DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING

The B.Eng. program in Electrical and Electronics Engineering is built on a foundation of mathematics, computing science, and physical science. A small component of electrical engineering is introduced in the first year, with progressively larger components in second and third year. The final year is devoted exclusively to electrical and electronics engineering courses. Each year of the program comprises a number of discipline-based courses and courses taught by other discipline areas. Most courses in the first three years of the program are common for all electrical electronics engineering students. In the third and fourth year students have the option to select specialty topics in areas such as Communications and Control Systems, Electronics, Power Systems and Machinery options..

PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES

The primary aim of the Electrical and Electronics Engineering degrees within the University is to provide an outstanding engineering education to future leaders and to pursue excellence through contributions to research, the profession, industry, and the community.

A second aim is to instil in our students the higher-order critical and analytical thinking skills, research and problem solving abilities, and communication skills needed to enable them to operate effectively in an increasingly complex technical, business, and policy environment.

Elizade University emphasizes learning, research and development. Having completed all due processes, approval for the establishment of the University was given by the Federal Government on 22 February 2012. The approval was conveyed vide the Provisional Licence to Operate as a Private University No. 46 dated 28 February 2012 issued by the National Universities Commission. The Elizade University aims to attract the best and the brightest students in Nigeria and beyond. The main aim is to provide them with practical-oriented scientific, technological and arts education which shall make them self-reliant while preparing them for future leadership and success in their chosen careers in the highly competitive new knowledge society. Academic session of the Elizade University started at 2012/ 2013 session (6th January 2013). The Engineering Faculty started at the Elizade University during 2013 / 2014 academic session (September). The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering started with the take-off of the University in 2012 as one of the pioneer Programmes in the Faculty of Engineering. The Department commenced academic activities at the beginning of 2013/2014 academic session.
