The role of the electronic engineer covers a wide spectrum of industry and business. The aim of this course is to provide relevant, up-to-date skills that enhance the engineering competency of its graduate and allows a broader knowledge of electronic engineering through a wide choice of topics. The course is intended for graduates in a related discipline, who wish to enhance and specialise their skills in this area. It enables graduates and practising engineers to have the skills, knowledge and understanding to apply new technologies in the design and implementation of modern systems. An alternative study mode, based on an extended project, is available to applicants who already have a significant specialist background in Electronic Engineering.
Entry requirementsElectronic systems are vital to modern society. If your interest lies in the design and implementation of electronic and communication systems, and in helping to meet customers’ needs and aspirations, then this course is for you. You will probably also have a background in some aspect of electronics or communications and an interest in their overall design and implementation.
Academic titleMSc Electronic Engineering
Course descriptionYou will study eight units on this course plus an individual project. Currently, the units are:
-Digital system design
-VHDL systems desig
-Advanced DSP techniques
-MATLAB system analysis and simulation
-Microwave and wireless technology
-Data network principles
-Data network operation
-Project preparation
The course concludes with a 4-month individual project in which you apply your knowledge to a significant, in-depth piece of analysis or design. Your projects will be tailored to your individual interests and may take place in our own laboratories or, by agreement, in industry.
