Welcome to the School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering
Research Excellence
- The top electronic and electrical engineering school in the UK based on the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise (RAE), with
a grade-point average (GPA) of 3.05, and an overwhelming 80% of staff rated internationally excellent or World leading (3* or 4*). This
enables us to attract funding to invest further in our research and facilities and to attract and retain outstanding staff. - 100 years of history and has built on its long standing tradition of microwave engineering to also lead the world in terahertz technology and the semiconductor, bio- and quantum electronic aspects of nanotechnology.
- Recent investment in infrastructure and research staff in communications and signal processing has projected that area onto the international stage.
- Our engineers designed, built and installed the cellular data-networking technology used for gathering information at the Pierre-Auger Observatory in Argentina: the world's largest cosmic ray laboratory.
Undergraduate and Postgraduate Degrees 
- Strength in research ensures our undergraduate, taught postgraduate masters and postgraduate research degree programmes are at the forefront of knowledge and thinking.
- Supportive and student-focused as evidenced by high National Student Survey scores.
- Well-connected nationally and internationally, within academia and industry, bringing a richness to our degree programmes and our teaching.
While research and teaching are our core businesses we are starting to develop our exploitation or commercialisation activity. In particular we are a partner organisation in the Wireless CIC and we host the spin-out company Instrumentel.
