1. Program Name:

Bachelor of Science in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (B.Sc. in EEE)

2. Name of the Department:

Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE)

3. Objectives and Goal:

The increasing needs for electrical and electronic engineers in worldwide job markets need not be overemphasized. To keep pace with the advancement in electrical and electronic engineering and provide emphasis in fulfilling the needs, it is essential that efforts are made both in the public and private sectors to develop human resources in this particular field in Bangladesh. The prime objective in establishing the Electrical and Electronic Engineering Department under the Faculty of Science at the Manarat International University is to make a concerted effort towards achieving the goal to provide quality education of 4 years duration at the undergraduate level. The courses in the undergraduate programs are designed to give students a rigorous and comprehensive academic training on both the fundamental and advanced aspects of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE). A student in EEE must not only have a sound basis in the fundamental of Engineering but also should be aware of socio-economic problems of the country. Therefore, courses in science, humanities, economics and management are also included in the curricula. The last two semesters will offer the students a number of alternatives to choose from and to specialize in a particular field. Theory and sessional work will be supplemented by Project/Thesis work, seminars and visits to relevant research and industrial organization.

Semesters:

There will be three semesters in an academic year, which are:

• Spring : January - April (Four Months)

• Summer : May – August (Four Months)

• Fall : September – December (Four Months

Each semester will be of 15 weeks’ duration with 12 weeks for class teaching, one week break for examination preparation and two weeks for examinations.

Duration of the Program:

The duration for B.Sc. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering program will be four years_ divided into 12 semesters.

Course Load

(a) For Regular Student:

A student must not be allowed to take more than five courses in a trimester. Otherwise he/she will be graduated in ten/eleven semesters. Only students with CGPA above 3.75 may be allowed to take maximum 18 credits per semester. But he/she will not be allowed to graduate in ten semesters.

(b) For Part – Time Student:

A part – time student will not be allowed to complete degree within twelve semesters. So he/she will not be allowed to register not more than 10 credits per semester.

7. Credit-hour:

Three credit hours are assigned to a theory course if there are three hours lecture in a week. A class period for theory courses will have duration of 60 minutes and there will be 3 theory classes per week for 3 credits. One credit of lab course will have a minimum of 36 -hours of actual lab works per semester. That is for 1.5 credits there will a lab class of 3 hours per week.

8. Degree Requirement:

(a) Degree will be offered after completion of minimum 147 credit hours.

(b) Passing of all courses individually and maintaining a minimum CGPA of 2.00.

9. Admission

Minimum 2nd division in both S.S.C. and H.S.C. with science background or five subjects in O-level and three major subjects (Math and Physics) in A-level education are required. The students who have completed S.S.C. and H.S.C. under GPA system will have to have a minimum CGPA of 2.5. The 0- and A-level students must have an average grade of B. Those having Diploma engineering in Electrical/ Electronics/ Computer/ Telecommunication/ Power/ Mechanical/ Mechatronics/Automobile/Instrumentation and Process control/Environmental Engineering/Civil/Surveying/Shipbuilding/Data Telecommunication and Networking Technology/Aircraft Maintenance/ Electro medical/Refrigeration and Air Condition/ Marine/Chemical Engineering/Glass and Ceramics also eligible for admission.

10. Grading System

Letter grading will be made to assess students' performance. The grade will be assigned on the overall evaluation of a student's performance on the basis of semester final examination, midterm exam, case studies, tutorial test, term papers, assignment and class attendance in aggregate and whatever is applicable for an individual program. The teachers responsible for the course will determine Grades/GPA. The final result will be prepared by cumulating the grade point average over the courses. The UGC approved uniform grading system is adopted for assigning a letter grade and grade point. This is given in the following table:
