The University of Surrey is one of very few institutions with the expertise and facilities to give you hands-on experience in radio frequency and microwave devices, backed and informed by pioneering research in wireless communications, space technology, and advanced gigahertz and terahertz microwave technologies. This programme emphasises radio and microwave communications in 5G and beyond. Demand is high for skilled radio frequency (RF) and microwave engineers in the communication, space, aerospace, automotive industries among others. On this programme, you’ll learn about a range of modern theories and practical design techniques that are essential knowledge and skills for an RF engineer. You’ll experience RF systems and circuits across the frequency spectrum, ranging from radio frequency identification (RFID) working at a few megahertz through to mmWave frequencies (at tens of gigahertz), which are relevant to satellite communications and advanced 5G radio. Theoretical concepts established in lectures are complemented by practical implementation in laboratory sessions, with direct experience of industry-standard computer-aided design (CAD) software.
