Welcome to the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering

B.Sc. Engg. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering

USTC has opened up a new horizon for the technological community of the country by launching the Department of EEE in the year of 2012 which is indeed a bold step by the University in fulfilling its mission. Since its inception, EEE has been the pioneer department.

Message from the Dean, FSET

The University of Science and Technology Chittagong (USTC) is an excellent institution for engineering studies. As dean of the Faculty of Science, Engineer and Technology (FSET), I am incredibly proud of USTC's longstanding commitment to providing a practical, experience-based engineering education. Engineers are dedicated to enriching human existence through innovation and progress. They tackle challenges through inventive reasoning and methodical progress. We shape the future of graduate engineers to become community leaders in accordance with the Human Development Pillar, which requires "a world-class education system, healthcare system, and an efficient and committed workforce that achieves a competitive labor market to enable the Bangladesh population to participate in development." We strive to equip our graduates with the knowledge, skills, and competences necessary to flourish on the job market from day one. We use practical applied courses in industrial settings such as industrial pilot plants, laboratories, and workshops within the university, as well as the most advanced available technologies, to develop the skills and competencies of our graduates so that they are a valuable asset to any future employer.

Message from the Chairman

Welcome to the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) at USTC. Established in 2006, the department began its journey with a clear mission, to produce highly skilled engineers and professionals who excel at the frontiers of cutting-edge technology, research, innovation and product development. The EEE Department is proud to have a team of dedicated and accomplished faculty members with extensive experience in both industry and academia. Our state-of-the-art laboratories and research facilities provide an ideal environment for hands-on learning, experimentation and innovation. Our primary goal is to nurture engineers, educators, and professionals who not only master advanced technologies but also contribute meaningfully through research, idea generation, and innovative design. Over the years, the department has grown significantly and is now home to a large number of undergraduate students. With more than 1,000 alumni, our graduates are making impactful contributions both nationally and internationally across diverse sectors. As we navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), we are inspired by the immense potential for innovation and societal advancement. The convergence of advanced technologies presents both new challenges and limitless opportunities that our students and researchers are well-equipped to embrace. The Department of EEE enjoys a strong reputation for academic excellence, research productivity, and community engagement. We consistently prepare graduates who are ready to meet the complex demands of the engineering profession. Current research areas within the department include Power Electronics, Electrical Machines and Drives, Renewable Energy and Energy Systems, Semiconductor Physics and Devices, VLSI Technology, Control Systems, Telecommunications and more. We invite you to explore our department and join us in shaping a brighter technological future.

Vision

The aim of Electrical and Electronic Engineering Department is to become a front-runner in bringing out globally competent Electrical and Electronic Engineers who can cater to the dynamic needs of the different sectors of Electrical and Electronic Engineers and to provide a diverse and stimulating environment for quality research.

Mission

To align the teaching learning process and to provide basic foundation for the students to adapt to the changing industrial needs.

To enable students to develop skills to solve complex technological problems of current times and also provide a framework for promoting collaborative and multidisciplinary activities throughout the world.

To bridge the gap between industry and academia by framing curricula and syllabi based on industrial and societal needs.

To create research oriented mindset and focus in fulfilling growing demands of society through mentoring and motivation.

To develop professional competency and technical expertise individually and through team effort thereby exhibit leadership in industry.

To inculcate moral and ethical values among the faculty and students.

Objectives

The electrical engineering faculty in conjunction with its constituents has established the following program educational objectives for each of its students:

EEE graduates will practice the profession of engineering using a systems perspective and analyze, design, develop, optimize, and implement complex electrical systems.

EEE graduates will contribute to industrial, service, and/or government organizations by applying the skills and knowledge acquired through formal education and their cooperative educational experiences.

EEE graduates will successfully pursue graduate degrees.

EEE graduates will draw upon a broad base of knowledge in providing engineering solutions within the appropriate technological, global, societal, ethical and organizational context.

Description of the Program

The courses of study for the B.Sc. degree in EEE are structured to provide a foundation in both basic sciences and this branch of engineering. The program also has sufficient general education to enhance the cultural growth of a student and develop professionals with a strong social awareness.

Elective courses are introduced from senior year. Students must meet the design, depth, and breath requirements of the department in their selection of the elective courses. The design requirement is met through senior project of 4.5 Credit hours. The breadth requirement is met by taking courses in other core areas or courses in emerging technologies.
