Studying Electrical and Electronic Engineering puts you at the centre of a vibrant and fast-moving discipline of relevance to industries such as electronics, information technology, manufacturing, energy generation and supply, transport, and communications.

This four-year MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering degree offers you a quicker, more direct route to Chartered Engineer status than the three-year BEng.

The MEng allows you to use the last two years to expand and strengthen your knowledge in electrical and electronic engineering. You will benefit from advanced learning in design and management and an appreciation of the techniques needed to manage and organise a multidisciplinary engineering design project.

The course is reviewed annually with input from our industrial partners to ensure that the modules taught are at the cutting edge and reflect the current state of the industry.

Other Cardiff University Electrical and Electronic Engineering courses include:

• A thorough grounding in the fundamentals of electrical and electronic engineering if you choose a BEng course.
• The opportunity to follow a sandwich year in industry if you choose the relevant four-year BEng or five-year MEng degree option.
• The opportunity to study abroad at a partner institution for one semester if you choose the relevant MEng (International) degree option.
