Course structure
Year 1 and 2 modules are similar across our electrical and electronic degree courses, and provide a grounding in essential topics.
In years 3 and 4 you’ll have the freedom to shape your degree to suit your interests.
Year 1 overview
Year 1 modules will introduce you to the fundamentals of mechanics, electronics, programming and electrical engineering, laying the foundation for your specialist studies.
You'll also develop your practical skills. You’ll build processing boards in the labs and write programs for a microcontroller.
Year 2 overview
As the course progresses you’ll cover mechatronics essentials, such as control and communications, electrical machines, mechanical power transmission, and power systems technology. You’ll work in a group to design, build and evaluate an autonomous robot.
You’ll also be able to choose optional modules, enabling you to deepen your knowledge of key aspects of mechatronics. Alternatively, you could apply your learning to fields such as space systems engineering or bionanotechnology.
Year 3 overview
In year 3 you can choose to look at more specialist areas such as bionanotechnology, robotics systems or automobile systems. You could also study a language.
Throughout the year, you’ll also work on your individual project. This is an opportunity for you to analyse a problem and then design a solution. You'll implement and test your design.
Year 4 overview
In your final year, a wide choice of modules means you can tailor your learning to suit your interests.
You'll also be part of a group design project, where you’ll gain real-world experience working for an industry or academic customer. Past projects have included:
- an alternative to the traditional safety cut-out switch for powerboats
- an automated greenhouse for urban farming
- a data-security system for the Ministry of Defence

Work in industry
Students on this degree course are encouraged to spend 20 weeks in industry, usually as two 10-week summer placements. Alternatively, you’ll have the opportunity to apply for a year-long paid placement in an engineering organisation.
During your placement, you can apply the knowledge and skills you’ve developed during your degree, and gain vital professional engineering experience.
Between years 2 and 3, or between years 3 and 4, you can apply to take an industrial placement year with one of our partner companies. This will allow you to graduate with a MEng degree with Industrial Studies. This option is open to both UK and international students.
You'll also be able to increase your employability by learning a foreign language and taking advantage of the study abroad placement available in the fourth year.

Bursaries, scholarships and other funding
If you're a UK or EU student and your household income is under £25,000 a year, you may be able to get a University of Southampton bursary to help with your living costs. Find out about bursaries and other funding we offer at Southampton.
If you're a care leaver or estranged from your parents, you may be able to get a specific bursary.
Get in touch for advice about student money matters.
Scholarships and grants
You may be able to get a scholarship or grant to help fund your studies.
We award scholarships and grants for travel, academic excellence, or to students from under-represented backgrounds.
Support during your course
The Student Services Centre offers support and advice on money to students. You may be able to access our Student Support fund and other sources of financial support during your course.

How to apply
What happens after you apply?
We will assess your application on the strength of your:
- predicted grades
- academic achievements
- personal statement
- academic reference
We'll aim to process your application within 2 to 6 weeks, but this will depend on when it is submitted. Applications submitted in January, particularly near to the UCAS equal consideration deadline, might take substantially longer to be processed due to the high volume received at that time.
Equality and diversity
We treat and select everyone in line with our Equality and Diversity Statement.
