Introduction

Electrical & Electronics Engineering (EE) has always been one of the important engineering disciplines within the engineering society. EE contributions are not limited to areas such as telecommunications, computer systems, and power engineering but are also extended into areas of applications such as manufacturing, information technology, and many more. Unlike other engineering disciplines, EE is very dynamic and sensitive to technological advancement in the world. In fact, most technological revolutions start from Electrical and Electronics Engineering.


Electrical & Electronics engineers are involved in the design and development of modern high-technology applications, such as automation for electromechanical systems, computer systems, embedded systems, or electronic control systems applied in process plants, renewable energy, automotive industry, aerospace, and even maintenance. In other words, Electrical & Electronics engineers are in high demand in various fields. Graduates in this EE are highly sought after by potential employers.


The Bachelor of Electrical and Electronics Engineering with Honours programme at Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS emphasises a strong foundation in physics, mathematics, and chemistry, followed by a thorough coverage of basic electrical and electronics engineering courses such as circuittheory, analogue electronics, digital electronics, microprocessor, and signals & systems. At higher levels, students are exposed to data and computer networking, digital signal processing, electrical machines, power systems, control systems, communication systems, instrumentation, and power electronics. In the final year, students have the opportunity to major in one of these areas of interest:


  • Computer and Communication
  • Instrumentation and Control
  • Power Systems Engineering
  • Electronics & Devices
