B.Sc. (Hons) in Electronics and Communication Engineering aims to produce renowned engineers to play a leading role in design and development of modern electronic and telecommunication systems. It gives the required theoretical and practical know-how to embark on careers in rapidly growing areas of modern Data networking, Mobile communications, Television and radio broadcasting, Satellite communication, Electronic and instrumentation engineering and Control Systems engineering.
Bachelor of Electronics and Communication Engineering programme emphasises in providing technical skills to design, develop, install, test and maintain electronic and communication systems.
The curriculum includes core units in Electronics principles and systems; Microprocessors and interfacing; Communication engineering principles and systems; Microwave communication systems and applications; Data communication; Control systems engineering; Engineering mathematics; Management for engineers; Industrial training; Undergraduate project. The final year undergraduate project directs students to apply the theoretical knowledge into practice and will also lead to develop their technical skills, analytical and design skills and interpersonal skills.
PLO1: Apply knowledge of mathematics, basic sciences and engineering fundamentals to the analysis of complex engineering problems.
PLO2: Identify, formulate, research literature, conduct investigations and solve complex engineering problems to provide valid conclusions.
PLO3: Design systems, components or processes that meet specified needs.
PLO4: Conduct investigations of complex problems using research based knowledge and research methods.
PLO5: Create, select and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools to complex engineering activities.
PLO6: Assess societal, health, safety, legal, cultural and environmental issues related to professional engineering solutions.
PLO7: Demonstrate broad knowledge of sustainable development concepts and practices required for dealing with contemporary issues related to professional engineering practice.
PLO8: Demonstrate broad knowledge of ethical responsibilities and professional standards
PLO9: Demonstrate ability to function effectively as an individual and in multidisciplinary and multi-cultural teams, with the capacity to be a leader or manager as well as an effective team member.
PLO10: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.
PLO11: Demonstrate broad knowledge of management and business practices, including financial management, risk and change management.
PLO12: Engage in independent and lifelong learning in the broad context of technological Change
Minimum and Maximum period of the study programme:
The minimum duration of the Honours Degree programme starting from level 3 is 5 academic years and the maximum number of academic years a student can spend to complete the degree programme is fifteen (15).
Exemptions applicable for Bachelor of Technology Honours in Engineering Study Programme:
Students who have academic qualifications other than entry requirements may be granted exemptions according to their qualifications. Such qualifications the student could claim exemptions are listed under each study programme. However, notwithstanding the exemptions obtained, a student has to follow the relevant OUSL courses and obtain certain minimum number of credits to qualify for an award. Such minimum limits are given under the description of each study programme. If you possess any qualification other than those listed in this guidebook, you can seek exemptions by sending duly filled application form which is downloadable from the faculty webpage.
