Mission

The mission of the Electrical Engineering Program is to provide excellent undergraduate education which includes the theory and practice of balanced topics in electrical engineering following the liberal arts education model. Besides promoting ethical and spiritual values and serving the community, the graduates are expected to acquire quality knowledge, critical thinking, and civic responsibility in a variety of electrical engineering fields through a balance of required courses and technical electives. The program seeks to prepare qualified electrical engineering graduates for professional practice or graduate studies at the local, regional and international levels. Graduates are able to work skillfully and effectively in multidisciplinary teams and are competent to engage in lifelong learning.

 

Accreditation

The Faculty of Engineering (FE) was officially accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, the global accreditor of college and university programs in applied sciences, computing, engineering, and engineering technology, across the three campuses in 2016 and retroactive to Fall 2013. The programs that were accredited are the following: Civil Engineering, Computer and Communication Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. In 2022, ABET reaffirmed the FE’s accreditation for a full cycle, a follow-up to the initial certification in 2016.

Program Educational Objectives

  1. 1.Lead productive careers in a broad range of computer and communication engineering specializations at the local, regional, and international levels;
  2. 2.Pursue successful graduate studies and engage in life-long learning;
  3. 3.Practice the engineering profession with critical thinking, ethics, integrity, leadership, and civic responsibility so as to enhance the quality of living;
  4. 4.Work skillfully and effectively in multidisciplinary teams and contribute to the wellbeing of the society and the environment.

 

Program Learning Outcomes (based on ABET criteria)

The graduates of the Electrical Engineering program will have:

  1. 1.An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics;
  2. 2.An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and  welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors;
  3. 3.An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences;
  4. 4.An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts;
  5. 5.An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives;
  6. 6.An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions;
  7. 7.An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
