Electronics and Computer Science

About this course

Electronics and computer science is a degree built on the recognition that hardware and software are not separate concerns but deeply interdependent fields whose interaction has driven some of the most significant technological advances of the past half-century. From the microprocessor architectures that make modern computing possible to the communications protocols that underlie the internet, from embedded systems in everyday devices to high-performance computing clusters, the most important advances have come from engineers and scientists who understand both sides of the discipline. At the University of Edinburgh you will study across four years on a full-time programme, with a year abroad that extends your academic formation to an international institution. Edinburgh is one of the world's leading universities for both computer science and electronics, and the programme draws on resea
