Entry requirements
- You will typically need an upper second-class honours degree or an international equivalent in an Engineering, Science or Technology discipline. Your degree must also include scores of 55% or an international equivalent in each of the following four modules: Analogue Electronics, Digital Electronics, Programming and Signals and Systems. If you have not studied any Signals and Systems or Programming modules, a module in Digital Signal Processing (DSP), Microprocessors and Embedded Systems, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA), or Computer Architecture will be considered in place of this. If you are currently completing a degree, we understand that your final grade may be higher than the interim grades or module/unit grades you have achieved during your studies to date. We will consider your application if your interim grades are currently slightly lower than the programme's entry requirements and may make you an aspirational offer. This offer would be at the standard level, so you would need to achieve the standard entry requirements by the end of your degree. Specific modules requirements would still apply. We will also consider your application if your final overall achieved grade is slightly lower than the programme's entry requirement.
