ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF

INTRODUCTION The Department of Electrical & Information Engineering offers Honour degrees in three programmes namely: Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) in Computer Engineering Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) in Electrical & Electronics Engineering Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) in Information & Communication Technology The duration of each of the degree programmes in the Department is five years or ten semesters. Nine semesters of course work and laboratory practicals are spent in the university. The long vacation of eight weeks between 200 level and 300 level is devoted to SWEP (Students Work Experience Programme) in the different work and production centres of the university (e.g., Wood mill, batching plant, metal fabrication workshop, bakery, Hebron water, Dominion press, CLMT, construction sites, etc.). The 400 level students embark on SIWES (Students Industrial Experience Scheme) which involves six months of industrial training, starting immediately after the alpha semester. As a result of the commonalities existing among the three programmes, the first three years, that is 100, 200, 300 levels, are 100% common to the three programmes. JUSTIFICATION FOR THE PROGRAMMES IN THE DEPARTMENT In the electromechanical age, electrical engineering as a discipline was monolithic. The name Department of Electrical Engineering was adopted by Universities offering the programme. Then came the era of microelectronics which broadened the discipline to electrical and electronic engineering; and Department of Electrical & Electronic Engineering became the order of the day. The computer age followed and it became fashionable to have Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. The new realm now is an Information age and in order to cope effectively with industrys labour demand it is imperative to design programmes and curricula to meet this demand. Hence, the new nomenclature of Department of Electrical and Information Engineering; and the programmes offered in this Department. PHILOSOPHY The philosophy of the Department of Electrical and Information Engineering is drawn from Covenant Universitys philosophy, which is succinctly captioned Promoting Mental Productivity with the objective of turning out graduates that are expert thinkers and prudent managers in their respective fields. Electrical and Information Engineering as the backbone of a knowledge economy is highly dynamic and versatile. Therefore, the Departments programmes are such as to contribute effectively and sufficiently to the

knowledge economy by putting in place curricula that meet these challenges in computer engineering; electrical and electronic engineering; and information and communications technology. The training is to produce graduates who are producers rather than mere consumers of a knowledge economy, by being, upon graduation, ready-made functional engineers in industries, research assistants, scholars in academia, or successful entrepreneurs in electrical and information engineering. OBJECTIVES In order to accomplish the philosophy of the Department, emphasis will be placed on the following objectives: To facilitate good grasp of a broad spectrum of engineering principles To facilitate experience. acquisition of practical work

To inculcate entrepreneurial, marketing, and management skills To engage extensively in electrical and information engineering research and development.

DEGREE REQUIREMENTS The degree requirement for Bachelor of Engineering, B.Eng. Honours, in Electrical & Information Engineering for the three programmes is for a student to register for and pass a minimum of 215 credit units as detailed below.

COLLEGE-WIDE COMPULSORY COURSES

The College-wide Courses are those courses (some of which are custom-built) that are required for ALL the students in a particular College. They are Compulsory Courses that must be taken by all students in that College. Presently only one out of the three Colleges do not have College-wide compulsory courses. The College-wide courses available at the moment are: a) the College-wide Courses for College of Business and Social Sciences - tagged CBS b) the College-wide Courses for College of Human Development - tagged HMD The detailed list of these courses are given in tables (c) and (d) below.
