  1. ELECTRONIC &ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING In Everything You Do

  2. Why are you here? • Interest in electronics, electrical, mechanical engineering, • computing or technology: Why Study with US? • Best University - “bold, imaginative & innovative” institution praised for our educational strategy, engagement with Industry, and commitment to making an impact on the global economy (THE UK University of the Year 2012) • Best Department – A Top 100 EEE Dept in the World(QS World University Rankings by Subject 2013)

  3. What courses are on offer? • BEng [Hons] - 4 years or Integrated MEng – 5 years • Entry to both levels are based on qualifications gained school or college, BUTthey are articulated, meaning transfer between them at the end of any of the first 3 years. • We offer 3 Mainstream programmes • BEng / MEng Electronic & Electrical Engineering [EEE] • BEng / MEng Electrical & Mechanical Engineering [EME] • BEng / MEng Computer & Electronic Systems [CES] • From this core comes our Specialist programmes • MEng EEE with Business • MEng EEE / EME or CES with International Study • MEng Electrical Energy Systems • MEng Electronic & Digital Systems

  4. Electronic & Electrical Engineering (Fully accredited by IET) Core Programme Years 1 & 2 Fundamentals Mathematics, engineering science, analogue & digital circuits, software design, electronics, electrical power engineering, computing and business. Group design projects Year 3 Building Knowledge Base and Specialisation Continue with core programme but begin to specialise with options in Signal processing, design and analysis of electrical instrumentation systems,, engineering innovation, power engineering and embedded systems. Yrs 4 & 5 Continue with Mainstream Degree or Follow Specialist Curriculum Separate curricula for Electronic & Digital Systems (EDS) and Electrical Energy Systems (EES) Year 4 - Study abroad opportunities for ALL students Start adding specialist business, entrepreneurship and management classes for the EEE with Business Studies Degree Major individual and group projects to design, build and present a working prototype linked to departments research and industrial programmes.

  5. Electrical & Mechanical Engineering (Fully accredited by IET and the IMechE) Taught jointly by the Departments of EEE and Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering Spans the traditional boundaries of electrical and mechanical engineering Produce highly skilled engineers with technical expertise and understanding within and across both disciplines. Years 1 to 3 Fundamentals and Building Knowledge Base Core classes in electrical & mechanical engineering, mathematics and computing. Yrs 4 & 5: Choice and Specialisation Classes in Electrical & Mechanical Systems Engineering, with advanced options in Renewable energy, Robotics, Flight & Spacecraft, Transportation systems. Individual and group projects – linked to research in either EEE or Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering. Year 4 – study abroad opportunities for all students one of our academic partners.

  6. Computer & Electronic Systems Fully accredited by IET, Engineering Council & the British Computer Society [BCS]) Taught jointly by Departments of EEE and Computer & Information Sciences [CIS] Produces highly skilled engineers with knowledge & understanding to embed intelligence, create and design the products and systems of the future. Year 1 Fundamentals Introduce principles & concepts in electronic engineering, maths & computer science Years 2 & 3 Building Knowledge Base Based upon Year 1 adding programming languages (VHDL, C++) & techniques, computer communications, electronic design, software engineering systems and multimedia entertainment. Years 4 & 5 Choice and Specialisation Information and internet security, AI techniques, E-commerce, Embedded systems, software design, engineering innovation and multimedia information. Individual and major group projects, to design, build and present a working prototype- linked to research in CIS and EEE departments Year 4 –study abroad opportunities for all students

  7. Is there any financial support? • One of the UK’s largest Industry-supported Scholarship Programme • S6 Bursaries- £250 incentive to maintain academic performance in S6 • IET Power Academy - annual £2200 bursary, support for consumables & • paid summer internship: ONLY DEPT IN SCOTLAND • BP - Bursaries up to £5000 & Graduate opportunities: only EEE DEPT IN SCOTLAND • Lloyds Register– £3000 bursary open to MEng Yrs 2 – 5 • AMEC– Annual £2000 bursary & paid summer internship • FM Bruce Scholarships- Up to £1000 annual bursary • Parsons Brinckerhoff– Paid summer internships • Faculty Engineering Excellence Scholarships • - INEOS, MacTaggart Scott, ScottishPower and Wood Group - £2000 annual bursary open to all MEng Yr 3
