SECTION 6 – THE MAYNOOTH BACHELOR OF SCIENCE DEGREE CAO CODE: MH201 POINTS 2018: 350 Engineering Science Overview of the BSc Bachelor of Science degree MH201 and minimum entry requirements see p. 160.
>If you are one of those people who looks at everyday electronic items and wonders “how does that work?’’, then Engineering Science/Electronic Engineering is for you.
>If you look at those items and think “I can make this work better”, then electronic engineering is definitely the career for you.
> Electronic engineering and Engineering Science are at the forefront of technological change - developing the newest phones, computers, toys, robots and cars. One of the newest areas for electronic engineers is the space where software and hardware meet.
>First year Engineering Science students are eligible to transfer into year 2 of the BE Electronic Engineering, based on their performance in Mathematics and Computer Science in first year examinations in the first sitting, subject to Head of Department approval.
Why choose this degree? >Through our research programmes, Electronic Engineering at Maynooth has developed world-class expertise in the area of mobile communications, biomedical diagnostics and technologies, and the intelligent control of large machines such as Robots or wave machines.
>Each of these areas is matched to rapidly growing industries and excellent job opportunities. By bringing this deep knowledge to all the undergraduate programmes, we provide our graduates with a world-class electronic engineering education but also a head start in these exciting and important areas.
Options after graduation? >Graduates of this degree will come with a strong background in software and electronic systems, skills that are in high demand throughout the ICT sector in Ireland and internationally. Students who take a Computer Science and Engineering Science combination will have particular strength when targeting companies which require a close fusion of hardware and software systems – such as robotics or highly integrated devices (such as engine management, digitally controlled products).
>Those taking another science subject can access careers in companies looking at sensing and monitoring – in the medical, biological and environmental sectors.
