Course Description

Do you want to study both computer science and electronic engineering, developing a broad skill-set across both disciplines? This unique programme includes the digital design elements of the electronic engineering programmes, but also emphasises computer systems and software. We focus on the increasingly important areas of embedded systems, network computing, internet protocols and applications. In the first year you’ll cover the foundations of each discipline, with modules in programming, circuit design, communications and signals. With a wide choice of modules in your second and final years, you’re free to direct your studies towards your aims and interests. Spend your third year working for a public- or private-sector organisation in a role directly related to your studies and gain solid work experience. Our students have worked with companies including: Accenture, Canon Europe, GlaxoSmithKline, IBM, The Walt Disney Company. In the final year, you’ll design and carry out an individual project based on your own interests and linked to current research areas within the schools.

Queen Mary University of London welcomes applications from students currently studying Level 3 BTEC qualifications and will consider you for entry to the majority of our undergraduate courses. The typical entry requirements will vary according to the course you are applying for. Some of our courses require specific subject knowledge which you may not be able to cover as part of a Level 3 BTEC qualification and we may therefore require additional Level 3 qualifications to ensure that you are suitably prepared for relevant courses. A small number of our courses do not accept BTEC qualifications for entry, either as a standalone qualification, or in combination with other qualifications at Level 3. Information on our typical entry requirements and guidance for applying can be found at http://www.qmul.ac.uk/undergraduate/entry/btec/ If you are at all unsure about the acceptability of your BTEC qualification for entry, please contact the Admissions team for individual advice ([email protected]).
