About this course
This four year integrated undergraduate Masters course will prepare you for work as a professional electronic engineer specializing in Control and Instrumentation Engineering. Control and Instrumentation lies at the heart of many modern industries, from Nuclear and Renewable power generation to all sorts of manufacturing industries. During the course you will gain extensive practical experience to ensure that you develop sound practical skills as well as a thorough theoretical knowledge. On this degree you will study both general aspects of electronic engineering and more specialized modules.
Modules
For details of the modular structure, please see the course description on Bangor University's website.

Top job areas of graduates
What do graduate employment figures really tell you?This is one of the more popular areas to study engineering and there is not quite such a serious shortage of electrical engineers as there is of other engineering subjects - but there's still plenty of demand. The most common jobs are in telecommunications, electrical and electronic engineering, but there is some crossover with the computing industry, so many graduates start work in IT and computing jobs. At the moment, there's a particular demand for electrical engineers in the electronics, and the car and aerospace industries, and also in defence, and salaries can vary across the country depending on the industry you start in. Bear in mind that a lot of courses are four years long, and lead to an MEng qualification — this is necessary if you want to become a Chartered Engineer.

Post-six month graduation stats:
This is from the Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education Survey, based on responses from graduates who studied the same subject area here.
It offers a snapshot of what grads went on to do six months later, what they were earning on average, and whether they felt their degree helped them obtain a 'graduate role'. We calculate a mean rating to indicate if this is high, medium or low compared to other universities.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.
While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
