Communications technology is one of the most sophisticated and rapidly changing application areas of electronics. It pervades our daily lives through mass communication networks as well as person-to-person communications based on fixed and wireless networks. Communications also now involve a wide range of information, not just data, but also voice, multi-media and video.
This course will prepare you for a challenging career in electronic and communications engineering in areas such as design support, development and production. It has a particular focus on communications engineering, particularly in the latter years.
Subject include engineering science, mathematics, digital age technology, communication systems, electric circuits & devices, electronic systems, software and computer systems, electronics, software design, digital communications engineering, digital electronics & VLSI, signals & systems, microcomputer systems, DSP applications, and business.
You’ll carry out an engineering project in third year, which gives you a valuable insight into the solution of real-world engineering problems.
You choose one optional module in third year. The typical modules available are Microelectronic Materials and Devices, Wireless Systems, Digital System Integration, Microprocessors and Embedded Systems.
All the technical subjects involve lab activities, which will enhance your knowledge and skills.
