Overview

Electronic Engineering sits at the heart of the technologies that shape modern life — from embedded systems and intelligent automation to robotics, advanced manufacturing and smart consumer devices. This degree provides a strong foundation in electronic design while giving you opportunities to specialise in embedded systems, signal processing, control and automation, and the development of integrated electronic systems.You’ll explore how electronic systems are built, programmed and applied across industry, developing both the analytical and practical skills needed to design, evaluate and troubleshoot real engineering solutions. Through a balance of theory, hands-on lab work and software-based analysis, you’ll learn to create reliable, efficient and innovative electronic systems for a wide range of applications.

How this differs from Electrical Engineering:

While Electrical Engineering focuses on large-scale power systems, energy networks and the operation of machines and drives, Electronic Engineering is centred on smaller-scale digital and analogue systems — such as embedded controllers, microprocessors, automation systems, sensors and intelligent electronic devices. If you are more interested in chip design, embedded technology, robotics and programmable electronic systems rather than power grids or electrical machines, this is the course designed for you.
