*Based on data from the past three years (HESA Graduate Outcomes 21-24)

> One of the best decisions I made while deciding on a career route, was to study electronic and electrical engineering at Leeds Beckett University. I had all the essential practical and theoretical work as an undergraduate student to grow and develop into the role I am in as an engineer at Jaguar Land Rover (JLR). Modules like the Engineering Design Project at Farnell provided me with the experience to utilise many engineering processes and taught me the principles of design.

I was also offered the opportunity to take optional modules such as project management, which I currently apply in industry."
