BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING (BSEE) PROGRAM


[ Program of Study ] [ Duration ] [ Course Offerings ] [ Practicum and Comprehensive Examination ]
[ Requirements for Graduation
Electrical engineering covers production, transmission and utilization of electrical power as well as the transmission and processing of information. The study of electrical engineering is grouped into academic areas like circuits, electrical power system, electronics, electromagnetics, communications, control, solid state devices and computer engineering.  Electrical energy has extensive application in day to day life and the modern civilization is unthinkable without electricity. Naturally, employment opportunities for electrical engineers encompass a wide spectrum of activities covering design, development, research, sales and management. Electrical engineers are employed by public utilities, industrial organizations, communications industry, government, educational institutions and consulting engineering firms within the country and outside.  The electrical engineering program offers a broad education in fundamental principles and applications in laboratory and field. The electrical engineering students are also provided with a broad educational background as well as exposure to socio-economic and environmental impact of technology.

PROGRAM OF STUDY

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.


TOP
DURATION OF STUDY

BSEE 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.

PRACTICUM

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.

COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION

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.
