The program of study leading to the Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) has been designed to meet the requirements for entry into professional practice of electrical engineering on the one hand and that of general educational requirements on the other. The program emphasizes preparatory education and foundation courses in the initial years and professional courses in the third and fourth years. The students are required to study subjects of different areas including subjects of other branches of engineering to undergo rigorous preparation for entry into profession. The curriculum requires completion of 158 credit hours of study including a practicum.
DURATION OF STUDYBSEE is 10 semester program on a normal load of 15/16 credit hours per semester. However, most students will require 12 semesters to complete the requirements of the program. The curriculum is designed to give students general education background, foundation courses, exposure to basic sciences and engineering and specialization in electrical engineering. The first year courses are designed to develop the student's language ability, mathematical ability and reasoning ability. The second year covers background courses of engineering and courses required to develop the knowledge about the need of the society and utilize these to fix personal goals. The third and fourth year courses are designed to expose students to engineering disciplines and specialize in electrical engineering.
To prepare a student for the electrical engineering profession, the curriculum for Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) provides a strong background in circuits, electrical power, electromagnetics, computers, control systems, signal processing and solid devices, etc.
The curriculum calls for course and practical work of 158 credit hours involving the following courses with some options :

CEAT places great emphasis on the value of practical work experience in all professional degree programs. Besides, the hands-on experience gained in laboratories and workshops, BSEE students are required to work as internees in a real life organization. In the fourth year of study, after successful completion of the required number of credit hours, the students are placed as internees with suitable organizations. This internship is an integral component of BSEE program and is worth 9 credit hours.
The comprehensive examination is conducted for students who have satisfactorily completed all the courses of the program. The objective of the comprehensive examination is to test the student's capability to comprehend the entire program. It consists of a written test of three hours and an oral examination which is conducted by a board consisting of academics and practitioners. The examination is graded and the students must obtain a passing grade to qualify. The students must take this examination to fulfil the requirement of the program. The examination is a pre-requisite to practicum.
The BSEE degree will be conferred only to the student who has fully complied with the graduation requirements and has applied for it. The requirements are that the student has:
1. completed all the prescribed courses with a minimum of 158 credit
hours.
2. earned at least "C" grades in each of the core and specialization
courses.
3. earned at least passing grade (D) in each of the remaining courses.
4. earned a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 2.5.
5. earned passing grade in the practicum.
6. earned at least a passing grade in the comprehensive examination.
7. satisfactory behavior and discipline.
8. library and financial clearance from the college and university.
