Computers are all-pervasive. Almost every aspect of daily life depends on highly sophisticated computing systems.
With continuing advances in technology, high user expectations and increasing statutory requirements, there is a high-demand for skilled engineers in electronic computing.
Unlike pure computing degrees which often concentrate on the software, scientific and mathematical aspects of computing, this course will provide you with a wider range of engineering skills, including in hardware and applications of computing to electronic systems. The course draws from the expertise of the Intelligent Systems and Nano-science Research Group at York.
You'll graduate with the abilities and approaches you will need to operate with confidence – as a designer, researcher or as a manager - in the challenging and rapidly changing world of computer engineering.

Year 1
Year 1 provides you with a grounding in electronic principles, circuits, components and devices. There's a strong emphasis on mathematics and computing, including learning the C and Python programming languages. You'll also develop your practical skills, designing and building complete products as part of laboratories and group projects.
Core modules
Your modules will cover topics such as:
Engineering Design
Analogue Electronics and Physics
Mathematics
Digital Circuits
Introduction to Programming
Digital Systems
Year 2
In Year 2 you'll learn to analyse and design hardware and software systems. You'll study material including data structures, algorithms, electromagnetism and Java programming. An advanced construction project gives you the opportunity to apply your skills of design, engineering, problem-solving and project-management.
Core modules
Your modules will cover topics such as:
Design, Construction and Test
Java Programming
Engineering Mathematics, Signals and Systems

Year 3
In Year 3 you'll study a range of advanced core and option modules. You can focus on your interests, or investigate a new aspect of electronic engineering. Throughout the year you'll work on a major individual project, using the knowledge and skills you've developed to research and design a solution to an engineering challenge.
Core modules
Your core modules will cover topics such as:
Control
Communication Systems
Applications of EM
Principles of DSP
The BEng Individual Project gives you a chance to put the skills and understanding you've developed into practice. You'll undertake an independent project: from specification, through initial feasibility studies, to production and testing. Projects from previous years have included:
radio-controlled ultra-small airplane
programmable environmental chamber
measuring and predicting solar output
magnetic biosensors for future medicine
visual tuning feedback for choirs
an electronic Alethiometer
Many of the projects on offer are closely aligned to our current research, giving you the chance to work alongside world-class academics at the forefront of the field.
Option modules
