Electronic Information Engineering Strand Course Structure
This M.Sc. course can be taken as either a full-time one-year or part-time two to three-year postgraduate course and consists of taught modules worth 60 credits and a project worth 30 credits.
A specialism in Computational Engineering is available for students selecting at least 15 ECTS from the Computational Engineering strand. MSc candidates complete a substantial project and submit a report which accounts for 30 credits. In addition to direct entry to the MSc, parallel Postgraduate Certificate, (30 ECTS), and Postgraduate Diploma (60 ECTS) entry routes are available for a direct separate application. For students who successfully complete the postgraduate certificate and postgraduate diploma, there is an option to rescind these awards and apply to complete an MSc. Part-time students may follow the staged award path over 3 years of study with a possible gap of up to one year in between.
Some of the module options in either semester may be withdrawn from time to time and some new modules may be added, subject to demand. These will be updated over the summer for the coming year.
