You’ll gain knowledge of integrated circuits applied to robotics, instrumentation, computer and communication systems, in addition to power generation and transmission, electrical motors and renewable energy. You will put your learning to the test with challenging team projects, including building underwater robots and armoured sumo wrestling robots. You will also have the opportunity to specialise in two areas, which will further enhance your employment prospectus when you graduate. Academic staff are experienced Engineers, many with Chartered status and industry links, who have achieved or are working towards Higher Education Academy Fellowship - a professional recognition of their practice, impact and leadership in teaching and learning. Many are research-active and some feature in the annual STAR awards (Support and Teaching staff with Appreciation and Recognition) voted for by the students. Engineering Applications Supervisors will take you through the more practical aspects of Engineering in our Flexible Learning Labs and Technicians and postgraduate research students will provide support for projects and laboratory work.
