HEAD’S WELCOME


Dear Students,
Welcome to the Department of Electrical Engineering (EE)! All of us in EE, the faculty, staff, and the EE Programme Management Team are ready to walk you through a transformation journey into the future leaders of technologies.
Achieving the goal is never easy. Conscientiousness and persistence to get most from your studies are the keys to success. The Department is here to provide all the necessary support. The programmes are relevant to the local community as well as having global impacts. Co-curricular initiatives including those career-related are designed to add value to students’ whole-person development, ever considered as important as mastering strong technical knowledge for an outstanding graduate.
We have many successful stories of our graduates. Our faculty and staff are especially proud of our students’ enthusiasm to think big in their career dreams, their achievements in student competitions, and students’ novel and innovative ideas integrated nicely with hands-on experience. We are here to serve you and to provide you with the best resources available.
I am sure your aspiration for a fruitful journey will bring you final satisfaction and unexpected rewards.


Stella Pang
Chair Professor and Head
Department of Electrical Engineering

Major Intended Learning Outcomes


1. Major Aim
   

   The aim of this major is to provide students with a strong foundation and broad skills in computer and data technologies. Students will be equipped with the theoretical and practical aspects of computer systems. The curriculum encompasses hardware and software design, multimedia technologies, data analytics and security, cloud computing systems, and artificial intelligence. Upon completion of the major, students will be sufficiently prepared for employment, and to pursue postgraduate studies and engage in life-long learning.

2. Major Intended Learning Outcome: Demonstrable Outcomes
   
   On completion of the major, students should have the following demonstrable learning outcomes:


1. An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering.
2. An ability to design and conduct experiments as well as to analyze and interpret data.
3. An ability to design a system, component, or process that conforms to a given specification within realistic constraints.
4. An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams.
5. An ability to identify, evaluate, formulate and solve engineering problems.
6. Awareness of professional and ethical responsibilities.
7. An ability to communicate effectively.
8. Knowledge in contemporary issues and an awareness of the impact of engineering solutions in a broad, global and societal context.
9. Recognition of the need for life-long learning.
10. An ability to use necessary engineering tools.
