Electronic and Computer Engineering including a Foundation Year BEng (Hons)

University of Kent

Advancements in electronics and computing are transforming the way we live, and see the world. With this BEng in Electronic and Computer Engineering, you’ll be immersed in both - empowering you to understand, design and create the systems of the future.

This combination of electronic engineering, software, and advanced electronic hardware knowledge will give you an all-round perspective on core and emerging fields, from robotics and AI, to microcomputer technology, Internet of Things (IoT), industrial automation and sensor technologies.

At Kent, we understand that technology is always evolving. So our course prioritises hands-on, practical learning that will empower you to enter the workplace with confidence.

You will apply your knowledge to real-world systems, from autonomous vehicles to IoT devices. You’ll also work on live projects, using advanced tools and technologies as part of research or industry partnerships.

With practical, problem-solving experience, you’ll understand the factors that influence pioneering modern projects - from the importance of sustainability to the social and economic impacts of systems. You’ll also develop the teamwork and communication skills required to be part of a team that gets things done.
