Information for Stage 2 Students
April 2018
Your Feedback on Stage 2
• What was good in Stage 2?
– modules you liked, found interesting…
– smaller class size, getting to know people??
• What was not so good?
– where could we improve things?
– ??
• Your electives - what did you choose?
– liked them? would recommend them to others?
– what modules would you like to have available?
• Indication of choice – just for planning…
– reasons for choice
• Don’t forget module feedback – online
– goes directly to module coordinator
– also Head of School, Head of Teaching & Learning 2

Electronic & Electrical Route
• You make a decision entering Stage 3
– start to specialise…
• Choose option modules to prepare for either
– Electrical Engineering or
– Electronic Engineering
• Can use electives to keep both options open
– but have to specialise in stage 4…4

Electronic vs. Electrical?
• Your decision in August/September…
– when choosing option modules at registration
• Same basic principles in both
– circuit theory, electronic devices, signals, etc.
• Differences in scale
– electronic engineering small – less is better
• low voltage, low current, low power
– electrical engineering large – more is better
• high voltage, high current, high power
• Differences in application
– electrical engineers use electricity as form of energy
