Electrical and Electronic Engineering (BEng) at Cardiff University

Studying electrical and electronic engineering puts you at the centre of a vibrant and fast-moving discipline of relevance to industries such as electronics, information technology, manufacturing, energy generation and supply, transport, and communications.

This research-led course balances laboratory sessions with lectures and hands-on practical experiences. Our strong industrial links offer opportunities for work placements and possible sponsorship during your period of study.

This course is reviewed annually with input from our industrial partners to ensure that the modules taught are at the cutting edge and reflect the current state of the industry.

Note that if Chartered status is important to you, an MEng course may offer a quicker, more direct route than the BEng course.

Other electrical and electronic engineering courses available may include:

• a fast-track towards attaining Chartered Engineer status with the Institution of Engineering and Technology if you choose the MEng course
• the opportunity to follow a sandwich year in industry if you choose the relevant four-year BEng or five-year MEng degree option
• the opportunity to study abroad at a partner institution for one semester if you choose the relevant MEng (International) degree option
