RESTRICTED Diploma in Electrical and Electronic Engineering

PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

INTRODUCTION

Electrical engineering is the field of study which deals with the technology of
harnessing electrical energy towards designing, testing and development of circuitry
and equipment for electrical transmission systems, machine control and high power
apparatus and systems. Generally, electrical engineering encompasses electrical
power and control, electronic, telecommunication and computer systems. While
electronic engineering is another branch of engineering that deals with practical
application of designing, fabrication and operations of electronic circuits, electronic
devices, broadcast and communication systems, biomedical equipment and medical
imaging which operates at low voltage sources as part of its driving force.

The Diploma in Electrical and Electronic Engineering is a three-year full-time

programme comprising of six semesters course work with one full semester of
industrial training built-in. Students are prepared for their future role in the economy
by building a solid foundation in technical knowledge and the necessary skills, related
to the field of electrical and electronic engineering.

SYNOPSIS
The Diploma in Electrical and Electronic Engineering programme is designed to
cover the broad discipline of electrical and electronic engineering. The broad-based
electrical and electronics foundation of which includes electrical and electronic
principles, computer fundamental and programming, computer aided design,
semiconductor devices, communication systems, wiring installation, power system,
electrical machine and programmable logic controller. The knowledge and skills
coverage of both fields would provide graduates with a wider range of employment
opportunities.
