BEng Hons Electronic Engineering

at Bangor University

You will spend about 12 hours in lectures and 8 in laboratories each week. You will also have tutorials and have to write up experiments, work on software design and complete numerical problem-solving exercises.

You will have an examination for each module at the end of the semester. Some modules have coursework assessment as well. Your laboratory work books, technical reports and the individual project also contribute to your marks.

The first year of the programme gives you the opportunity to build a solid foundation in designing, modelling and building analogue and digital circuits. 

The second year develops the foundations and applies these new skills to more advanced concepts in electronic circuits, including VLSI & Digital Circuits, Sustainable Project Management and Microelectronics and Nanophononics. 

During the third year of the course some optionality has been introduced to allow and individual specialism, complement this with the individual project you will have a unique and personalised experience.

To study for a degree, you’ll be asked for a minimum of UCAS Tariff points. For a fuller explanation of the UCAS Tariff Points, please see www.ucas.com.

We accept students with a wide range of qualifications and backgrounds and consider each application individually.

All students need to have good basic skills and the University also values IT and communication skills.

As part of the University’s policy, we consider applications from prospective disabled students on the same grounds as all other students.

We also consider applications from mature students who can demonstrate the motivation and commitment to study a university programme. Each year we enrol a significant number of mature students. For more information about studying as a mature student, see our Studying at Bangor section of the website.

Additional Costs

• There are also some common additional costs that are likely to arise for students on all courses, for example:
• If you choose to study abroad or take the International Experience Year as part of your course.
• If you attend your Graduation Ceremony, there will be a cost for gown hire (£25-£75) and cost for additional guest tickets (c.£12 each).

Graduates in Electronic Engineering have enviable career prospects. As would be expected, many take up electronic engineering posts in small or large businesses, or government or private research and development facilities. However, the problem-solving and numerate nature of our engineering degree courses means that graduates are highly valued in many other professions, ranging from general management roles to working as numerical analysts. Postgraduate study is another exciting option for some.
