The School offers undergraduate programmes in:

• BEng/MEng Electronic Engineering.

• BEng/MEng Electronics and Communication Engineering (Telecommunications)

• BEng/MEng Electronic and Computer Engineering.

• BEng/MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering.

Intake for all of the above programmes is in September.

Admission Requirements

• A-levels with a minimum pass of Grade C or better in Mathematics, Physics and one other subject (excluding General Studies) for entry to all programmes.

• STPM with a minimum pass of Grade B or better in Mathematics, Physics and one other subject for entry to all programmes.

• Other qualifications will be considered on an individual basis.

• HND and other equivalent Diploma/Advanced Diploma holders, normally with an overall average of Grade B or better and a Distinction in Mathematics will be considered for direct entry into second year of the programmes.

English Laguage Requirements

All programmes are taught in English and the minimum requirements are given below.

• IELTS score of at least 6.0 with a minimum score of at least 5.0 in each element

• TOEFL score of at least 550 or computerised test equivalent of 213

• SPM English, minimum of B4

• O-level or GCSE in English, minimum of Grade C

Other English Language qualifications may be accepted and further information on this can be obtained from the Admissions Tutor.

IELTS is administered through British Council offices in many countries. For information about your local test centre contact the British Council in your own country. Information is available on a web site or telephone the British Council in Malaysia. Please note that you should apply to do the "Academic" version of the test.

TOEFL is administered by the Educational Testing Service in the USA. Information is available from the web site or telephone ++1 609 7717330. Please note that we will not accept a TOEFL result without a TWE score.

The decision on taking the MEng or BEng is taken at the end of the second year of the Programme.

There is an exchange programme which allows students to spend part of their course at the UK campus. This is normally available to students during the second year of the programme or third year if studying for MEng. For the exchange, tuition fees would be at Malaysian Campus rates but students will need to provide for higher cost-of-living in the UK.

Programme Details

BEng/MEng (Honours) Electronic Engineering

Electronics Engineering has its basis in physical principles such as Maxwell's equations and band theory. An Electrical Engineer will be equally familiar with the behaviour of electrons in energy bands as he will with the programming languages required to control microprocessors and microcontrollers.

Due to the wide range of topics under the general heading of "Electrical Engineering" the degree is commonly divided into various courses which reflect emphasis in certain broad areas of specialization. In all University of Nottingham campuses where the Electrical Engineering degree is offered, the areas of specialization and the corresponding degree awarded is listed below.

One of the main differences between Electronics Engineering and the other fields of Electrical Engineering listed above is the emphasis on physical electronics, and the design of electronic systems. This knowledge skill set will enable the graduate Engineer to excel in fields where electronics systems are used to design and control manufacturing equipment such as those in the semiconductor industry.

The School of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at The University of Nottingham has a long history of research and consultancy especially in the fields of electrical machines medical electronics, optics and electromagnetic compatibility. The programme in England is led by academics of the highest quality and this is reflected in the high standing that the University has in any league table which publishes the relative standing of Universities in the United Kingdom.

BEng/MEng (Honours) Electronic and Communications (Telecommunication) Engineering

Electronics and Communications Engineering has its basis in physical principles such as Maxwell's equations and newer techniques such as pulse code modulation and methods used in mobile communications such as TDMA. An Electronics and Communications Engineer will be equally familiar with traditional radio or analogue communications as he is with the concepts of artificial intelligence in mobile communications networks.
