很少有现代企业和人类生活的各个方面不受电子或电气工程的影响-这是最广泛的工程学科之一。皇后大学的电气与电子工程学院致力于利用电气/电子科学解决实际问题。这是一个令人振奋的巨大增长领域，全球缺少合格的工程师。主题领域广泛，从微电子芯片设计和制造到发电和配电。在诸如电信，计算机软件，硬件和网络，医疗电子，安全，虚拟和增强现实，控制和机器人技术以及可再生能源系统等领域中，正在取得快速发展。
In a world where sustainable energy, smart home technology, the Internet of Things and even self-driving cars are a reality, studying Electrical and Electronic Engineering offers students immeasurable potential opportunities. The advances in Electrical and Electronic Engineering are so great that every part of 21st Century life is improved by them.<br><br>As a result, Electrical and Electronic Engineering is one of the broadest and impactful exciting engineering disciplines on offer at Queen's University. The degree programme covers a wide spectrum of topics, from micro-electronic chip design and manufacturing to power generation and distribution. Rapid advances in fields such as telecommunications, computer firmware, hardware and networking, medical electronics, security, control and robotics and renewable energy systems are also reflected in the course structure.<br><br>Globally there is a critical shortage of experienced and talented engineers. This means that Electronics and Electrical Engineering graduates have excellent career prospects across a broad range of sectors.<br><br>At Queen's we work closely with future employers to enhance these career prospects and placement experiences are embedded into the course. This allows students to engage with and learn from real world challenges from day one. This combination of academic theory and application forms a core part of the curriculum and vastly improves our graduate employability rates.
