BEng (Hons) Computers with Electronics (including Foundation Year)

Open to all students, our BSc Computer Science (including foundation year) is suitable for you if your academic qualifications do not yet meet our entrance requirements for an undergraduate course. This four-year course includes a foundation year (Year Zero), followed by a further three years of undergraduate study. Our compulsory English language and academic skills module supplements your academic subjects. Ranked among the top Computer Science (and Information Systems) departments on the planet according to the QS World University Rankings (2017), our BEng Computers with Electronics combines the study of computers with electronics (particularly digital electronics). You share many modules with our BEng Computer Systems Engineering but also draw upon material from our electronics and telecommunications courses, without requiring A-level mathematics. You study computer hardware and software, operating systems, logic design and embedded systems. This degree is accredited by both the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) and the British Computer Society (BCS). These accreditations are increasingly sought by employers, and provide the first stage towards eventual professional registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
