About this course

It’s impossible to imagine a world without electronic and electrical engineering. It covers everything from tiny integrated circuits in household items and mobile phones, to the large-scale utilities that power our homes. The industry is fast paced and rapidly changing with a focus on renewable and sustainable energy sources. An electronic and electrical degree from NTU can put you at the forefront of this exciting technological revolution by providing the skills and knowledge needed to be a great engineer.

During this course, you will develop your knowledge and engineering skills by participating in several industry-led projects. These are set by external industry experts to make you think, work and behave like a professional engineer. You’ll learn to use latest digital technologies to deliver creative and effective solutions for a wide range of engineering problems in electronic and electrical domains.

We’ve embedded sustainability as a core part of our curriculum and you’ll spend time looking at solutions for environmental-related issues.

The Grand Challenge, a concept design project posed by industry, marks the end of your first and second years. You will present your results at an end of year show before focusing on an individual research project. This forms a substantial part of the Masters level modules for the MEng qualification.

With an integrated Masters (MEng) qualification, you’ll take your studies to the next level by studying undergraduate and Masters-level material alongside an in-depth research project.

With the focus firmly on problem-solving and live project work, we aim to give you industry-like experience before you graduate. Who wouldn’t want that on their CV?

Engineering your future

How you're taught

You’ll learn through a mix of:

lectures - covering the key theories

seminars - smaller-group sessions perfect for learning key skills and collaborative working

practical sessions - using our extensive range of industry-standard facilities

workshops - this includes surgery sessions where you’ll meet with your lecturer in small groups to discuss any problems or work through challenging topics.

The rest of your time will be spent carrying out independent study such as reading textbooks and lecture notes, and working on exercises.

A placement year may be taken between year 2 and year 3 of study.

All our engineering courses are taught through problem-solving and developing the right abilities to make you the very best engineer you can be. This is achieved by developing your engineering skills and knowledge through participation in several industry-led projects each year. These projects are put forward by industry to make you think, work and behave like a professional engineer. You'll also get to use the equipment used by engineering organisations across the globe.

These projects will inspire your creativity and give you experience in taking your idea from concept through to production. Year One projects include:

RevEng – Reverse Engineering

You will deconstruct everyday objects in order to gain understanding in design principles and consider potential improvements in terms of sustainability, manufacturing processes and cost.

Mars Lander

Design a landing system to carry a given payload from orbit to the surface of Mars, using the engineering fundamental principles you have learned during your Year One modules.

Laser cutting, 3D printing (Bridge, Light Pier support)

An industry standard software package will be used to design and model a bridge and a light pier support structure. You will be trained in using laser cutting and 3D printing, to build prototypes. Using the skills you gained during your modules you will make structures to withstand a given load.

Grand Challenge

Mark the end of your first year with this concept design project set by industry. You’ll present your results at an end of year show.

Research-informed teaching

Our research is tackling real-world issues – and the people working on this research will be teaching you. It also informs the subjects you’ll be studying with us so you can be sure your knowledge will be cutting-edge in your field. In the last Research Excellence Framework (REF 2021) - the UK's system for assessing the quality and impact of research in universities - we’re proud that 98% of NTU's Engineering submission was assessed to be world-leading or internationally excellent.

Learn a new language

Alongside your study you also have the opportunity to learn a new language. The University Language Programme (ULP) is available to all students and gives you the option of learning a totally new language or improving the skills you already have. Find out more about the ULP.

How you're assessed

People excel in different ways, and we want everybody to have the best possible chance of success. That’s why we’ve adopted a range of assessment types, including:

coursework, including group projects, case studies, dissertation and other assignments

practical assessments, such as individual and group presentations, laboratory assessments and lab reports

exams and tests, including formal exams, written tests and multiple-choice.

Contact hours

For each 20-credit module, you’ll spend about 200 hours learning overall. Around 40 of those hours will be taught in labs, lectures or seminars. The rest of the time is for independent study, reading, research, or working on assignments.

Careers and employability

NTU is one of the most employment-focused universities. Increasingly, employers want to recruit graduates who have real-world work experience. That’s why all of our courses, across every subject area, offer you a work experience opportunity. Our experts help build and support your future with a range of career programmes and events.

On this course, after your second year, you will have the opportunity to take a year's work placement (sandwich placement). This will give you the chance to gain vital experience and put your knowledge into practice. You're also twice as likely to secure a graduate job within six months if you take a work placement.

You'll be supported and assessed throughout your placement year and will write a reflective report and diary at the end of your placement. When you successfully complete your placement, you will be eligible to receive an additional award of a Diploma in Professional Practice.

Find out more about work placements.

You’ve probably already got some idea of the career path you want to take. Many of our graduates go on to work in engineering-based roles, but it’s worth remembering that the skills you learn on an engineering degree are transferable to a variety of careers. Research, presentation, team working and analytical skills are highly valued by employers in various professions, both related and unrelated to engineering.

Engineering graduates are in demand as they are attractive to a wide range of employers due to their analytical thinking, problem-solving, and strong numeracy skills.

Many graduates also choose to undertake further study on Masters courses, or MPhil and PhD research degrees.

Employability Promise

Personalised support, one-on-one coaching and industry-specific advice – it’s all part of our Employability Promise. And it doesn’t end when you leave NTU – you’ll have access to all our careers services for three years after you graduate (conditions apply).
