Engineering (Electronic and Software)

About this course

Electronic and software engineering is a discipline built on the principle that hardware and software are most powerfully understood together. Electronic systems, from microcontrollers to complex signal processing hardware, only become useful when programmed and integrated with software, while software increasingly depends on a precise understanding of the hardware it runs on. This joint focus gives graduates an unusually versatile technical perspective, relevant to an extraordinary range of industries from consumer electronics to aerospace. At the University of Aberdeen you will study across four years on a full-time programme, with a year abroad that extends your engineering education to an international academic context. The programme covers the theoretical foundations of both disciplines alongside practical engineering work. Electronic engineering content includes circuit design, si
