Electronic Engineering with Foundation Meng

In this integrated master’s programme (also offered part-time) you will learn about everything from analogue and digital electronics to contemporary embedded systems, signal processing technologies and modern communications.

You’ll be taught by an experienced academic team and will be supported to develop a solid foundation in maths and circuitry before getting to grips with analogue, digital and microcomputer systems. As well as industry software, key professional skills and manufacturing techniques.

These proficiencies will form a solid foundation, where students will study embedded systems and advanced data communications, carry out their own research and undertake a major practical project.

This course is also offered on a one-day-per-week part-time study basis for professional CPD for staff already in employment.

This course is part of the South Coast Institute of Technology (IoT), a partnership of colleges, universities and industry-leading employers to create new career opportunities in the technology sector. IoT courses like this one are precisely tailored to the needs of employers in the maritime, engineering and digital industries – industries which are hungry for talented new engineers, technologists, technicians and creatives like you.
