Course Overview
Electrical and Electronics Engineering is essential to the modern world, encompassing everything from energy and automation through to communications and transport. The B.Eng (Hons) Electrical and Electronic Engineering program is designed to equip students with the skills to succeed as the engineers of the future.
The B.Eng (Hons) Electrical and Electronics Engineering degree at Bells University aims to produce young men and women who shall be able to revolutionize the rather retrogressive or stagnant status of black African technology and be able to make their marks in contributing to technological advancement on the world terrain.
The curriculum aims to support students in bridging the gap between the University and professional work by developing skills that are required by industry. The program offers condensed yet impactful modules that are designed to arm our students with knowledge, skills, and tools in Digital electronics, control systems, electrical/electronic circuit design, power systems embedded systems etc. in order to maximize their opportunities to secure a great career.
Department Of Electrical, Electronic & Telecommunication Engineering has five main Programme Educational Objectives (PEOs)
To provide a broad foundation of theoretical and practical knowledge in the areas of electrical and electronic circuits, digital circuits, computers, electrical machinery, and programmable logic controls.
Demonstrate broad knowledge of electrical and electronics engineering technology practices to support design, application, installation, manufacturing, operation, and maintenance as required by their employer.
Apply knowledge, techniques, skills, and modern tools of mathematics, science, engineering, or technology to solve broadly defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline.
To have knowledge of Electrical & Electronics Engineering in particular, so as to acquire the necessary skills for analysis of problems in the generation, transmission, and distribution.
To have technical knowledge and skills to identify, comprehend and solve complex tasks in industry and research and be inspired to become future researchers or scientists with innovative ideas.
B.Eng (Hons) Electrical and Electronics Engineering is a 5-year Degree Programme.
Students undergo Students Works Experience Programme (SWEP) for a period of three months at the end of their 200 level. They engage in three (3) and six (6) months of Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES) in 300 & 400 level respectively which gives the student at least nine (9) months of working industrial experience before graduating from the University.
At 500 level, the students will undergo coursework and supervised projects in their areas of interest and present results orally before a panel of examiners, that is, by oral presentation and defense.
The degree programme aims to prepare its graduates for a variety of career paths in areas such as energy, transportation, electrical and microelectronics. This can include working with sensor networks, automotive electronics, in the microprocessor industry, and in the aerospace and satellite sectors.
B.Eng (Hons) in Electrical/Electronic Engineering from Bells University of Technology also gives every graduate a cutting-edge advantage whose desire is to venture into the field of power and industrial systems, renewable energy and sustainable energy management because we teach and equip our students with deep insights required to flourish in these spheres of human endeavour.
Undergraduate Admission Requirement
In order to gain admission into Electrical and Electronics Engineering Programme at Bells University of Technology, all applicants must have completed a minimum “O” Level result of Five (5) credits including English, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology.
Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee acceptance into the program.
Direct Entry (200 Level)
Direct Entry (200L) applicants are those who have attended a post-secondary institution or have completed fewer than 24 credit hours at a recognized university or college. Direct entry applicants must have one of the following minimum requirements:
- A minimum of two ‘A’ Level passes in science subjects including Physics and one of Biology, Mathematics or Chemistry.
- C.E (Technical) with at least Credit in Mathematics, Biology and one other Science subject.
National Diploma in any discipline in Engineering with at least an Upper Credit from a recognized University or Polytechnic.
Direct Entry (300 Level)
Direct Entry (300L) applicants are those who have attended a post-secondary institution or have completed fewer than 24 credit hours at a recognized university or college. Direct entry applicants must have the following minimum requirement:
- Higher National Diploma in any discipline in Engineering with at least a Lower Credit from a recognized University or Polytechnic
Experiential Learning
Gaining relevant experience is an essential part of earning a B.Eng degree. This required program component will allow students to gain valuable work experience and career connections.
While support and guidance is available through the Engineering and Career Services to assist students with your job search, resume writing and interviewing skills, it is ultimately the responsibility of the student to satisfy the program requirement.
