The Department of Electrical
Engineering started with a few staff members, offering an intensive five-year
Bachelor degree program. Currently, there are 275 students and 17 college members. These numbers are expected to
increase over the next upcoming years.
The department offers two
tracks: Electrical Engineering /Communications and (b) Electrical Engineering /
Power & Control (undergraduate). The undergraduate degree curriculum
provides a wide range of basic knowledge in applied sciences such as
Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry. This is followed by strong comprehensive
and balanced departmental requirements in the different fields of Electrical
Engineering, both in classrooms and laboratories. The degree requirements also
include a wide spectrum of selective knowledge in Languages, Social Sciences,
History, Management, Law and many other fields. The students have access to the
latest computer facilities and software that are available in the market, in
order to stimulate their engineering skills. Students have the chance of
combining the different knowledge skills they gained by conducting different
designs through their graduation projects.
Moreover, the department
offers two postgraduate program (MSc.)
in Communication and in Power Engineering.
The department has the following
well-equipped laboratories to support the theoretical understanding of
students.
Electrical Circuits and Filters Lab
MATLAB Applications Lab in Electrical
Engineering
Electronic Circuits and Devices Lab
