Electrical and electronic engineers are at the forefront of the challenge to connect our world; to design and build more efficient and affordable technology; to provide a robust and green energy network; and to help us live better, healthier, smarter and more sustainably.
It’s a discipline which impacts on almost every area of our lives, including communications, commerce, entertainment, manufacturing, healthcare, transport, energy and the environment.
This degree prepares future engineering leaders to manage the business of engineering through a series of modules taught by Imperial College Business School. The knowledge and skills you gain will form part of the foundation for your future career, which could be working in a large organisation or even starting up your own company. This course is also a popular route into graduate positions in the finance sector; and if you aspire to a management role in a technical environment, this degree provides the best of both worlds.

I-Explore
Individual Industrial Placement - part 1 or Group Consultancy Project
I-Explore
Your I-Explore module offers you choices from a range of subjects hosted outside of the department. You will be taught alongside students from other courses with options including business, management and many more. If you are studying the MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering with Management, you cannot take a Business School module as your I-Explore module.
Individual Industrial Placement
The industrial placement typically runs from April to September and is supervised by a member of staff from the host company and a member of staff from the Department. It must be related to your degree in technical, business or commercial content. Departmental staff will help you set and agree on objectives for your placement, which is assessed by a written and oral report.
Students have previously enjoyed placement opportunities with:
Altera
Bang & Olufsen
Dialog Semiconductors
Goldman Sachs
IBM
Ocado Technology
Group Consultancy Project
As an alternative to the industrial placement, you can take part in a group project (6–8 people) during the summer term. The group acts as a technical consultant to a brief provided by an industrial client. The project will involve the specification, design, implementation and testing of a pre-production prototype of a new product or technical solution.
Optional modules
You will choose two modules from Group A and one module from Group B.
Group A
Advanced Mathematics for Signal Processing
Analogue Integrated Circuits and Systems
Artificial Intelligence
Biomedical Electronics
Communication Networks
Communication Systems
Control Engineering
Digital Signal Processing
Electrical Energy Systems
Machine Learning
Microwave Technology
Optoelectronics
Semiconductor Devices
Group B
Advanced Signal Processing
Deep Learning
Digital Systems Design
High Level Programming
Instrumentation
Principles of Modern and Classical Radar
Power Electronics
Real Time Digital Signal Processing
Year 4
You will take the following core modules.
Corporate Finance
Managerial Economics
Strategic Management
Individual Industrial Placement –part 2
Individual Project
Individual project
You can choose a project from an extensive list proposed by members of academic staff. Due to the variety of staff expertise, the list covers a wide range of engineering topics. Proposing your own project is encouraged, and is done in collaboration with a member of staff who is an expert in the proposed field.
This portfolio assesses your Professional Engineering built over four years and completed by the fourth and final year. The aim of a professional portfolio is to encourage you to reflect on what you have learned and evidence this in a digital or paper format.
If you have taken the Group Project option in your third year, you must do a summer internship or placement between your third and fourth year and report on this in your professional portfolio.
Industrial placement students must submit a professional portfolio towards achieving the learning outcomes of the course.
You choose a total of three modules from Group A and Group B, in addition to one module from Group C.
