Software Engineering with Electronics

Our new Software Engineering with Electronics BEng is designed for students who wish to enter the world of computer systems engineering, where a mix of hardware and software skills is highly advantageous in today’s job market.<br/><br/>The course will teach the physical realities and use of real-world electronic components, interfaces and systems in addition to developing the core skills required to write efficient secure code for machines and devices.<br/><br/>Jobs traditionally associated with software engineering or electronic engineering have changed significantly due to a number of reasons, including the increasing universal use of smart digital technologies. Today, engineers that can develop novel solutions using both software and hardware technologies are increasingly in demand across all industries. Successful completion of our course will allow you to do just this!<br/><br/>Our Software Engineering with Electronics BEng is focused on the implementation and programming of the underlying hardware and system layer that all computer systems run on, whether they are an Internet of Things (IoT) smart sensing device, an autonomous robot, a gaming system, a smart home hub or a medical imaging machine.<br/><br/>Through the course, you’ll develop and put into practice essential practical and theoretical hardware engineering know-how in addition to supporting software skills. With these skills and knowledge, you’ll be able to develop intelligent products that will sense and monitor properties of the real-world, develop sustainable engineering solutions or control hardware in a safe, sustainable, timely and power efficient manner.<br/><br/>Our practical Software Engineering and Electronics BEng will provide you with hands-on activities, including laboratory skill development sessions and work-based industry-inspired design projects.<br/><br/>**Top reasons to study with us**<br/><br/><br/>- Choose your own path – Our flexible course allows you to focus your study to your interests, while still getting a broad education in both computing systems engineering and computer science. For Example, you can choose to specialise in robotics, deepen your understanding in digital electronics or broaden your software engineering know-how<br/><br/><br/>- Get real-life work experience – Enhance your employability and put your skills into practice by completing a year in industry and participating in the many project-based learning modules during the course<br/><br/><br/>- Excellent career prospects – Career prospects for students with coding and hardware engineering skills are excellent, potential graduate roles include robotics engineer, development engineer, systems engineer, software engineer or Internet of Things development engineer<br/><br/><br/>- Path to becoming a professional engineer – Successful completion of this course will enable you to progress your journey towards becoming a proactive member of the professional engineering community<br/>
