After completion of the course you can find work as a hardware/software designer/engineer, sales representative or quality engineer. Big well know companies, (Philips, Nokia, Ericsson, Shell, Croon) have got serveral places to work. There are also a lot of small companies working in the electronic field. There is also a possiblity to continue for a master study in Electrical and Electronic Engineering.
Contents
First basic skills will be taught, in lessons and also in projects. The lessons consist of technical, social and communication subjects. Technical subjects that will be taught are analogue and digital hardware, design and engineering. Programming will also be part of the course. Hardware and software make everything work! Social and communicative aspects are trained in presentations, interviews and much group work in projects. The projects concern small technical problems to be solved by a group of students.
Students learn much about the product they design but also about the multidiscipline character of the process. A project example is "measuring an analogue heartbeat and presenting it wireless on the other side of the country". You will acquire wide technical knowledge and be able to communicate multidisciplinary. At least 2 semesters the student will work in company, developing his practical and professional skills. The course content is adjusted to the requirements of the professional companies.
Electrical and Electronic Engineering is a 4 years bachelor course intended for the professional industrial field of Engineering. The programme is designed according to the international requirements of the credit transfer system. The Dublin descriptors will recognise the level of education, and show us 5 international competences:
