Electronics Engineering
PROGRAMME OVERVIEW
Electronics engineers design and develop electronic equipment, such as broadcast and communications systems, portable music players, microwaves, GPS devices, televisions and a myriad of other electronic devices used industry and homes.
Electronics engineers typically do the following:
- Design electronic components, software, products, or systems.
- They analyze the needs of customers in order to determine what are the needed capacity and cost of developing the intended electronic system.
- Evaluation and recommendation for modifications or equipment repair
- Inspection of electronic equipment and systems to make to determine if they meet regulatory standards
- Development of applications and modifications for electronic properties that are used in electronics parts in order to improve performance of instruments
PROGRAMME OUTCOMES:
Students in this first-degree programme will learn :
- Mathematical analysis of circuits
- Construct high speed digital circuits
- Construct and analyze electronic filters and their frequency using capacitors and inductors
- Use MOS transistors and operational amplifiers for specific electronic applications
- Measurement of circuit variables using oscilloscopes, multimeters, frequency analyzers and signal generators
- Comparison of circuit variables with predicted mathematical model behavior and offer explanations for discrepancies
- Fundamentals of number systems and performing conversion between them.
- Logic circuits and how to design them.
- Classification of Combinational and Sequential Logic.
- Flip flops and latches
NOTE: Blended programmes like this will be delivered via both face-to-face and online synchronous sessions (read more on what is blended learning by clicking here).
Many programmes will offer students the choice to select a course delivered either face-to-face or via synchronous online modality. Upon registration, please read registration instructions carefully so that you select the modality that you prefer based on the options that are available.
