Electronic Engineering and Computer Science

About this course

Electronic engineering and computer science is a degree that sits at the interface of hardware and software, and it addresses the fact that in modern systems the two are inseparable. Electronic engineers design and build the physical systems that sense, process, and communicate information. Computer scientists design the algorithms, software, and architectures that make those physical systems intelligent and useful. As the boundaries between hardware and software continue to blur, particularly in areas like embedded systems, the Internet of Things, autonomous vehicles, and wearable technology, graduates who understand both are increasingly valuable. At Aston University, this three-year, full-time programme includes a sandwich placement year, a year abroad, and work placement experience, all of which give it a strong professional and international dimension.
