Electrical and Electronic Engineering

About this course

Electrical and electronic engineering is one of the most versatile and consequential of all engineering disciplines, underpinning almost every aspect of modern technological life. Electrical engineers design and maintain the power systems that supply homes, businesses, and industries. Electronic engineers develop the circuits, sensors, processors, and communication systems that make computers, smartphones, medical devices, and industrial control systems work. Together, the two disciplines cover the full spectrum from large-scale energy infrastructure to the miniaturised electronics inside a hearing aid, and the engineers who understand both are equipped for an enormous range of roles. At the University of Exeter, this three-year full-time programme includes both a foundation year for students who need additional scientific and mathematical preparation and a sandwich year in industry, as
