Electronics and Computer Engineering

About this course

Electronics and computer engineering is a discipline at the boundary between hardware and software, concerned with the design and implementation of the embedded systems, firmware and software that make physical devices work intelligently. It encompasses everything from the circuit board design and signal processing of electronics through to the software and systems architecture of modern embedded computing, and its practitioners are the engineers who make the Internet of Things work, who build the control systems for autonomous vehicles and industrial automation, and who develop the firmware that runs in smartphones, medical devices and aerospace equipment. At Newcastle University this three-year, full-time programme develops your skills across the full range of electronics and computer engineering competencies, covering digital and analogue electronics, microprocessors and embedded sys
