The Electrical Engineering department at KFUPM came into existence with the establishment of the University of Petroleum & Minerals in 1967. It is one of the largest departments in the University with an average number of students being approximately 900, 16% of whom are in the graduate program. The department provides 2 four-year undergraduate programs, Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and Physics. The graduate program offers Master of Science and Master of Engineering in Electrical Engineering, Master of Science in Telecommunication Engineering, Master of Sustainable and Renewable Energy, Master of Wireless Communication Networks, and Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering.
The department has about 61 full-time faculty members in 6 specialized areas of research. The Groups in the department are: Energy Systems, Communications, Electronics, Control Systems, Electromagnetics, and Digital Signal Processing. Additionally, a pool of experienced engineers and technicians maintain more than 30 laboratories in the department.
To be globally known for skillful graduates and quality research with focus on national needs.

Dr. Naveed Iqbal made a presentation tilted "The Site Selection of Nuclear Reactor Near The Oil And Gas Exploration Region" on Tuesday 14th of November 2023.
the site selection for a nuclear reactor is a crucial safety and security activity with escalating demands. The prospect of using seismic data to estimate the operational behavior of the nuclear reactor is intriguing. Visualization and analysis of continuous data recorded at a seismic station away from the reactor site can be helpful in this regard. In this work, we investigate the potential for inferring the impact of an operational reactor from seismic data acquisition. The obtained data exhibit an apparent relationship between seismic features and reactor primary operational frequency. The short-time frequency transform is utilized to analyze the frequency components. The outcomes are helpful in choosing the potential nuclear reactor site in an oil and gas-rich region.
