Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Electronic and Electrical Engineering (Energy Systems) (H655)

This Electronic and Electrical Engineering (Energy Systems) BEng degree is a modern course that has been developed to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to work and research in electronic and electrical engineering with specialisation in sustainable electrical energy systems. 

Students will gain a good understanding of the different engineering areas, giving them the opportunity to learn more about the fundamental engineering subjects such as design, structures, materials, fluid mechanics, electronics and maths and gain skills in technical drawing.

By specialising in energy systems students will learn to design energy systems and apply them to electrical energy programmes. 

Students will have access to modern technical facilities including computer, electronics, and power and control laboratories where they work on their experiments. The latest industry standard engineering software packages are available for them to use in dedicated computer clusters.

Brunel's BEng electronic and electrical engineering (energy systems) course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). This professional engineering institution ensures that students engineering degree meets the academic requirement to qualify as a professional engineer. This accredited BEng degree in electronic and electrical engineering can be studied full-time over three years, or four years with a placement year. The BEng degree meets the educational requirement to become an Incorporated Engineer (IEng).

Brunel encourages students to pursue the placement year option. This time in industry helps them to further prepare for the world of work and they’ll have a year’s worth of invaluable professional experience when they graduate. If students decide to go on an engineering placement year, they will have the opportunity to work in an engineering or technology company.
