PROGRAM LEVEL
The B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering program dates to 1982 when it was offered by the Gulf polytechnic. The program seeks to provide a broad and solid background in the current theory and practice of electrical machines, energy conversion, power electronics and systems, including familiarity with basic tools of math and science. Required science courses cover basic chemistry and physics, whereas math requirements cover calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, probability and statistics and numerical analysis. Computer programming skills is provided through an introductory course in programming and a specialized course on computer application in electrical engineering. The program offers the main components of modern electronics engineering curriculum. Core courses cover circuit theory, electronic circuits, digital systems, signals and systems, electromagnetics, communications, control systems, power electronics, power systems, electrical machines and electric drives. Students are required to select elective courses from one of the following specialization areas:
– Industrial Drives and Power Electronics.
– Power Engineering.
Our 137-credit Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering program is accredited by both National Authority for Qualification and Quality assurance of Education and training (NAQQAET) and is also accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, (https://www.abet.org ) in the United States. The Electrical Engineering BSc program is designed to provide students with strong engineering science background that will enable them to deal with technical problems that might be faced during their professional Electrical engineering career. Each student carries out prior to his/her graduation a Senior Project. This study involves the design of a real-life Electrical Engineering Project which facilities their adaption to practice as they join the construction industry. During this period, they are also obliged to search and collect information related to their senior project topic. This would enable them to learn how to collect information related to a topic that they do not have any prior knowledge of.
