Electronic and Computer Systems Engineering MEng
Description
H613 4 year or H612 5 year with DIS
Computer systems are more than just machines that sit on desktops; many are used as constituent parts within much larger industrial machines and engineering systems.
This Computer Systems Engineering course is designed for those students who are interested in gaining an appreciation for the whole computer discipline rather than specialising in one aspect of it. As the title suggests, a systems or holistic approach is taken, wherein topics such as human factors, ergonomics, marketing, financial management and business studies play a prominent role alongside the main technical disciplines such as programming, software engineering and electronics.
The Electronic and Computing Industry is worldwide. Therefore, a degree in Electronic and Computer Systems Engineering can be a ticket to a truly international career.
