Electronic and Computer Engineering

Calling maths lovers! If you’d like to be able to fix a gaming remote or build a smart doorbell from scratch, you need to study Electronic and Computer Engineering. Across the first three years, you’ll study the fundamentals of electronic engineering and programming. As this course covers a broad field, you’ll choose one of four specialisms in fourth year: Systems and Devices (covering sensors, diagnostics and more), High-Speed Networks (such as fibre optics and 5G), Digital Interaction (including 3D interfaces and game design), and the Internet of Things. In third year, you can complete a paid six-month INTRA work placement, gaining relevant experience at a company in Ireland or abroad. As a graduate of this course, you’ll be able to build devices and processes to solve real-world problems using cutting-edge technology like augmented reality and virtual reality. You’ll also be accredited to work anywhere in the world in a rapidly growing field that is crying out for qualified graduates to take up roles in design engineering, production engineering, software engineering and related fields.
