BA/BS in Electrical Engineering

Fundamental theory and applied principles of electric power, the force behind modern civilisation, are explored in this department, which develops engineers for an advanced information society. Students build understanding through substantial theoretical study and laboratory training, moving from the basics of electricity to industrial applications. Important areas include power systems for generation, transmission and distribution, and motor control. The field also takes in advanced applied science and technology that the main industries require. Laboratory projects in power electronics and control reinforce lecture theory, and team projects build the communication skills employers expect in the electrical sector. Graduates are prepared as technical professionals able to work across the electrical and information fields with confidence in both theory and practice.
