2. THE VISION, MISSION, OBJECTIVES AND PHILOSOPHY

The USM’s mission held by the School of Electrical & Electronic Engineering is
to be mutually understanding, working together towards providing quality
education and service which is efficient and professional. This is achieved
through the acquisition of vast knowledge, most advanced innovation and
expertise while at the same time staying true to the noble values.

The Vision of the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering is as follows:-


“To be the national leader in education and research in the field of Electrical
and Electronic Engineering through excellence in student education,
engagement of relevant constituents, professional services and quality
research”.

The Mission of the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering is as


follows:-
“The mission of the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering Universiti
Sains Malaysia is to provide quality education and sustainable research that
produces professionals with the necessary knowledge, skills and character that
are required for the advancement of engineering and technology”.

In line with this, the offering of Bachelor’s Degree in Electronic, Electrical and
Mechatronic Engineering are designed to produce Electrical, Electronic and
Mechatronic engineers with professional qualifications, skilled and
knowledgable, credible and able to find solutions to various engineering
problems through innovative thinking.

Based on this philosophy, the goals of the curriculum of every study


programmes have been designed to fulfil the nation’s Vision 2020, as well as
industrial and current technological advancement needs. Hence, the curriculum
has been organised to have the following characteristics :

• recognised by professional bodies (BEM, IEM) as well as to be


internationally acclaimed
• proper and balanced integration of practical and theoretical aspects
• with a complete choice of many well planned and advanced specialisation
• to build persons of sound character who are knowledgeable, competent and
innovative

With the above characteristics, USM graduates will become graduate engineers
of excellence, calibre and able to achieve the high level of professionalism as
engineers or researchers in their respective fields.

3. IMPLEMENTATION OF OUTCOME BASED EDUCATION (OBE)

Starting from the 2006/2007 academic session, the new intake of students will
undergo a set of curriculum known as Outcome Based Education.

Briefly, OBE is a method of curriculum design and teaching that focuses on


what students can actually do after they are taught.

Under OBE, there are three Programme Educational Objectives (PEO) :-

To produce graduates who:

(a) are employable, competent, able to solve engineering problems, able to


adapt and actively participate in new advancements and their
applications in a multidisciplinary environment.
(b) possess sound leadership and professional skills, qualities and attitudes
towards clients, society, environments and creator.
(c) are productive, creative and innovative with a sense of entrepreneurship
and recognize the importance of lifelong learning.

Whereas the Programme Outcomes (PO) are as followers:-

(i) Ability to apply knowledge of mathematis and science in Electrical and


Electronic Enginering.
(ii) Ability to use current techniques, skills and engineering tools
necessary for solving Electrical and Electronic Engineering problems.
(iii) Ability to design and develop an Electrical and Electronic Engineering
system in fullfilling desired needs within practical constraints.
(iv) Ability to communicate and function in multi-deciplinary
environments.
(v) Ability to identify, analyse, formulate, and solve Electrical and
Electronic Engineering problems both efficiently and economically.
(vi) Ability to understand and adhere to professional practices and ethical
responsibilities.
(vii) Ability to undertsand the impact of engineering solutions in a global,
economic, environmental, and societal context.
(viii) Ability to recognise the need and engage in life-long learning.
(ix) A sound knowledge of contemporary issues.

4. GRADUATE STUDY AND RESEARCH PROGRAMMES

The school also offers Graduate Study Programmes through research in various
engineering fields for the Masters in Science Degree (M.Sc) or Doctor of
Philosophy Degree (Ph.D). Both courses may be taken in full-time or part-time
mode in the areas as listed below:
• Microelectronics
• Microwave Engineering and RF
3
• Image Processing
• Power Engineering
• Control, Robotics and Automation
• Neural Networks
• Embedded Systems Design
• Mechatronic Engineering
• Communication Systems
• Antennas and Propagation

Every candidate of the Masters in Science Degree (M.Sc) programme must fulfil
the University enrolment requirements, and are usually graduates with good
honours degree (at least with CGPA of 2.75) or equivalent qualifications in the
Science or Engineering courses. Candidates with qualifications lower than
Second Class will also be considered if they have a vast experience in some
specific areas of specialisation and approved by the School Board.

To further enhance the Post Graduate programmes, a Masters in Science Degree


Programme by Coursework has been introduced as of the 2003/2004 academic
session. This degree is known as Masters in Science (M.Sc) Electronic Systems
Design Engineering.

5. LABORATORY FACILITIES

All of the labs at the School are equipped with modern and advanced facilities to
support the Undergraduate and Post Graduate study programmes as well as
serving to the needs for academic excellence.

The School has a number of laboratories for both teaching and research
purposes. Among the labs are:
