Electronic and electrical engineers invent and create the technology that typifies today's high-tech society, from devices and systems that monitor our health and well-being, to global data networks, driverless cars and renewable energy. The BEng gives you a broad education in the engineering, mathematics, physics and computer science underpinning these technologies, whilst at the same time giving you the skills needed to put your theoretical understanding into practice.

In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 15 or 30 credits, adding up to a total of 120 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 30-credit module is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

All our degree programmes have a common first and second year covering material fundamental to electronic and electrical engineering. You can make a final choice between remaining on the BEng or joining one of our MEng programmes during your second year (subject to your grades and any visa requirements if applicable). Applying initially for a MEng gives you the most control over your plans.

Project work is undertaken every year including an individual final year project which can range from original research to design and development of new software or devices. In the first two years projects are team-based in the form of Engineering Challenges and week-long Scenarios where you apply your theoretical knowledge to solving real problems.

This degree is part of UCL's Intergrated Engineering Programme (IEP), a teaching framework that engages students in specialist and interdisciplinary engineering activities designed to create well-rounded graduates with a strong grasp of the fundamentals of their discipline and a broad understanding of the complexity and context of engineering problems. Students register for a core discipline, but also engage in activities that span departments so the development of fundamental technical knowledge takes place alongside specialist and interdisciplinary research-based projects and professional skills. This creates degrees encouraging professional development, with an emphasis on design and challenging students to apply knowledge to complex problems.
