Bachelor of Engineering - Communications Engineering (Including Year Abroad) (HQ41)

It’s hard to imagine a world without mobile networks, the internet, radio, or audio-visual appliances. Bringing together knowledge from both electrical engineering and computer science, communications engineers drive these communications systems which are so fundamental to the modern world; people can now easily make international calls, Skype their friends, and even communicate with satellites orbiting the planet. How could students influence what happens next? Students study a wide range of topics in communications, including:

• Radio frequency circuits and systems • The transmission of digital signals over analogue links • The transfer of audio-visual information

The School is a community of scholars leading the way in technological research and development. Today’s communications engineers are creative people who are focused and committed, yet restless and experimental. It is home to many of the world’s top engineers, and its work is driven by creativity and imagination as well as technical excellence.

Students also cover traditional topics in electronics, including signal processing, circuit design, processors and software.

The School is Top 150 for Telecommunication Engineering in ShanghaiRanking's Global Ranking of Academic Subjects 2019 and more than two-thirds of its research rated “world-leading” or “internationally excellent” (REF 2014).
