Program Overview

The Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) program was started in Fall 2002. The Electrical Engineering program at COMSATS University is designed to provide students core knowledge and skills in Electrical Engineering with specialization in Power, Telecommunications, Electronics, Computer and Controls.

The Electrical Engineering program nurtures its graduates to be competent in professional practice and fulfill the technological needs of society in an ethical, moral, and socially responsible manner. Moreover, the students are trained to communicate effectively and show management and entrepreneurial potential. The students are engaged in life-long learning to continually enhance personal and professional capabilities.

The curriculum, labs, workshops, and industrial placements equip the students with the latest tools and techniques relevant to national and international industry. The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering has an active industrial advisory board which continually provides feedback on our curriculum in relevance to the current industrial requirements.

Curriculum Overview

The core courses are designed to develop complex engineering problem solving skills of students in the areas of power, signal processing and communications, embedded systems, IoT, software programming, digital system design, control and automation, AI and machine learning.

The students also take courses in humanities, management and social sciences to enhance their soft skills. In the final year of studies, the students are required to complete a capstone project in which they demonstrate their knowledge and skills gained during the course the program.
