BEng (Hons) Electrical and Electronic Engineering Glasgow Caledonian University

Program Description

Rapid advancements in communications, sensor technologies, robotics, and high-speed electronics, combined with newer technologies such as machine learning and computer vision continue to revolutionise the world we live in. The MEng/BEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering will equip you with the necessary skills and experience to enable you to take your place in the fast-paced world of electrical and electronic engineering, as a creator of next-generation, intelligent, connected devices and systems. Have you ever wondered what mobiles and tablets will be like in the future? How to use satellites to better our lives? How to help people by advancing medical devices? What will next-generation cars and transportation systems look like? How can robots do things better? What sustainable energy sources are possible? Where can we go with space exploration? These are some of the questions that electronic industries are asking too, and you can help find the answers. Using your creativity and innovation, you will create the next generation of intelligent connected devices and robotic systems and create solutions driven by data and electronics. Graduates can expect to find employment in industries such as mobile systems, interactive entertainment, robotic systems design, image processing, artificial intelligence, communications and networking, automotive, aerospace, oil and gas, renewable energy, instrumentation and medical systems, as well as being in demand in roles outside engineering where their problem-solving skills and wide knowledge of technology is highly valued. As part of our continual improvement, additional specialisation options may be added to this programme, slightly changing the degree title for 2025 entry. This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purpose of partly meeting the academic requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer.
