On this course you’ll study topics including electronic design, communications, software engineering, computer modelling, microelectronics, power generation and distribution, electrical machines, signal processing, renewable energy systems, smart building systems and instrumentation. You’ll study the fundamentals of engineering science, applicable mathematics, and practical and project skills as well as developing scientific and analytical skills by studying electrical energy systems, machines, control engineering and electronic systems design. In the final year, specialist options enable you to undertake real-life inquiry, investigation, and discovery through a specific research topic, project or consultancy making an original contribution to your discipline or related industry requirements. In the foundation year, you’ll study the fundamental maths, science and engineering principles that you’ll need at undergraduate level, and apply them to a range of different topics. You’ll learn through many of the same techniques used on the degree course, and familiarise yourself with Sheffield Hallam and its facilities ensuring that you’re ready to hit the ground running.

During your placement year you will pay a reduced fee of £1,200.
