Admission is normally restricted to graduates who have achieved an upper second class honours degree (2.1), or better, in engineering, science, computing, statistics, mathematics or a related discipline. Well-qualified candidates or industry professionals from other numerate disciplines who have sufficient knowledge of computational aspects of engineering and science, may also be considered.

We are in the next Industrial revolution and the challenge faced by graduates is to succeed in an age of automation. There is no aspect of modern life that is now not altered by information processing engines. Examples include teaching (online learning and assessment), automotive (driverless cars and electronic control systems), the economy (high-speed automated trading), entertainment and shopping (virtual assistants and recommendation engines), health (automated diagnostics and non-invasive body scanning) and the digital humanities. The principles enabling the design of this new wave of products are embodied in the discipline of Information Engineering. This 1-year full-time or 2 to 3-year part-time postgraduate course is designed to provide graduate engineers with skills to design modern computational products and systems. Graduates specialise in fundamental theory and applications relating to the generation, distribution, analysis and use of information in engineering and science. Is This Course For Me? The M.Sc. in Electronic and Information Engineering course is designed for individuals who have a strong academic background in electronic and electrical engineering, computer engineering, or related fields, and who wish to specialise and advance their knowledge in electronic and information engineering. The course is designed for individuals who are interested in pursuing a career in areas such as telecommunications, wireless communications, data communications, computer networks, software engineering, and signal processing. It is also suitable for individuals who are already working in the industry and wish to enhance their skills and knowledge to progress in their career or change their career path.
