Study a top Engineering degree in Malaysia & the UK for 60% of the cost

Our undergraduate degree courses in Engineering allow you to study for two years at our safe and modern campus in Iskandar Puteri, Johor, and two years in Southampton, UK, for 60% of the cost of studying in the UK alone*.

We also offer generous scholarships, including a 100% first-year fees discount for top-achieving applicants.

Electrical and Electronic Engineering drives the fundamental technologies of today's connected world. Every area of our lives, from energy supply and transmission, medicine and healthcare to industrial applications, global trade, transport, communications, entertainment and security, is dependent on electrical and electronic technology. As a result, this field is now one of the fastest growing job fields in the world and skilled electrical and electronic engineers are very much in demand. Here is why Southampton should be your top choice:

• We are ranked number one in the UK by The Guardian University Guide, 2021 for Electrical and Electronic Engineering.
• Our UK campus houses a £110m state-of-the-art interdisciplinary cleanroom, high-voltage laboratory, and outstanding undergraduate laboratory facilities.
• We are the first in Europe for telecommunication engineering (Shanghai Ranking's Global Ranking of Academic Subjects, 2019).
• The MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering programme provides a direct route to Chartered Engineer (CEng) status, recognised by international bodies including the Board of Engineers Malaysia via the international agreement known as the Washington Accord.
• Multi-national exposure via the split-campus programme (2 years in Malaysia and 2 years in the UK).

At Southampton, you will gain a broad spectrum of knowledge and skills required to work in the technology sector, but also the wider range of competencies needed by today’s professional engineer. This breadth of knowledge is developed using a systematic approach to most subjects – blending the core technical syllabus with ongoing design exercises that run throughout the programme.

Entry Requirements

• Successful applicants typically have AAA or above at A level in Mathematics, Physics and one other (except General Studies and Critical Thinking).
• Pass in science practical assessment is required where applicable. The equivalent to that would be IB : 36 points overall, 18 at Higher Level including 6 in both Higher Mathematics and Higher Physics
• Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia (STPM): AA in Mathematics and Physics plus A in one other subject
• Unified Examination Certificate (UEC) – Senior Middle Level: Students studying Science track in English with minimum 4 As including Mathematics I and II and Physics (not including Art, Chinese, Malay or Mathematics)
• Diploma in Mechanical Engineering (Aeronautics), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM): First-year entry with a minimum of GPA of 3.4
• Monash University Foundation Year: Minimum of 310 overall with 80 per cent average in Mathematics and Physics, and subject to attending an extended technical induction programme
• English language qualifications: Band 1C, IELTS 6.5 overall with at least 5.5 in each component.

Programme structure

You can either choose to retain a broad-based study path with our MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering or to select one of our seven specialised degrees . You will learn through a combination of lectures, tutorials, laboratory experiments, coursework and individual and group projects. The seven areas of specialisation are:

• Power Systems
• Digital and Analogue Electronics
• Computer Science/Software Engineering
• Artificial Intelligence
• Nanotechnology and Photonics
• Communicaitons Control
• Mathematics

Our degrees integrate design projects and the development of design skills within each year of study. Practical work enables you to gain hands-on experience and develop the critical skills and judgment needed for your future career.

Our teaching follows the semester pattern of our UK campuses. Two semesters begin at the end of September and January, with examinations in January and May. Should you choose to exit this programme after successfully completing three years of study, you will be eligible for a BEng qualification.

The BEng route develops the same core skills as the MEng, however, by choosing the MEng you will study a more extensive range of subjects at an advanced level.

Years 1 and 2 in Malaysia

During your first two years at our Malaysia Campus, you will concentrate on the fundamentals of Electrical and Electronic Engineering with an increasing emphasis on design as the course progresses.

In your first year, you will study the core principles of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. You will also spend about 50% of your time in the laboratories learning and developing practical skills in designing, building, programming and testing electronic systems.

In year two, you will put your learning into practice by designing and building a fully functional ‘smart meter’ as well as designing and testing a silicon chip. You will learn how to use professional software designing tools widely used in the Electrical and Electronic industry throughout your coursework and design exercises.

Years 3 and 4 in the UK

In your third year of study, you will have the opportunity to choose courses from a wide selection of 60 subject modules. You will also undertake an individual design or research project based on a research group within the faculty.

Third-year projects from the faculty have led to commercialisation and publication in journals and conferences. In the fourth year, MEng students choose from a range of modules and work on a group design project, typically developed in conjunction with an industrial partner.

The contribution of these projects is highly valued by the associated companies.
