Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering

Modern science and technology is highly dependent on materials whose properties can be controlled to accommodate a wide range of applications. The multidisciplinary field of materials science and engineering outlines approaches to enhance the manipulation of existing materials and synthesis of new materials. The purpose of this course is to present to students the basic principles necessary to understand structure-property relations in engineering materials. With these tools and the subject matter outlined in this course, students will obtain a wide knowledge of modern challenges to the application of modern materials. When appropriate, state-of-the-art problems will be discussed to illustrate the structure-property relationship in materials. Properties ranging from mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical, magnetic, and chemical in nature will all be considered. Further, examples will be given to discuss the manipulation of these structure-property relationships in terms of the engineering of materials.

This course aims to provide a solid foundation in conducting quality research at undergraduate level in the field of electrical engineering. Scientific research methods and their implications at different stages of the research process will be studied. Emphasis will also be placed on how to locate and make the best use of relevant sources, the development of a positive attitude toward research, the appreciation of scientific values (integrity, ethics, originality, and academic freedom), and developing skills in the use of appropriate academic genres (research proposals, different types of report, journal papers, thesis) employing an appropriate format, style and language. The use of information technologies at all stages of research (on-line literature search, data processing, written communication, and presentations) and other contemporary methods will also be considered together with a range of practical applications.

The course also includes the conceptualization and preliminary development of a research design in electrical engineering which involves a solution to a problem of interest of the student. An oral presentation and a written report of the initial part of the research are required at the conclusion of the course.
