EU and International entry requirements

• If you require a Tier 4 visa to study in the UK, you must prove knowledge of the English language so that we can issue you a Certificate of Acceptance for Study (CAS). To do this, you will need an IELTS for UKVI or Trinity SELT test pass gained from a test centre approved by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) and on the Secure English Language Testing (SELT) list. This must have been taken and passed within two years from the date the CAS is made.

English language requirements

• IELTS: 6 (min 5.5 in all areas)
• Pearson: 59 (59 in all sub scores)
• BrunELT: 58% (min 55% in all areas)
• TOEFL: 79 (min R18, L17, S20, W17)

• Course delivery is a combination of theory, practical sessions and project work. In your first two years, you will gain solid knowledge and understanding of electronic engineering. You’ll also learn to work as part of a team through the engineering design group project. In later years, you move on to more advanced subjects such as embedded systems engineering. You will work on your individual project in your third year and your major group project in your MEng final year.
• Optional modules are indicative and available subject to numbers.
• This course can be studied 4 years full-time or 5 years full-time with placement, starting in September.
