Electronic Engineering with Artificial Intelligence

Electronic engineering with artificial intelligence is a degree that addresses one of the most significant convergences in modern technology: the integration of AI and machine learning into the hardware and electronic systems on which the digital world runs. Electronic engineering provides the foundational knowledge of circuits, signals, sensors, and systems that allows engineers to understand how physical devices process and transmit information. Artificial intelligence adds the algorithmic and computational layer that enables those devices to make decisions, recognise patterns, and respond intelligently to their environment.

At Surrey, the BEng programme prepares you for careers in robotics and automation, aerospace and defence, AI chip design, telecommunications, healthcare, research, and many other rapidly evolving fields. You will study the core disciplines of electronic engineering, including circuit design, signal processing, communications, and embedded systems, alongside the principles of machine learning, computer vision, and intelligent systems. The Surrey campus provides access to modern research facilities and industry connections that enhance your learning and professional development.

The degree runs over three years full-time, with a typical entry tariff of 120 points.

Graduates of electronic engineering with artificial intelligence programmes work in technology companies, aerospace and defence contractors, telecommunications, healthcare technology, autonomous systems, and semiconductor design. The combination of hardware engineering knowledge and AI competency is particularly valuable as industries across every sector integrate intelligent systems into their products and processes. Many graduates pursue professional engineering accreditation or go on to postgraduate study in robotics, AI, or electronic engineering to develop specialist technical expertise.
