Electronic Engineering (Top-up) BEng(Hons)

The global electronics industry makes a huge contribution to the economy. It is at the heart of everything from manufacturing processes, to the provision of services, green technologies and logistics management, to name a few. These industries are looking to the future of engineering, and this is where you could come in.

For those with good knowledge of engineering, this top-up course could help you build on your existing skills. A one-year degree, you will be expected to have completed prior university or higher education study in a related subject. The course aims for you to continue your studies and interest in the subject area and covers a broad range of topics, including electronic, digital and analogue systems.

You will be taught by professional engineers, many of whom have years of industry experience. In the 2025 National Student Survey, this subject area ranked top in Yorkshire for learning resources. During the course, you will work on a selected individual research/design project, with the support of your academic supervisor.

It is possible to align this with one of the Master's team projects, which involve the design, build and friendly and competitive testing of either a road, airborne or rail vehicle, for example, for example, Team HARE, Team Hawk or HudRail.
