Bachelor of Engineering Technology (Electrical)

Course Description

As an electrical engineering technologist, a workday could involve being busy specifying, designing, or supervising the construction of systems and equipment that produce, distribute or use electricity, calculating costs and materials needed, bidding for contracts, overseeing electricity system tests and writing reports or even instruction manuals. Electrical engineering includes the specialist area of mechatronics, which merges the two disciplines of mechanical engineering and electronics, and power engineering, for in-depth knowledge of the fundamental components of power automated systems. This programme is for those who want a career in engineering. Students will learn theory and hands-on practical skills using modern technology in our engineering labs. If students are in employment, the project module can be tailored to their workplace. Graduates may be employed in roles such as Electrical engineering technologist, Electrical services engineer, Power systems engineer, Control systems engineer, Robotics/automation engineer, Control system engineer, Lighting and building services engineer, Technical sales or field services engineer, Technologies roles within electrical, lighting, building, and power industries.
