BEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering
About this course
Electrical and electronic engineering is a discipline built on the physical principles that govern how electricity flows, how circuits behave, and how electronic components can be combined to create systems that sense, process, and control. These foundations are essential for anyone working in power systems, telecommunications, embedded computing, control engineering, or the design of any modern device from a smartphone to an industrial motor drive. The part-time Electrical and Electronic Engineering programme at Teesside University is designed for students who need to study flexibly, whether alongside work or other commitments. You will gain a basic understanding of the physical fundamentals of electrical engineering, together with the specific techniques needed to determine the behaviour of electric circuits. The curriculum covers the fundamentals of electrical circuit theory, the analysis of electrical circuits, and an understanding of simple analogue and digital circuits and their applications to engineering problems. You will study voltage, current, power, energy, resistance, and impedance, alongside magnetic fields and inductance, electric fields and capacitance, and Kirchhoff's Laws. Time-varying voltages and currents, their effects on inductors and capacitors, and the use of sinusoidal voltage and current analysis are all addressed, giving you the solid grounding in AC theory that is central to electrical engineering practice. Graduates from electrical and electronic engineering programmes pursue careers in power systems, electronics design, telecommunications, industrial automation, control engineering, and energy systems. The part-time mode is well suited to technicians and engineers already working in relevant industries who want to formalise their knowledge with an academic qualification, and many graduates find that the degree opens pathways to more senior technical and management roles within their sector.
