    institution

    Staffordshire University

    Staffordshire University got its start in 1906 on land provided by Alfred Bolton, a noted industrialist. Initially only mining classes were taught, but a pottery curriculum followed in 1907. Expansion was rapid, and in 1914 the Cadman Building was opened. This housed the Central School of Science and Technology. It became North Staffordshire Polytechnic in […]

    Course Summary

    Staffordshire University’s BEng program in Electrical and Electronic Engineering is just the thing to prepare technically minded students for a career in the construction, manufacturing, transport or renewable energy industries. You’ll study construction, power infrastructure, transport networks, telecommunications and the unique technological and economic constraints of renewable energy production.

    Trained engineers are always in high demand, both in the UK and abroad. The aerospace and automotive industries, both traditional and renewable power generation and transmission, and electrical or electronic engineering at the commercial level all need graduate engineers, and the reputation of Staffordshire University will give you a substantial edge when applying for the best roles.

    You have three degree pathways open to you:

    • A BEng (Hons) in Electrical Engineering
    • A BEng (Hons) in Electronic Engineering
    • A combined BEng (Hons) in Electrical and Electronic Engineering

    The first two pathways are already fully accredited by all major UK bodies, and the combined pathway’s accreditation status is pending.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.

    Course Outline

    This degree program is typically delivered over 3 years at full time.

    Year 1

    Your first year will see you gaining familiarity with the mathematics, theory and processes behind engineering generally. It will mostly follow the pattern of the first year of all of the Staffordshire’s BEng degree programs, so you’ll gain a basic understanding of Mechatronics, Aeronautical Engineering and a wide range of other specialties as well.

    Year 2

    In year 2, your specialised Electronic and or Electrical Engineering studies really begin. You might study advanced techniques such as electronic simulation and control, or the latest developments in industrial electrical engineering. You will also have the option of taking a working placement in industry, and learning real world job skills.

    Year 3

    Your final year will see you taking the most advanced modules offered at the BEng level, as well as conducting your final engineering project. You will have the opportunity to present your work (and yourself) to industry leaders at the GradEx event, as well.

    Learning & Teaching

    Taught modules will include large lectures and smaller seminars. They will often also include skills workshops and practical laboratory work, depending on the subject matter of the module in question. Seminars pick up where the lectures leave off, allowing groups of 16 to 18 students to drill much deeper into the material than is possible in a large lecture hall. You will have several opportunities to test yourself with practice assessment before the final assessment.

    Career Possiblities

     

    Nearly every industry in the UK depends on a steady stream of qualified engineering graduates. That means you’ll have a wide range of career paths open to you. Recent Staffordshire BEng graduates have taken exciting and rewarding roles in the defence industry (and the Ministry of Defence itself), in telecommunications, building and construction, in transportation infrastructure, in the distribution and transmission of electrical power and of course in the blossoming renewable energy industry.

    Entry Credit

    Successful completion will result in a 3 year BEng degree.

    Applicants must typically have earned 112 UCAS Tariff Points and A Levels in Mathematics, Physics or Engineering, but other qualifications are also accepted. The full list of accepted qualifications can be found here.

    All classes are taught in English, and international students will be required to show proficiency in English by scoring well on an approved test.
