In the world of industry, advances are achieved by teams.
These teams have to be directed, organised and inspired by managers, who are often engineers of considerable talent and experience.
Teamwork and collaboration are essential when responding to design criteria, rigid timelines and unexpected issues. Those with excellent management skills will help to deliver the best solution within the timeframe. Engineers aim to anticipate and avoid problems that might arise in a wide range of industrial applications.
Our MEng will cement your knowledge of fundamental principles and introduce you to advanced concepts. You'll experience a large team software engineering project, as well as managing a substantial individual project, allowing you to develop the knowledge and skills required to become a leader in the industry. With an increased choice of advanced option modules, you'll have the opportunity to engage with world-class researchers and work with our latest innovative technology.
If you're aspiring to have a leading role in the engineering industry, this course is for you.

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
Noise, Waves and Fields
Semiconductor Devices and Circuits
Algorithms and Numerical Methods

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 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
Principles of DSP
Accounting and Finance
Management and Marketing of Technology
Law for Engineering Management
The Software Engineering Project will provide you with a real-life application of your skills, within the context of a small business environment. You'll develop a large piece of software engineering as a group, and will work through design, implementation and testing methods for the project. Each of your team will manage a major role within the company, such as programming, finance, marketing, testing, as well as doing the actual programming.
You'll work creatively and develop collaborative and project management skills, using integrated development environments, cloud-based version control tools and industry-standard cloud-based collaboration tools. You'll also communicate technical concepts and present your work in a live tender presentation to ‘sell’ your work and convince the financial backers, as well as a final presentation.
Recent applications have included:
interactive climbing guide
integrated cooking tutor
media-rich estate agent
virtual lecture-note taking
online bike maintenance
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
Option modules may include:
Analogue Engineering
State Space and Digital Control
LAN and Internet Protocols
Mobile Communication Systems
