In this forever technologically advancing world, electrical engineers play an integral role in the development of our daily lives and the future. With this comes responsibility to minimise the environmental damage, that’s why sustainability and innovation is at the core of this course.Whether you’re designing parts of a performance car, a space craft, or a new medical device, on this degree, you’ll learn the skills to become an engineer capable of imagining and creating ground-breaking products.Why study BEng (Hons) Electrical and Electronic Engineering at BNUIndustry inputThis Electrical and Electronic Engineering course has been developed to mirror today’s Engineering Design industry and continues to work closely with its own Industry Advisory Board to ensure the curriculum and teaching is relevant. You’ll also have the opportunity to engage with industry-professionals and practitioners, as well as our working alumni. You’ll benefit from guest lectures, masterclasses and workshop sessions, live briefs, site visits and where possible, a contribution to the assessment of your work.FacilitiesDuring your time with us you’ll have access to our state-of-the-art facilities, including:MechanicalStructural Lab to include different Structural Test kits that will measure Deflection of Beams & Cantilevers, Bending Stress and Bending Moments etc.Materials and Manufacturing Lab to include 3D Metal Printer, Hardness Tester, Universal Tensile Testing, Impact Tester, Milling and Drill machinesFluids and Hydraulics Lab to include Digital Hydraulic Bench, Axial Flow Pump, Recirculating Flume, Hydro-electric Turbine and Surface Tension Balance. Process and Energy Lab to include HVAC unit, Air Conditioning Trainer, Process Trainer and Photovoltaic CellsConcrete & Geotechnical Testing Lab to include Slump Test, Concrete Density, Porosity, Flexural and Compression Testing, Soil Shear, Grading and Moisture Tests. Electrical and Electronics Lab to include Power and Energy Electronics, Modern Electrical Machine Systems, Three Phase Power SystemsAutomation Lab to include Dobot Smart Industry 4.0 Workstation, pneumatic, electro-pneumatic, PLC systemsImmersive Virtual Reality CAD LabStudy OptionsThis degree runs as a full-time course, with a foundation year. This is structured across four years. We also offer the course with an additional placement year in your fourth year. This five-year option allows you to get hands-on within the industry, before you complete your studies. What will I studyThis practical and hands-on course incorporates innovation and creativity at every stage of learning. During your time with us you’ll gain an extensive knowledge and critical understanding of professional ethics, social and cultural values in engineering.You’ll study the principles, characteristics, control design requirements and applications of instrumentation and power systems used in industry. During your time with us you’ll create, simulate, build and test prototype circuits and systems using printed circuit boards, MATLAB Simulink, LTSpice and electronic laboratory equipment.Modules are centred around industrial systems, analogue, digital and power electronics with basic engineering. With a focus on sustainability, you’ll learn skills to help you identify and solve electrical engineering problems, whilst meeting the needs of the industry and the forward-thinking sector.You’ll get to grips with industry-standard equipment including Zero Energy Systems, Power electronics, Machines and Drives, Industry 4.0, Mechatronic, Robotics, PLC and electro-mechanical rigs to provide real-time hands-on experiencesThroughout the course you’ll also have the opportunity to work on live briefs set by engineering employers, all of which can later be added to your portfolio.
