The Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering prepares students to excel in one of today’s fastest-changing fields. Our commitment to leading-edge research and continual programme development helps ensure that students graduate at the forefront of their chosen field and are well-prepared to lead the development of the profession and the field.
Our programmes are designed to give you solid training in both software and hardware. Emphasis is placed on the principles of electrical and electronic engineering as well as more specialised subject areas.
LEARNING AND TEACHING
The teaching of the programmes focusses on applying theory to practice in order to enhance your practical experiences, abilities and skills.
You will have the chance to develop a range of subject-related tools and techniques, especially computer-assisted design technology and measurement skills. The delivery of the modules focusses on the development of your ability to choose tools appropriate to each individual project.
STATE-OF-THE-ART-LABS
We have established an electronic laboratory, electric machine laboratory, ARM Laboratory, altera laboratory and tanner tools laboratory, which are all well-appointed with state-of-the-art equipment. We are also setting-up new lab facilities such as a:
• high-frequency engineering laboratory, equipped with state-of-the-art hardware and measurement facilities including an 6 x 4 x 3m pyramidal-cone anechoic chamber, vector network analysers and LPKF ProtoMat printed circuit board fabrication equipment
• power electronic laboratory
• sustainable energy laboratory
• telecommunication laboratory
In addition, RMB 15 million has been invested in equipment in the microelectronics and photonics laboratories, including a 200m2 class 1K room and a class 10K room.
