Postgraduate Module Selection 2025/26

Our taught MEng in Electronic & Computer Engineering (MECE) programme is highly flexible, allowing participants to customise their programme based on preferred specialisation areas and to choose from an offering of a wide range of modules. Students may tailor their selection of modules to best align with, or to expand, their existing skill set. To meet the overall Masters programme requirements, complete eight taught modules (of which four or more must be Level 9 modules) plus a Masters project and the Research Training and Project Planning module.

Choose between the General Masters, with maximum flexibility of module choice, or five Majors options in specialised areas. To meet the requirements for a Major, complete the four core major modules listed below, plus any four other 7.5 credit taught modules, plus the Major Project and the Research Training and Project Planning module.  Recommended options for each major are listed below, however, students are free to tailor their optional module choices.

Qualifier students choose from the same set of 7.5 credit modules (full list below), but do not take a project module until they have transferred onto the MEng programme.
