Course Description

The Electrical Engineering programme is the study and application of electricity, electronics
and electromagnetism. Electrical Engineers study the uses of electricity and equipment for
power generation and distribution. This dynamic field involves the design of electronic
circuits from basic household equipment to complex systems such as aircraft autopilots and
state-of-theart computers. Micro-electronics, the manufacture and repair of products like
computers, microwaves and control systems, also falls within the field of Electrical
Engineering.


Electrical Engineering provides the knowledge, skills, and management experience needed
for technical and professional careers in instrumentation and control, technical sales and
field services, electronics manufacturing, and electrical power operations. Electrical
Engineering involves the design, study, development and manufacture of various electrical
and electronic systems.
