Engineering Courses without Maths

I want to study an engineering course particularly Electronics/Electrical Engineering but I am only studying A level Physics, Chemistry and Economics. And all the course requirements I have seen say that A level Mathematics is a requirement and also a science subject. But I am studying two science subjects, so would I still be able to do the course?

Thanks in advance

You can apply to a course with a Foundation Year to make up for the lack of maths,

e.g. https://www.york.ac.uk/electronics/undergraduate/courses/foundation_year/
or http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/sefy/index

(there's many others...)

As jneil says, without maths, you'd need to do a foundation year. Maths is absolutely essential to engineering degrees.
