Course overview

Electrical engineering concerns anything that involves electrical power, from the electromagnetics of superconducting systems to the principles of power generation and transmission. Our programmes are broad, based on solid physics and mathematics, and include many different elements that complement traditional power engineering. It is this combination of breadth, fundamentals and applications that gives these courses their strength. You will be taught by staff with up-to-date knowledge of industrial problems so that theory is illustrated with understanding derived from practical experience.

  • This programme covers topics ranging from the technologies of electrical power and control to microelectronics and computing. You will work on systems which interface electronics and computers with aircraft, electric cars and renewable energy sources.
  • Wide range of technical subjects covered in year one, in common with other degrees in the School, enabling you to transfer between programmes in this year
  • Focus on core subjects in year two, with opportunity to tailor your studies to meet your interests in year three, including options from outside the School
  • Project work allows you to work at the frontier of knowledge with one of our research groups
