INFORMATION

METU-NCC Electrical and Electronics Engineering Undergraduate Program

Due to its leading role in the development and application of science and technology, Electrical-Electronics Engineering is one of the most rapidly changing and developing areas of engineering. Ranging from electromagnetic field theory to satellite antenna design, basic electrical circuit analysis methods to large-scale circuit design, digital system design to communication technologies, power electronics to high voltage applications, symbolic logic to artificial intelligence, and biomedical engineering to microelectronics, this field of engineering synthesizes well-established theories with emerging ones in great harmony and creativity in an effort to generate solutions and products in sectors as varied as energy, health, space technology and defense.

The program is designed to encourage the development of individual initiative and resourcefulness with emphasis on responsibility and good judgment. Students, both national and international, will become engineering professionals with recognized research and leadership abilities, working creatively and effectively, and adhering to life-long learning principles. Students will not only acquire a sound knowledge of basic sciences, such as mathematics, physics and chemistry but they will also develop a firm understanding of economics, social sciences and humanities before specializing in Electrical and Electronics Engineering.

Students in this program can take advantage of the flexibility of the curriculum design, and upon building a sound background on basic sciences and engineering sciences, they may specialize in the computer, microwave and antennas, energy systems and power electronics, or control fields of Electrical and Electronic Engineering by choosing appropriate technical electives. At the end of the fourth year, successful candidates are awarded the degree of Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. During this period of undergraduate study students are expected to spend a minimum of 40 working days in industry over two consecutive summers.

Students graduating from the METU NCC Electrical and Electronics Engineering Program can work as engineers, researchers or managers in any public or private organization operating in areas as diverse as digital system design and communication technologies, automation and control of energy production, conveyance and distribution; bioengineering and defense applications; hardware design and software development. Graduates may also pursue academic careers in leading universities, both in Turkey or elsewhere, as a result of the broad knowledge and analytical perspective they gain through the METU NCC Electrical and Electronics Engineering Program.
