The Electrical and
Computer Engineering (ECE) department has been established
in 2005 to provide graduates that will have careers in
modern industries such as hardware design, software
engineering, communications, power systems, control,
instrumentation, and many other industries. A wide range of
these industries already exists in the Sultanate and in the
region.
The
ECE department offers Bachelor of Science degrees in
Computer and Communications Engineering, Electrical and
Electronics Engineering, and Software Engineering. The
department also offers Diploma degrees in Electrical and
Computer Engineering and Software Engineering, and a minor
in Information Technology. |

The objectives of the program are to:
-
Prepare students for leadership roles in the major fields
of study in a highly competitive and challenging
environment.
-
Prepare students for life-long learning, critical and
independent thinking, sound judgment, professional ethics,
and innovation.
-
Promote excellence in education and research, and provide
services to the community at large with special
consideration to the needs and circumstances of the
Sultanate of Oman and the region.
-
Offer an American-style education of the highest standard
compatible with the guidelines of the US Accrediting Board
for Engineering and Technology (ABET).
Final
Year Project
As part of their fourth
year, students are required to carry out a project and
submit a technical report. This project is a substantial
piece of work that will require creative activity and
original thinking. Students in groups, normally three
per group, are supervised while working on a project
accounting for three-credits, extending over a full
academic year. The project aims to provide students
with a transitional experience from the academic world
to the professional world. It is designed to serve as a
platform in which CCE, EEE and SE students in teams
engage in a meaningful design experience requiring the
solution of engineering design projects.
Practical
Training/Summer Internship
All
fourth year engineering students are required to fulfill
a summer internship period of 8 to 12 weeks.
This
graduation requirement entails that each student gain
practical training experience during the summer
prior
to graduation with either a company or another academic
institution.
