University guides confirm University of Sheffield as one of UK’s leading universities. The Virgin 2007 Alternative Guide to British Universities, for instance, says that “Sheffield is a top university across the board”. Teaching quality assessments rate its teaching very highly across a wide range of subjects, and official research
assessments confirm its reputation as a centre for worldclass research in many disciplines. Sheffield’s research partners and clients include Boeing, Rolls Royce, Unilever, Boots, AstraZeneca, GSK, ICI, Slazenger, and many more household names, as well as UK and overseas government agencies and charitable foundations.

Electronic engineers concern themselves with the manufacture, design and management of the electronic circuits and systems that contribute to almost all areas of human civilisation. From popular examples of technology, such as the personal computer, communication satellites and the mobile telephone, to lesser know examples, such as semiconductors, nano-technology and bio-electrics, engineers in this professional seek the invention, enhancement and improvement of electronically-based items useful to our race.

On the other hand, electrical engineers are responsible for designing systems that are able to generate and move relatively large amounts of power between points with separations from miles to a few millimeters. One key area of their knowledge is how to use the laws governing electromagnetics to convert energy into motion and back. However, in general, a good electronics graduate will be a competent electrical engineer and vice-versa. This is because both sets of engineers will be taught to use the same theories and tools, namely mathematics, physics, electromagnetics, circuit theory, digital signal progressing control theory and computer science.

The University of Sheffield MEng (Hons) Electronic & Electrical Engineering (1+3) programme is designed to provide a wide range of engineering and management skills that involves technical problem solving and implementation of appropriate solutions.

Career Opportunities
Graduates of the MEng (Hons) Electronic & Electrical Engineering (1+3) programme are highly sought after for positions in new product design and innovation, transport system development, management of offshore utilities and industrial automation and control.

The continued worldwide growth in all aspects of electrical and electronic technology means that graduates are able to pursue an extensive and exciting range of engineering and other professional careers. Graduates also have the required skills and knowledge to contribute to the growing requirement to reduce energy consumption and produce less environmental pollution.
