Electrical & Electronic Engineering with Management MEng (Hons)

Imperial College of Science

Electrical and electronic engineers are at the forefront of the challenges to connect our world, to design more efficient and affordable technology, and to help us live healthy and sustainably.

Our department has a strong culture of enterprise, and our researchers and alumni are recognised for their commercially successful innovations.

This degree will give you an insight into engineering the commercial world, with a programme of business modules combined with technical subjects. Study time is split 50:50 between technical and business modules in years three and four. You’ll study topics such as accounting, corporate finance and economics, delivered by Imperial College Business School.

Your first and second year includes labs and problem-solving classes designed to equip you with a solid theoretical base covering analogue and digital electronics, power electronics, communications and control, alongside a strong focus on mathematics and computing, and practical hardware and software engineering skills.

In your third year, you’ll select from a number of focused technical modules alongside your Business programme, so you can choose to take a wide-ranging programme of study, or to concentrate your expertise in a particular field.

You’ll also have the option to take a six-month industrial placement and experience engineering in action, or to be part of a team project acting as consultants on a design challenge proposed by an industrial client. This involves creating a pre-production prototype of an innovative product or technical solution.

The final year of the MEng course offers an extensive range of advanced specialist modules inspired by the very latest research, together with your business modules.

You’ll apply your knowledge and skills to increasingly ambitious project work throughout the course, ultimately showcasing your imagination, originality and independent engineering expertise in a substantial final year project of your choice.
