Electrical and Electronic Engineering University of Hull

Overview

With the Electrical and Electronic Engineering course offered by University of Hull you’ll explore up-to-the-minute fields including smart power, instrumentation, process control, communications and remote sensing. You’ll design, build and test prototypes in our embedded systems lab, robotics lab and digital manufacturing lab. And you’ll get the chance to spend a year on placement in industry. That way, you’ll gain key skills that employers are looking for: analysis, design and business awareness. Along the way, you’ll have full support from our award-winning careers team.

But it’s not all study and work. There are lots of extra-curricular activities for you to get involved with as well. Join our thriving Robotics Society, and become part of our Hull Electric Racing Team (HERT). As a member of HERT, you’ll help to build a single seater racing car and compete against other students at Silverstone.

As well as our three-year course, we offer four- and five-year options. Choose from a built-in placement year or an integrated Masters (MEng) – or both. And like all our engineering courses, Electrical and Electronic Engineering shares a common first year. That means you can switch degrees in second year if you want to choose a different pathway.

Future prospects

• Electronic and electrical systems are always evolving. And the mathematical and problem-solving skills you gain are valuable to many industries. So the demand for talented engineers continues to rise.

• They’re employed in companies working on the design, development and manufacture of a wide variety of products. As technical advisors for marketing departments. In academic or government research facilities. In patent offices. And as professional Chartered Engineers.
