Strand Campus
Strand Campus sits along the Thames at London's cultural heart. Alongside world-class teaching spaces, students enjoy access to the pedestrianised Strand Quad, with Somerset House and iconic landmarks just steps away.
Overview
Our BEng in Electronic Engineering opens the door to a rewarding career at the forefront of global technological innovation. Our programme offers a rigorous foundation in core principles, including foundational and advanced electronics, mathematics and design thinking, combined with extensive hands-on experimentation and project work. Our integrated approach empowers you to apply your knowledge in practical, impactful and innovative ways, preparing you to lead in an ever-evolving technological landscape.
Our course focuses on four key areas in electronics: circuits and systems, signal processing, computing and communication. You will develop in-depth knowledge of and practical expertise in circuit analysis and design, communication systems, computation and programming, and hardware design. This hands-on experience enables you to develop not only advanced technical expertise, but also the creativity, problem-solving ability and interdisciplinary insight essential for driving innovation in today’s world.
You can also choose to study on the integrated Master’s (MEng), adding a fourth year to your degree during which you’ll undertake substantial group research and a design project, integrating advanced knowledge from four years of study. The MEng is the main qualification pathway for students who make an early decision to train as engineers.
Accreditation
The programme is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of partially meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer. The integrated master’s programme – the MEng – fully meets the requirements.
Key benefits
- 8th in the UK for Electrical and Electronic Engineering (QS subject rankings 2025).
- Unique combination of electronic engineering, general engineering and robotics modules.
- Study as part of a diverse student cohort – King’s is one of the leading Russell Group universities by proportion of female undergraduates on its Engineering programmes.
- 6th in the UK for producing the most employable graduates (Times Higher Education Graduate Employability rankings 2024/5).
From my experience, not only have the staff and research students been super approachable and encouraging, but they have also been super generous in letting me take part in some of their ongoing projects, from developing innovative surgical tools or working with connecting drones to 5G networks!
