The Department seeks primarily to impart knowledge, long lasting learning and problem-solving skills to its students in Electronic and Electrical Power Engineering. It seeks to generate new knowledge and to apply both existing and the new knowledge to solve challenging problems in the future and therefore improving the quality of life of people. The EEE Department seeks to develop and prepare professionals to lead productive lives at the cutting edge of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. It also seeks to produce well educated individuals grounded in the fundamental concepts of power systems and electronic engineering. • The aims and objectives of the University Diploma of Technology and the Bachelor programme are: • To produce graduates who are well-educated in the fundamental concepts of electrical and electronic engineering, • To produce graduates who are capable of continuing their professional development throughout their career by combining theory with its application in electrical and Electronics Engineering practice, • To build human resource capacity in the Electric Power Engineering and Electronics discipline in both the public and private sectors to students who wish to become proficient in developing traditional and renewable energy systems using a methodical approach, • To produce graduates with good communication skills capable of functioning responsibly in diverse environments and able to work within teams which are either within the field or multidisciplinary, • To produce graduates who are creative, innovative and are capable of creating jobs. On completion of the programmes, the graduates should be able to: • Control, maintain and repair electrical installations, electrical machines and electronic systems • Design and realize prototypes in the domain of electrical/electronic engineering • Explain processes involving microprocessors/microcontrollers, servomechanisms, etc • Collaborate with senior level technicians and Engineers • Realise experimental set-ups and maintain electromechanical systems • Realise electronic modules based on microcontrollers for monitoring and or control of processes • Carry out maintenance works on production and transformation chains • Create and manage a small enterprise • Write activity reports • Lead a team in industry • Present a problem, methodology to resolve the problem, results and perspectives
