Electronic Engineering with Nanotechnology with Foundation Year Beng (Hon)

**Foundation courses**<br/>A foundation year can develop your skills and make it easier to get started at university. It is an extra year of study at the start of your course that leads in to a full degree programme. It’s a great option if:<br/><br/>You don’t have the grades for a full degree course<br/>You have non-traditional qualifications or experience<br/>You’re starting university after some time away from education<br/>You’re looking for more support during the transition into university study.<br/><br/>**Life as a foundation year student**<br/>During a foundation year you’ll learn about your chosen subject, develop your study skills and get used to university life. On successful completion of your foundation year, you’ll be ready to progress to the first year of your degree course.<br/><br/>As a foundation year student, you’ll be a full student of the University and part of our community. You’ll have access to all our campus facilities and support.<br/><br/>**Why choose this course**<br/>• Our innovative BEng and MEng Electronic Engineering with Nanotechnology courses allow you to apply cutting-edge theory to existing engineering problems and technologies related to quantum information processing, sensors and advanced materials.<br/><br/>• You’ll combine professional engineering skills with scientific research methods, equipping you for industry. <br/><br/>• You’ll also have the opportunity to participate in our Professional Training placements scheme, which prepares students for roles in various technology-based sectors.<br/><br/>**What you will study**<br/>Whether youre interested graphene or quantum engineering, our BEng and MEng Electronic Engineering with Nanotechnology courses give you the specialist skills you need to work on modern nanoscale device fabrication.<br/><br/>After getting a firm grounding in electrical science and electronics, you’ll learn about:<br/><br/>• Nanotechnology<br/>• Power and energy efficient electronic devices<br/>• Production and characterisation of nanomaterials<br/>• Quantum science.<br/><br/>You can apply to study for either a BEng or MEng. The MEng builds on the BEng with a masters year and is a direct route to a masters qualification, known as an integrated masters.
