London South Bank University (LSBU)

Employability
With computers now an essential part of our lives, the demand and opportunities for those who can design computer hardware and develop software applications, manage and service computer systems is only going to continue to grow. Our societies and utilities are driven and controlled by electronic and computer-based systems that could not function without large, professional hardware and software systems - put simply the world cannot function without computers.

Electronic and computer systems engineers work in most industries, including computing and computer programming, automobile, aerospace, telecommunications, networking and network security power production, manufacturing, transport, defence and electronics, embedded systems, health and medicine, research and development, educational sectors. You could design high-tech devices ranging from tiny integrated-circuit chips, to powerful systems that utilise those chips and efficient telecommunication systems.

Likely jobs for graduates include computer network administration under Windows and Unix/Linux, as well as software engineering and design using Java and C++. You could also work independently as a developer, tester or evaluator of any kind of hardware and software application. You'll be able to develop operating systems, compilers, computer games, business applications, computer programs, analyse data and constructing and managing computer systems. In short, you’ll be highly employable in a wide variety of sectors.
