MEng Electronic Engineering: University of Sussex

About the programme

In these programmes, you will gain an appreciation of the properties of integrated circuits and a sound understanding of the basic electronic components of which they are constituted and the state-of-the-art systems that use these devices. There is a strong practical component to the programmes, including laboratory exercises and group and individual projects.

In Year 4 of the MEng, the courses become more specialised, with additional emphasis on communications engineering. Through the project work, you benefit from the Sussex research programmes, including the design of personal and mobile communication systems, the development of quantum circuits for future technologies, the design of circuits for graphics accelerators, instrumentation for spacecraft, unique systems for noninvasive sensing, and innovative approaches to cardiac and ophthalmic instrumentation.
