Electrical & Electronics Engineering

The Electrical & Electronics Engineering (EEE) programme provides a strong background in electrical and electronics theory, which is reinforced through practical laboratory work. Emphasis throughout the programme is on understanding the fundamental principles underlying electronics across a wide spectrum of industrial and consumer applications. The programme provides preparation for our graduates to succeed in their chosen field of interest. The ultimate aim of the Department is to raise competent, innovative and creative engineers.

Specializations are offered in key areas, such as industrial electronics, control systems, computer hardware and communication systems. Courses in EEE cover a wide range of topics, such as electrical circuits and systems, electronics, telecommunications, digital system design, and microcomputer system design. The curriculum and the syllabi are prepared with equal emphasis on EEE. Apart from providing students with the necessary theoretical background, emphasis is on practical experience gained through laboratory work and experimentation. Students have access to several up-to-date and well-resourced facilities, such as our Physics Laboratory, General Computer Laboratories, Electronics Laboratory, Digital Electronics and Microprocessor Laboratory, Computer-Aided Design Laboratory and Computer Networks Laboratory.

To acknowledge the worldwide importance of EEE, the department has established high-quality links and collaborations with universities and industries in Turkey and the UK, so as to give practical orientation to the academic studies. Experts in the field are invited regularly to give seminars and lectures to EUL students. Visits to industry are arranged periodically in order to familiarize the students with the practical side of the branch. EUL graduates in EEE are highly sought after in industry with rewarding career opportunities.

The Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering seeks to bring up students who have a wide knowledge of practical and theoretical information, the skills to solve problems analytically, to be able to learn or acquire knowledge through research and who adopt a lifetime process of learning as their motto.

Once students successfully graduate from the undergraduate programme, they will be able to be inquisitive when solving problems, will have an in-depth knowledge of mathematics, physics and sciences. Ultimately these will be the skills required to determine mistakes analytically and criticise in constructive fashion, and to be able to successfully design or test electrical and electronics equipment.
