  UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMME
  (BACHELOR OF ENGINEERING, B.ENG)


PHILOSOPHY OF PROGRAMME
Electronic Engineering has an overwhelming influence on all facets of human endeavours and is designed to host the required knowledge and expertise necessary for the acquisition and husbanding of control, instrumentation, computer and Electronic Technologies.
The course in Electronic Engineering (ECE) is designed to produce graduates with sufficient academic grounding and basic design skills and industrial experience that will enable them fit into any area of Electronic Engineering practice from product design and development to maintenance and research. Adequate grounding is given in communication, computers, control, instrumentation, information and computing systems.
OBJECTIVES OF PROGRAMME
The Electronic Engineering was conceived with the following objectives in mind:
>>  Capacity building in the area of ECE. This is very vital in order to produce the required highly educated and trained graduates in the emerging technology.
>>  Obtain high levels of graduate student achievement in ECE through reliance on laboratory hands-on activities thereby producing graduates with the requisite expertise for satisfying career with Industry, Business and Government,
>>  Promote technology transfer, continuing engineering education and training in ECE, and
Promote collaboration between specialists/experts and industries in the area of ECE.
SCOPE OF PROGRAM
The department intends to offer a five-year programme for UME entrance candidates and a four-year programme for direct entry candidates both leading to the degree of Bachelor of Engineering in Electronic Engineering.
The first two years of the five year programme is common to all Engineering programmes and cover the basic sciences and introductory courses in various branches of engineering. Though it is intended that computer programming Languages would be stressed within the first two years. Courses in the third and fourth year provides a grounding in all areas of Electronic Engineering and introduce students to elaborate ECE analysis. The second semester of the fourth year and the subsequent long vacation are spent doing a minimum of six months industrial attachment (SIWES) at an approved establishment. A student obtains a pass or fail grade in SIWES. Final year courses build up on the foundation laid by earlier courses and introduce the students to system-level design and development. Course options are provided which are intended to give a student additional expertise in his chosen ECE specialisation. All students under-take a project with a significant practical content, which must be presented in a project report and assessed by the departmental examination board for undergraduate examination.
