Course Information & Syllabus
Course Information :
This is a well-established programme designed to integrate telecommunication / electronic systems with computer technology so that graduates can take up demanding, responsible and exciting positions in the rapidly expanding telecommunication/ electronics industries. Armed with this qualification, graduates will have the necessary skills to develop a concept through the design and computer modeling stages, to that of product testing using sophisticated computer controlled instruments. In the third year of the course, students are encouraged to take advantage of the industrial placement. The experience gained through the practical application of taught material can greatly improve job prospects.

Coursework & Assessment :
Assessment is through assignments, written examinations, presentations and design and project reports. All students
are required to complete a 10,000 - word dissertation, based on project work, in the final year. The project is designed to encourage the use and knowledge of theory and design. Computer-aided modeling is also used, providing the opportunity to carry out an engineering investigation from conception to conclusion.
Careers :
Graduates can pursue careers in the communication industry, telecom sector, design and manufacture, research and development, technical management, marketing and large public sector and private undertaking having their captive telecom networks.
