Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) in Electronic and Electrical Engineering

at University of York United Kingdom

Our broad and principled approach to computer science will give you a thorough grounding in theory as well as practical skills, helping you to solve real-world problems.

You will study systems at different levels of abstraction, including digital hardware architectures, low level programming, operating systems, intelligent systems, compilers and high level languages. You’ll learn to design user-centred systems, recognise the power of data, and build intelligent systems that learn from data.

Our courses are designed with our Industrial Advisory Board, so you’ll be well placed to adapt to the workplace. Choose between a BSc or BEng based on your destination after graduation.

Social media and other emerging communication technologies are becoming a key aspect of social research practice.

The data they generate contain insights into how entire populations communicate, behave and interact with each other.

This course provides the practical research skills and conceptual foundations you need to conduct studies in this new field.

The MSc Global Marketing will equip you with an in-depth and critical understanding of marketing theories as they apply to local, national and international environments.

The course stands out from other marketing degrees with its international focus, its emphasis on ethical and sustainable marketing and its formal links with industry.

You'll study a range of contemporary topics based on our leading research, including global marketing, social and ethical marketing, digital marketing and brand management. Our cohort-specific, research-informed teaching is delivered by leading academics and industry experts and is updated year-on-year to reflect the latest thinking.

This course will provide you with the academic knowledge and practical skills to pursue marketing careers in private, public and not-for-profit sectors around the world. Our graduates have gone on to work for organisations such as Nestlé, Accenture, EPSON, and Coca-Cola.

Astrophysicists look to the skies to discover more about the nature of our Universe.

From the nuclear reactions that power our sun to the mysteries of dark matter, you'll study the great challenges of cosmology in topics aligned with our active research.

To explore the cosmos you'll need grounding in many disciplines of physics, from optics to electromagnetism, quantum physics to classical mechanics. You'll gain foundational understanding of fundamental physics, scientific principles and methods. You'll learn key skills for analysing real-life problems, write scientific reports to industry standards, communicate complex concepts, and solve mind-bending astronomical puzzles.

Computer Science is founded upon Maths, and the study of the two together allows you to explore topics core to both whilst gaining an insight into how they intersect.

Maths influences Computer Science, from designing and analysing efficient computer programs to developing formal proofs that a piece of software does what was intended. This is especially important, for example, if the software is being used to fly a plane.

Increasingly Computer Science is also being used to find solutions to mathematical issues. Computers are used to solve long-standing mathematical problems, as they can help visualise complex numerical data, search for solutions, and make number manipulation faster.

Develop your own areas of interest and expertise in generative syntax and/or formal semantics and their interfaces (with phonology or pragmatics).
Gain practical training in the techniques and methods associated with this field. The course takes a cross-linguistic perspective, allowing you to expand your knowledge of the theory of comparative syntax and semantics and giving you access to a large pool of empirical knowledge on the languages of the world.

With the guidance of world-class tutors and the support of a vibrant research community you will be able to perform original research in formal and comparative syntax and semantics.

This course is suitable for you if you have a prior background in syntax and semantics.

The MSc in Management offers an intensive introduction to management theory.

Approaching business and management as a social science will allow you to critically address the challenges affecting organisations, while considering corporate social responsibility, ethics and environmental sustainability.

Our emphasis on international context reflects the realities of the global economy in which organisations operate. Our staff and students are drawn from all over the world, and bring with them a panoply of perspectives which will inform and enrich your learning.

The course will provide you with the knowledge and skills needed for management roles in private and public sector organisations. It can complement your existing knowledge and skills, even if you have no prior experience of business studies, and will significantly enhance your prospects for employment and career development.

In an increasingly cutthroat global economy, we aim to create reflective, socially and ethically aware specialists in operations management.

You’ll learn to identify problems, gather relevant information and analyse your data to make decisions and take action.

More mathematically rigorous than the equivalent BA, the BSc in Business and Management is a well-balanced degree that will prepare you to make complex decisions in a volatile global marketplace. Your year in industry will give you the chance to put your skills into practice at the cutting edge of management theory, then draw on your first-hand experience to inform your final year of study.

Mathematics and Physics are natural subjects to combine at university. Comprehending high-level physics requires a strong mathematical foundation. Mathematical models are developed to explain our observations of the physical world.

Our integrated programme gives you access to the combined expertise of the Departments of Physics and Mathematics. Our specialist teaching emphasises the mathematical structure of physical theory, providing a strong basis on which to build a comprehensive understanding of modern physics.

You'll work with dedicated staff, all of whom are engaged in current research and many are world leaders in their field. You will benefit from training in cutting-edge mathematical and theoretical physics techniques, and use these to probe the nature of physical reality and push the boundaries of research.
