Electrical and Electronic Engineering

From renewable energy to smart electronics, we spark innovation in communication, automation, and systems that keep the world connected.

The Overview of Electrical and Electronic Engineering

Electrical and Electronic Engineering are concerned with the application of Electrical sciences and Technology to the need of the society. They are primarily concerned with the processes of generation, transmission, transformation, control and utilization of energy and information. Areas of research and training in the programme include Power system, Energy conversion, High voltage, Electronic circuit design, Communications, Antennas, Micro-waves, signal processing, Electronic device fabrication, Computers, signal processing, control systems, etc. The curriculum exposes students to the breath of electrical and electronic engineering and allows them to pursue electives in several areas mentioned above. The curriculum includes first year courses in Mathematics, Basic Sciences, General Studies and other courses common to all engineering students, followed by core courses in Electrical and Electronic Engineering.

 The Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering is dedicated to find solution to big challenges and preparing students for leadership in a complex world. This is line with the vision of Edo State University Uzairue is to become a centre of excellence in quality teaching, research, innovations and community development.


The National University Commission (NUC) gave approval to the Edo State University Uzairue management to commence admission into the programmes in the Faculty of Engineering in the 2016/2017 academic session.  The Engineering Programmes approved are Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering.

The Electrical and Electronic Engineering programme was established and groomed in readiness for takeoff by technocrats and academics of high repute.  The first admission of students into the programme was in 2016/2017 Session in which the students came in through the Joint Admission Matriculations Board (JAMB) Entrance Examination in the first admission exercise. The Department took off with its laboratories equipped and a functional central engineering workshop. The Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria (COREN) gave approval for the pre-accreditation of Electrical and Computer Engineering programme in 2018
