COURSE CURRICULUM

This MSc program in Electrical and Electronic Engineering is designed to equip students with a deep and practical understanding of key technologies shaping the modern engineering landscape. Core modules such as Power Systems Analysis and Technology Integration and Interfacing explore the operation and design of contemporary energy systems, with a particular focus on sustainability, grid reliability, and intelligent interfacing using sensors, microcontrollers, and real-world stimuli. Modules like Design of Advanced Electronic Systems and Embedded Electronics and Communications provide a comprehensive grounding in the theory, experimentation, and implementation of electronic circuits and embedded technologies, with practical tasks that simulate real-world engineering scenarios. The Research, Planning and Communication module plays a critical role in shaping students’ ability to design, manage, and communicate complex engineering research, which is further developed through the Individual Research Project, a substantial independent undertaking that challenges students to apply all aspects of their learning to solve a real engineering problem. International students benefit from the Academic English for Postgraduates module, which builds essential language and academic skills aligned with UK higher education standards. To complement these foundational components, students can select from specialist modules such as Power Electronic Converters, Electrical Machines and Drives, Human & Machine Robotics, and Machine Sensing, allowing them to tailor the course to their interests in power systems, automation, intelligent machines, or control systems. Additionally, the Strategy and Management module provides crucial insight into the business and organisational context of engineering, preparing graduates to take on leadership roles by understanding competitive strategy, corporate governance, and operational planning. Altogether, this program delivers a balanced curriculum that integrates advanced technical knowledge, research competence, and strategic awareness, preparing graduates for impactful careers in areas such as smart grid development, embedded systems, power electronics, robotics, and broader industrial innovation with a strong sustainability focus.
