Trinity College London Integrated Skills in English: ISEII at Distinction with Distinction in all sub-tests
* Please note that TOEFL is still acceptable for admission to this programme for both home/EU and international students.
For international students, the Home Office has confirmed that the University can choose to use TOEFL to make its own assessment of English language ability for visa applications to degree level courses. We therefore still accept TOEFL tests taken in the last two years for admission to this programme.
This degree programme covers a wide range of topics relating to electronics & electrical engineering within modern life. It will enable you, as a graduate engineer, to be employed in a large number of industries, from power engineering to nanoelectronics, radar and telecommunication systems to the design of digital technology.
Studying Electronics & Electrical Engineering prepares you for a wide range of professional careers. As a graduate engineer you will be able to deal with anything from power engineering to microelectronics, radar installations to the design of digital systems.

Year 1
In your first year, you will take a wide-ranging curriculum which includes courses in analogue and digital electronics, mathematics, dynamics, materials, thermodynamics and engineering skills. These courses are supported by individual and group project work and laboratory work. This interdisciplinary approach, favoured by industry, also makes it possible to switch to most other engineering disciplines at the end of year 1 should you wish to do so.
Year 2 and 3
The following two years will contain a core of compulsory subjects as well as optional subjects in business and management.
The core courses will give you a firm grounding in the knowledge and skills required of any professional electronics or electrical engineer, whether your career takes you to work with hydroelectric projects or wind farms, designing high-tech gadgets and communications devices or creating new electronic components at the nano-scale. These courses are augmented with practical construction and project work in each year: working both alone and in teams.
Year 4 and 5
You will have a wide choice of technical options in fourth year. You will also gain expertise in professional subjects including economics, project organisation, environmental issues and safety.
BEng students will complete a substantial individual project under the one-to-one supervision of a member of academic staff.
MEng students will have the opportunity to take part in a multidisciplinary integrated system design project instead of the individual project. You will learn the skills of project management and work alongside students of other engineering disciplines. Half of this year is devoted to project work, normally carried out in industry, and often via a placement abroad.
Pre-Sessional English Course
This depends on your starting level. For students aiming for the standard requirement of IELTS 6.5 and starting a degree programme in September we recommend
Foundation Certificate for Science and Engineering
For entry to the 2nd year of an undergraduate degree at the University of Glasgow. Your course length is determined mainly by your English language level (UKVI IELTS score or accepted equivalent).
All students take a set of common or similar modules to gain key skills for university. If your course is longer than 2 terms, you’ll take extra modules focusing on one or more of English language, academic skills and basic subject knowledge.
Our recent graduates have been employed by McLaren, Cadence, Leonardo, Cirrus Logic, Nordic Semiconductors, Analog Devices, Clyde Space, SP Energy Networks, Jaguar Land Rover, Royal Bank of Scotland, among many other organisations.
ACCREDITATION
Our BEng and MEng degrees are accredited by the Institution of Engineering & Technology.
