This is a technically-enhanced course with technical courses at postgraduate level. It is a preparation for a career in advanced technical work. This course combines the technical content of the 3-year course with the equivalent of a full year of management and business studies and is designed for those students who wish to have a career in the organistion of engineering activity. A course combining the first three years of technical study at Imperial College with a fourth year in a continental European university with the aim of gaining proficiency in a foreign language and the ability to undertake technical study in it. This is a 3-year degree course that covers a large range of topics in electrical and electronic engineering.
Teaching is via a mixture of lectures, subject tutorials, laboratory work and project work.
Formal teaching is confined to terms one and two in each year. Term three is reserved for examinations followed by full-time project work. The curriculum also contains a substantial amount of computing. The EEE degree is an excellent preparation for a career in electronics and integrated circuit designs, communications and signal processing, electrical and power systems, software and systems engineering, computer systems, management consultancy, technical and patent law, or almost any other profession that requires good analytical and professional skills. It covers electronic engineering and computing in roughly equal measure, and is given jointly by Department of EEE and Department of Computing.
