Overview
With project-based learning in all years, including live industry-led projects, you’ll develop the transferable skills and the multi-disciplinary awareness so highly prized by industry.
Study electrical engineering at Manchester Met and you’ll start off by getting a solid introduction to key engineering principles, before specialising in subjects such as electrical energy systems, control and automation, and electronic systems design. You’ll also learn to use advanced engineering software as you develop your analytical skills and work on more cutting-edge topics.
You can choose to study our electrical and electronic engineering course over three years, or take an extra year for a placement in industry. Whichever route you take, you’ll have all the skills and understanding you need to get started on your engineering career.
This Electrical and Electronic Engineering (Hons) degree from Manchester Metropolitan University is 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.
