On behalf of all staff in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics, we are delighted to welcome you as a new student. We hope that you will enjoy your time at Liverpool and take full advantage of opportunities as they arise. This is an exciting first step in further developing your knowledge and all-important employability skills leading to your professional career.
Today the Department has established world-leading research groups in Data Science and Signal Processing, Energy Technologies, Networks and Communications, Sensors Diagnostics and biomedical devices, mass spectrometry and instrumentation and Technological Plasmas. We also have very strong links with a wide range of companies and Industry sectors, many of whom sit on our Industrial Advisory Board and inform our degree programmes about current industry trends and needs, as well as accepting internships for our “year-in-Industry” schemes. All of which will help to boost your employment opportunities.
We in the Department hope you will be happy at Liverpool, and that you make the most of your time at the University and in the city.
Part of the School of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Computer Science
The School of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Computer Science is comprised of two complementary departments (the Department of Electrical Engineering & Electronics and the Department of Computer Science). The two departments are well matched, thus allowing students in both to benefit from the experience and know-how available across the entire school.

What to do next
Getting Ready
Your wait is nearly over, and we can’t wait to welcome you. Explore these web pages to discover how you can prepare to start University, what to do when you arrive in Liverpool, and how to quickly settle in and find your feet.
These pages contain information about what you can do now to prepare for life as a University student. You will find guidance on a range of preparatory activities, from activating your computer account and email address, scheduling your Liverpool Welcome 2024 activities, and finding out more about the Student Guild, the Sports Centre and the campus libraries.
Teaching and learning plans for 2024/25
For Semester 1, your learning experience will be focused on in-person teaching sessions on the University campus. These activities will include timetabled sessions such as lectures, seminars, tutorials, workshops, and laboratory-based activities. Wherever possible, you will be expected to attend your timetabled sessions on campus.
While most of your learning sessions will be on campus, those activities may be supplemented by online sessions in some modules. Both on-campus and online sessions will be scheduled clearly in your personal timetable, and each module lecturer will explain the arrangements for their module at the start of the semester.
You will also be expected to undertake independent study, outside of your timetable, and you will have access to our two libraries to support you with this.
