Electrical and Electronic Engineering

The philosophy of the Electrical and Electronics Engineering programme is to produce graduates with high academic and ethical standards which will be achieved through the imparting of Electrical and Electronics Engineering technology knowledge and skills which are relevant for self-employment, creating of jobs and serving the needs of the nation, industry and community in general. This is to be achieved by providing an all-inclusive atmosphere without prejudice to race, religious or political beliefs.

The aims and objectives of the Electrical and Electronics Engineering programme as outlined in the NUC BMAS is to produce graduates who are resourceful, creative, knowledgeable and able to perform the following functions:

  1. Design a wide range of Electrical and Electronics Engineering projects and supervise their implementation.
  2. Design and implement Electrical and Electronics Engineering related components, devices and systems.
  3. Lay a foundation for life-long learning that is required for maintaining competency to solve new problems as they arise.
  4. Design and develop new Electrical and Electronics Engineering related products and production techniques in industries.
  5. Install and maintain complex Electrical and Electronics Engineering systems for optimal performance in our environment.
  6. Secure the diffusion of Electrical and Electronics Engineering knowledge throughout Nigeria and the world at large.
  7. Adapt and adopt exogenous technology to solve Electrical and Electronics Engineering problems.
  8. Promote research and advancement in Electrical and Electronics
  9. Exercise original thought, have good professional judgment and take responsibility for executing important Electrical and Electronics Engineering related tasks.
  10. Improve on indigenous Electrical and Electronics Engineering technology for deployment to the solution of local problems.
