Electrical Engineering with Foundation Year

About this course

Electrical engineering underpins the generation, transmission and use of electrical power, which is the foundation of modern technological civilisation. From the power grids that distribute electricity across continents to the electric vehicles and renewable energy systems that are reshaping how power is generated and consumed, electrical engineers are at the centre of one of the most significant infrastructure transitions of our time. The discipline draws on physics, mathematics and systems design, and its practitioners work across energy, transport, communications and manufacturing at a very large scale. At the University of Southampton, this four-year full-time programme begins with a foundation year, giving you the mathematical and scientific preparation needed for degree-level electrical engineering before you move into the main programme. You will learn to build the systems and te
