General Description of the Program

Electronics Engineering (ECE) is a dynamic program that prepares its graduates to be in the forefront of the revolutionary electronics and communications technology. The Electronics Engineering program forms the foundation for various growing disciplines leading to specializations in a desired subfield with the help of a research-oriented curriculum. With the global popularity of this branch and its increasing demand and career opportunities, the ECE Program takes special care in acquainting the students with the latest developments in the field and preparing them for the licensure examinations. Electronics Engineering covers topics such industrial electronics, broadcast engineering, cable and wireless television systems, consumer and industrial electronics, optics/ photonics/optoelectronics, electromagnetics, avionics, aerospace, navigational and military applications, medical electronics, robotics, cybernetics, biometrics, fire alarms, CCTV, sensors and detection systems, microelectronics and all other related and convergent fields.

Program Educational Objectives

Three to five years after graduation, the Electronics Engineering alumni shall have:

1. Engaged in the practice of Electronics Engineering or technopreneurship and innovation.
2. Assumed significant roles with key responsibilities in their workplace.
3. Involved in professional, socio-civic, government, or non-government organizations.
4. Demonstrated continuous professional development through certifications, attendance to training, seminars, and conferences and/or pursuit of graduate studies in engineering or related fields.

Program/Student Outcomes

1. Apply knowledge of mathematics, natural science, engineering fundamentals and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.
2. Conduct investigations of complex engineering problems using research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of information to provide valid conclusions.
3. Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design systems, components or processes that meet specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
4. Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams and in multi-disciplinary settings.
5. Identify, formulate, research literature and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences and engineering sciences.
6. Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of engineering practice.
7. Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.
8. Understand and evaluate the sustainability and impact of professional engineering work in the solution of complex engineering problems in societal and environmental context.
9. Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change
10. Apply reasoning informed by contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to professional engineering practice and solutions to complex engineering problems.
11. Create, select and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools, including prediction and modelling, to complex engineering problems with an understanding of the limitations.
12. Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of engineering management principles and economic decision-making and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.
