Virtually every modern technology is underpinned by electronic or electrical engineering, and it is difficult to think of an application where it doesn’t have influence. From small intricate electronic systems and smart things to large scale power plants, engineers are behind the design, development and testing of these technologies. Electronic and electrical engineers collaborate with other engineering specialists, so it’s crucial to have a broad understanding of general engineering and its applications. At Lancaster, your first year is dedicated to exactly this, and you’ll share this experience with all our School of Engineering students, regardless of their specialisation. Get ready to join a thriving School where what you learn is directly informed by our research and expertise in smart embedded systems, novel electromagnetics, radio frequency engineering, and millimetre waves with THz signals. You’ll benefit from our work with organisations such as CERN and the European Space Agency as well as our strong links with industry.**What to expect**Our four-year BEng Hons Electronic and Electrical Engineering with Placement Year degree starts with your general engineering first year and includes topics such as circuitry and instrumentation, heat transfer and manufacturing, which form a key requirement of modern electrical and electronic systems.You’ll specialise in electronic and electrical engineering from Year 2, developing your core skills as an engineer and building your familiarity and practical experience in power engineering, analogue circuitry and digital systems. Working in our two new engineering buildings with state-of-the-art facilities, you’ll develop your creativity and technical skills as you design, build and test to solve real-world problems.In your final year, you will work on a substantial project into a topic of your choice, often interdisciplinary in nature and linked with industry or one of our research groups. Previous examples of projects that you can work on include remote moisture sensing for internet of things wearable antennas for medical body area network low carbon shipping through improved electric propulsion and energy storage and development of an electrical storm tracker.**Your placement**In Year 3, you will undertake a year in industry that will enable you to apply the knowledge and skills learnt so far and gain invaluable experience. We have extensive links built through our leadership in research and have students undergoing placements with multinational corporate companies to smaller specialist SMEs. Once you have completed your placement, you will write an extended reflective piece about your time spent with the company.**Personal Development**You will develop valuable transferable skills that make you highly desirable to future employers, such as working in collaboration, communication, and the ability to design and build a product or device. You will grow practical skills in diagnosis and testing, system maintenance, digital proficiencies, and the ability to consider and maintain work safety practices in a range of environments. **3 things our electronic and electrical engineering students would like you to know:**- The University is highly regarded for design in research and encourages us to do things differently, so we’re designing and innovating as we learn- All of us engineers share the same newly-built facilities. You’ll find us designing circuits in B02, using integrated software in the computer labs, or putting the mechanical workshops to good use- We benefit from industry input into the degree, and from the multidisciplinary approach to learning. All of the disciplines are connected in one way or another so the experience gained here can be applied to loads of different career paths**Important Information**For the most up-to-date course information and more details, we recommend
