Electronic Engineering degrees abroad

Electronic engineering is the study of electronic circuits, components, and devices. Programs in electronic engineering equip students with the skills and knowledge they’ll need to work at the forefront of cutting-edge design and development.

As an electronic engineering student, you’ll learn how to plan, create, and test electrical components and systems. You’ll develop your theoretical expertise in areas including electromagnetics, digital electronics, and power electronics. You’ll then apply what you’ve learned to a wide variety of modern technologies, ranging from smartphones to sustainable energy.

By earning your degree abroad, you’ll appreciate just how crucial electronic engineering is to the operations and activities of societies around the world. You’ll see how different countries use electronic engineering to tackle issues like connectivity, health, and sustainability and will gain the global awareness and industry insight needed to kickstart an international career.

Electronic Engineering program structure

You can choose to study a BEng in electronic engineering over a minimum of three years. However, most courses recommend that students complete an additional year-long industry placement. As such, it’s common for undergraduate programs to last four years.

You can also opt to pursue an MEng. An MEng is an integrated bachelor’s and master’s program that is studied over four years. The first two years of an MEng typically mirror what’s covered on the BEng. In the final half of your degree, you’ll dive into more advanced and extensive modules.

The highest formal qualification available in electronic engineering is a PhD. These research-based programs can take between four and seven years of study.

To provide you with a sound theoretical and practical grounding in the subject, teaching is delivered through a combination of lectures, laboratories, workshops, seminars, and tutorials. Assessment methods will vary from module to module, but you’ll probably encounter written exams, essays, presentations, practical assessments, and independent projects.

Every university will offer a slightly different selection of electronic engineering modules. Therefore, no two programs will look exactly the same. However, most will cover the following core topics:

  • Analog electronics
  • Analysis of circuits
  • Digital electronics
  • Electromagnetic fields
  • Computer programming
  • Engineering design and practice
  • Signals and communications
  • Power engineering
