Electrical Engineering Curriculum


The EE curriculum enables students to design a customized programme comprising a specific set of modules, tailored to meet their individual interests and career goals. Click here for the general structure of the BEng (EE) programme. Design is emphasized in the curriculum through various project modules. For the first stage of the programme, students will receive a broad-based training that seeks to establish a strong foundation in mathematics, sciences, and computing. In the second stage, students will enroll in core modules that focus on fundamental knowledge in ECE. These core modules provide the essential foundation for a variety of specialized technical areas in ECE.

During their senior years of study, students may specialize in certain fields of EE through their selection of 27 MCs of elective modules. Click here for the list of technical elective modules that are currently offered. Students need to choose elective modules from the following concentrations: Communications, Computer Engineering, Control and Automation, Electrical Energy, Engineering Science, Information Processing and Microelectronics. The elective modules in each concentration are categorized as breadth or depth modules. A breadth module enables students to achieve a broad understanding of concepts in the particular concentration. A depth module is a higher-level module that provides greater depth and coverage in the particular concentration.

Students need to take at least four breadth electives to achieve exposure to various facets of ECE. The breadth electives must be chosen from at least four different concentrations for BEng (EE) students. To achieve depth, students need to take a minimum of four depth electives. EE students should take at least 18MCs of ECE technical elective modules (i.e., those with EExxxx module codes). By specific choice of electives, EE students will be able to specialize in a variety of areas. Click here for the specialization tracks available to EE students. Students admitted from AY2002 may take additional ECE elective modules to satisfy the Unrestricted Elective Modules (UEM) requirements.
