MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN, COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING

Welcome to the College of Engineering (COE) and Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN). COE strives to provide a first class educational experience to its undergraduate students preparing them for positions in the industry in line with its status as a Tier 5 (Excellent) engineering education provider (D-SETARA 2011). The college aspires to become the leading engineering education provider and research leader in the area of energy and sustainability. COE is the largest college in this university with more than 3400 students and 14% are international students from 28 different countries. This handbook has been produced to assist you in planning your studies in UNITEN. It lists the programmes offered by each department in COE, the courses that you are required to take, the sample of course distribution, the faculty members and the course descriptions. The

support services and extract of academic regulations are also included. There are three groups of people whom will help you get the most out your study in COE. The teaching staff will provide lecture and tutorial support and academic guidance. The technical support staff will help you with your work in the laboratories. The administrative staff will help you with everything to do with your programme administration. Each student will be assigned an academic advisor for the duration of their studies. The academic advisor is one of our lecturers who will advise and guide you on your programme. He/she will help you in choosing the courses to register for any particular semester and also assist you if you experience any academic problems. Please meet your academic adviser early in your programme and see them often. I am sure you will find them friendly and helpful. Our programmes are structured into semesters and are broad-based with a strong emphasis on basic fundamentals. Towards the end, you have some choice in the areas you would wish to specialize. These specialized technical electives are courses that are of great demand and need by the industry and the nation at large. These are coupled with strong emphasis on development of soft skills such as communication, leadership and management, and nurturing humanities values, to mould you into a well-rounded and competent professional engineer in harmony with holistic societal values. We would like to produce engineers who are career resilience, i.e. always equip themselves with the latest tools, technology and skills to be able to adapt and are ever ready to apply them to any work environment. The college staff works hard to produce a high quality and innovative educational experience for our students. Our programmes are accredited by Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA) and the bachelor programmes are recognized by the Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC). In order to ensure that all the bachelor programmes offered in COE are relevant to the industry, Outcome Based Education (OBE) is implemented in all the engineering bachelor programmes. OBE requires that inputs from all stake-holders are sought in designing and reviewing the programme curriculum and clear statement of Programme Educational Objectives (PEO) and Programme Outcomes are required. In order to ensure that the quality of the programmes are continuously improved, a clear Continual Quality Improvement (CQI) system which requires measurement of achievement of the outcomes while the students are in UNITEN and after they leave UNITEN, analyze the results and use them to continuously improve the quality of the programme. All students are encouraged to be involved in out of class activities which will enrich their learning experience. Various activities are arranged from time to time by either the student societies or the college such as industrial talks, industrial visits, internal and external engineering related competitions etc. Your involvement in the activities will be given SCORUN points which will be accumulated until your graduation. On behalf of the college, I wish you a successful and enjoyable experience as a student in COE. Thank you. Yours sincerely, Professor Dr. Mohd. Zamri Yusoff Dean, College of Engineering

COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING, OUTCOME BASED EDUCATION PLAN

The College of Engineering has taken initiative steps in order to implement Outcome Based Education (OBE) into its educational

system and thus meet the requirement of the Malaysian Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC). In order for the OBE

implementation to be successful, each department shall produce its own Programme Objectives (PEO) which will cascade down

to Programme Outcomes (PO) and then to Course Outcomes (CO). Each department shall manage the implementation through

various delivery methods in each course, conduct assessment and evaluation process and review the results for continuous quality

improvement (CQI) process. Inputs from relevant stakeholder shall be taken during the CQI process. The OBE framework and

general flow of OBE implementation are as shown in following diagrams.

DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering offers courses leading to the award of

Bachelor of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (Hons.) (BEEE) (KPT/JPS(KR10504)06/14)

Bachelor of Computer and Communication Engineering (Hons.) (BCCE) (Approved by MQA & MOHE (N/523/6/0070))

These programs are designed to prepare students for professional careers and higher advancement in the area of communication, electronics, computers, control systems, signal processing, power engineering and other related areas. The curriculums for these undergraduate programs require a strong foundation in mathematics, calculus, physics, computer literacy and programming. Engineering courses begin from the first year itself and include topics, among others, electrical circuits, electronics, digital logic design, microprocessors, signals & system, control systems, and data communication and network. In addition to these topics, students taking BEEE programme will also be exposed to specialized topics such as electrical machines & drives, power systems, process control and instrumentation, communication systems; while students enrolling in BCCE will be exposed to topics related to computer architectures, operating systems, embedded systems, communication electronics, and digital communications. Laboratory works which include electrical measurement techniques, application of non-linear devices, digital logic design, electrical machines, microprocessor, signal processing, computer networks and communication are intended to reinforce the principles obtained in the classroom. In addition, many engineering courses are classified as design courses and complemented by computer aided engineering software as simulation and design tools, thus further consolidating the understanding of engineering principles and its application. Students are also required to take language and social science courses to make them become more well-balanced in terms of technical and social knowledge and skills. In the end of the third year, students will go through industrial training where they will be attached with industries all over Malaysia. This provides insights to students on the real working environment outside. During the final year, the students are free to choose several topics from technical electives, to specialize deeper in an area of their interest. They can choose to streamline to a particular options grouping. Design project courses (the Capstone Design and the Final Year Project) during the final year will aid students in gaining experience of current technology and equipment usage as well as provide opportunities to apply engineering principles that they have acquired earlier on, and even further advance into investigative research.
