Overview

This course allows you to benefit from Sunderland’s teaching of engineering while you live in your own country.

The content of the course mirrors the Sunderland-based equivalent course, BEng (Hons) Electronic and Electrical Engineering.

Our courses delivered at study centres share the same ethos, material and approach as those delivered at Sunderland itself. So this course is a way to gain the benefits of an education from our University without having to move to Sunderland.

This course is for people looking for skills and knowledge in electronic and electrical engineering as well as in management. It provides particular emphasis to the fields of digital and analogue electronics, industrial control systems design and electrical power systems and machines.

Please contact your Study Centre for the duration and mode of this course.
