BEng (Hons) Computer Systems Engineering

Study mathematics, control, embedded systems and programming, then advance to system design, security and intelligent systems. Learn to design optimised hardwaresoftware for computing, sensing, IoT, AI, telecoms and autonomous systems, with applied projects building career-ready skills. Create the technologies that power modern life – from mobile phones and autonomous vehicles to smart infrastructure, medical systems and aviation. This degree combines electronics, computer engineering and systems design, giving you the knowledge and skills to shape the future of intelligent systems. Designed with input from industry and informed by world-leading research, the course provides a strong foundation in electronics, computing and complex electro-mechanical systems, while developing hands-on expertise in programming, circuit design and intelligent systems engineering. You’ll complement theory with practical experience, using industry standard hardware and software in facilities such as our Electronics and Control Lab, Teaching Cleanroom, Computer Labs, and iForge Makerspace. You’ll learn through lectures, tutorials, labs and projects, working individually and collaboratively.
