Electronic and Electrical Engineering FT

UCAS code: H618

Here's what Nottingham Trent University says about its Electronic and Electrical Engineering FT course.

It’s impossible to imagine a world without electronic and electrical engineering. It covers everything from tiny integrated circuits in household items and mobile phones, to the large-scale utilities that power our homes. The industry is fast paced and rapidly changing with a focus on renewable and sustainable energy sources. An electronic and electrical degree from NTU can put you at the forefront of this exciting technological revolution by providing the skills and knowledge needed to be a great engineer.

During this course, you will develop your knowledge and engineering skills by participating in several industry-led projects. These are set by external industry experts to make you think, work and behave like a professional engineer. You’ll learn to use latest digital technologies to deliver creative and effective solutions for a wide range of engineering problems in electronic and electrical domains. We’ve embedded sustainability as a core part of our curriculum and you’ll spend time looking at solutions for environmental-related issues.

The Grand Challenge, a concept design project posed by industry, marks the end of your first and second years. You will present your results at an end of year show before focusing on an individual research project. This forms a substantial part of the Masters level modules for the MEng qualification.

With an integrated Masters (MEng) qualification, you’ll take your studies to the next level by studying undergraduate and Masters-level material alongside an in-depth research project.

With the focus firmly on problem-solving and live project work, we aim to give you three to four years of industry experience before you graduate. Who wouldn’t want that on their CV?

Accreditation Accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partly meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.

This course is recognised by CDIO, a framework that has a project based learning approach. This framework stresses engineering fundamentals set in the context of Conceiving — Designing — Implementing — Operating (CDIO) real-world systems and products. The framework is dedicated to providing students with their initial grounding in engineering through live projects.
