Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering – University of Science and Technology Chittagong

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

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering of USTC. The Electrical Engineering Department has been growing considerably since its journey began under the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Technology (FSET) in 2006 due to the success of its graduates in proving themselves as highly skilled and professional engineering technologists. The focus of the EEE department is to train our students to get strong academic knowledge in the frontier areas of both electrical and electronics engineering and also to make the students ready to face real-world challenges. The department also opens the doors for our graduates to continue their graduate studies at universities around the world. Our highly qualified academic staff carefully design their courses to ensure our graduates have the skills they need to make a significant contribution to the society. The Department has sound knowledge in emerging research areas like Adaptive & Robust control schemes for power electronic applications, High voltage pulse power system, Electrical machines and drives, Control of electric vehicle and energy management, Power system optimization and Active distribution networks, Smart grid technologies, advanced Communication Engineering, Internet of Things, Artificial intelligence. Our faculty members have been continuing their respective research projects and publishing their research articles in reputed national and international journals. The department is active in organizing the various workshops and seminars for the growth and development of faculty and students’ research knowledge further. Our department students are also highly encouraged to implement their innovative research ideas with the help of the expert faculty members and the available standard research lab facilities in the department. We invite you to explore our department and discover by yourself the ample opportunities at our department as a worthy choice in the field of Electrical and Electronic Engineering education.

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.

Laboratories
