Your application, especially your personal statement, should explain your motivation for choosing this degree and any relevant non-academic interests and achievements. You are more likely to be successful if you demonstrate a strong interest in electrical engineering and computer systems through relevant reading, extracurricular or co-curricular activities, or work experience.
 

You will need a strong performance in Mathematics as part of your entry qualifications. You will also need strong performance in a second science or technology subject, such as:
 

• Biology
• Chemistry
• Computer Science
• Design and Technology (except Fashion or Textiles)
• Electronics
• Environmental Science
• Further Mathematics
• Information and Communication Technology
• Music Technology
• Physics
   

Consider a range of factors when assessing your application for this course, including your previous academic performance (such as GCSEs), your personal statement, your predicted grades and the combination of subjects you study at A level (or equivalent).
 

Your personal statement should explain your motivation for choosing this degree and any relevant non-academic interests and achievements. You are more likely to be successful if you demonstrate a keen interest in topics relevant to both computer science and mathematics through relevant reading, extracurricular or co-curricular activities, or work experience.
 

Strong performance in Mathematics is essential, both in your entry qualifications and any previous study. If you are studying A levels we strongly prefer that you take a full A level in Further Mathematics, which forms part of our typical offer. Offers are available for applicants who have only studied Further Mathematics at AS level or have not studied it at all. We also prefer applicants who have previously studied Computer Science, however, you do not need to have done so to be suitable for this course.
