Electrical Engineering and Physics is a major that enables the student
to obtain electrical engineering skills in addition to a deep
understanding of physics. This specialization is concerned with topics
related to energy, electromagnetism, electronics, communications,
digital processing, semiconductors, optics and quantum physics, in
addition to most electrical engineering and physics topics. Topics
related to energy include energy production, transmission and
distribution with high efficiency. Renewable energy sources are also
discussed as a permanent and environmentally friendly source. The
electromagnetic side is concerned with the transmission of waves and
methods of designing antennas and optical fibers. In electronics we
cover the designs of electronic circuits and logic circuits used in the
fields of communications, computing, and military and defense systems.
As for the communications aspect, it covers wired and wireless systems
and their applications, data encryption and networks. The digital
processing includes the analysis and processing of digital signals and
their medical, industrial and artificial intelligence applications. This
specialization also includes multiple applications of semiconductors,
optics and quantum physics.
A student in his final year of the program may choose between several elective courses, or enroll in one of the following concentrations:
▪ Electrical Instrumentation and Sensors ▪ Communication Systems ▪ Computational Analytics ▪ Computer Networks ▪ Decision Analytics ▪ Drone Design and Applications ▪ Electronic Defense Systems ▪ Energy Efficiency ▪ Internet of Things ▪ Laser and Microwave Sensing ▪ Process Safety ▪ Quantum Information and Computing
As for the fields of
work for which this specialization qualifies, they vary between: ▪
Electrical Power Systems ▪ Electronics ▪ Solid State Devices and
Robotics ▪ Signal Processing ▪ Telecommunications ▪ Military Industries ▪
Integrative Circuits and Computers ▪ Power Transmission Systems ▪ Laser
Applications ▪ Nanotechnology ▪ Quality Laboratories ▪ Nuclear Power
