Electrical & Electronic Engineering
Electrical is the branch of engineering science that studies the uses of electricity and the equipment for power generation and distribution as well as the control of machines. Meanwhile, Electronics is the branch of engineering science that uses scientific knowledge of the behaviour and effects of electrons to create components (capacitors, diodes, resistors and transistors), devices, systems or equipment that use electricity as part of their source of power.
Why study Electrical & Electronic Engineering?
Electrical and Electronic Engineering is in every industry; from mobile phones to missile defence systems and all digital electronics in between, electrical and electronic engineers play a crucial role in the development of anything that requires a plug or battery.
In general, Electrical and Electronic Engineering creates advanced technologies and software to:
Thanks to the advancements in technology, graduates are in high demand globally meaning there has never been a better time to enter the industry.
This excellent programme also incorporates an internship and specialisation in the final year to give you the edge in your career.
This degree provides pathways to:
Postgraduate Study

• Advance standing for those transferring from other degree/diploma programmes is subject to approval from Northumbria University.
• The accreditation of all 3+0 B.Eng. (Hons) programmes are done by Malaysian Qualification Agency (MQA) and not Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC). Hence, the 3+0 B.Eng. (Hons) programmes are not recognised by Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM). In order to register as Graduate Engineer with BEM, graduates from the 3+0 programmes have to top up their study with a master degree by instruction (master by coursework) in the relevant field from accredited universities/institutions.
