Electrical Engineering - MEng (Hons)

University of Nottingham

Electrical engineers design and develop new technologies to generate and process power. The equipment they design is used to distribute electrical energy (including 'Smart Grid' technologies for renewable energy sources), and also supports many manufacturing industries.Electrical engineering technologies now enable hybrid and electric vehicles, trains, ships and even aircraft.Our course will give you the specialist electrical knowledge and skills that will help you be part of a more sustainable future. Through lab-based projects, working individually and in small teams, you'll learn essential problem solving and design skills.By bringing together your numerical, analytical and technical knowledge, you will be confident in creating engineering solutions that industry are looking for.All undergraduate students in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering initially follow a common programme of study, allowing them to change to a different plan up until the end of their third semester in year two. It is also possible to add or remove a year abroad and year in industry after joining the course. By year three, you can choose to specialise in the topics that interest you and suit your career aspirations.If you are made an offer at MEng level, this will include a contextual offer for the BEng version of this course.
