Program Overview
A fascinating combination of electronics and computer science. Learn to design and apply both hardware and software of general-purpose and embedded computer systems. How competitive: Edinburgh usually makes offers to the highest-qualified applicants. In recent years most applicants needed from 34 points with 665 at HL to 37 points with 666 at HL to receive an offer, and some years are more competitive than others, so 34 does not guarantee one.
