BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING (5yrs) |
Electronic
engineering deals with the research, design, integration, and application of
circuits and devices used in the transmission and processing of information.
Information is now generated, transmitted, received, and stored
electronically on a scale unprecedented in history, and there is every
indication that the explosive rate of growth in this field will continue
unabated.
Electronic engineers design circuits to perform specific
tasks, such as amplifying electronic signals, adding binary numbers, and
demodulating radio signals to recover the information they carry. Circuits
are also used to generate waveforms useful for synchronization and timing,
as in television, and for correcting errors in digital information, as in
telecommunications.
Engineers in this field are concerned with all aspects of
electrical communications, from fundamental questions such as What is
information? to the highly practical, such as design of telephone systems.
In designing communication systems, engineers rely heavily on various
branches of advanced mathematics, such as Fourier analysis, linear systems
theory, linear algebra, complex variables, differential equations, and
probability theory.
The five-year course is designed to produce analytical and practical engineers with sufficient depth of knowledge in the field of electronics and communications. Successful graduates of this program are braced with enough preparation in the areas of telecommunications, broadcasting, and other communications engineering technologies, industrial electronics and instrumentation, semiconductor applications, microprocessor systems, and systems controls engineering. Graduates are also equipped with adequate Information Technology skills such Computer Hardware and Software literacy.
