It runs for 2 years of full-time study and prepares graduates for the qualification of electronics specialist at EQF level 5. Study topics include the basics of electronics and materials science, engineering mathematics, C++ programming for robotic systems, electrical engineering theory and circuit theory, algorithm design, artificial intelligence, and the design and drafting of electronic products. The programme ties theory closely to practice, supported by partnerships with companies from industry. Graduates are expected to handle analogue, digital and embedded systems from design through assembly, testing and documentation, observe safety requirements and quality criteria, work in teams, and continue to the next level of education.
