2. Create an academic environment conducive to learning new technologies and engineering concepts;
3. Introduce students to research on advanced engineering topics;
4. Cultivate analytical skills and critical thinking;
5. Provide specialization and extensive knowledge on the areas of concentration;
6. Promote engineering ethics and moral practices.

Objectives

The objectives of the programme are to:

1. Provide specialized advanced knowledge and tools to our graduates in order to cope successfully in a technologically challenging environment;
2. Facilitate learning in areas of electrical engineering that are directly linked to industry and current state-of-the-art technology;
3. Provide the theoretical and computational skills necessary for the solution of both theoretical and practical engineering problems;
4. Provide practical and experimental hands-on experience that allows the students to link directly to fundamental knowledge and theory;
5. Prepare graduates to work alone or in groups in order to provide engineering solutions;
6. Prepare graduates to design/implement systems and processes towards the solution of engineering problems;
7. Promote research, develop research skills and provide fundamental knowledge to support a successful career in research and development;
8. Develop the ability of the graduates to write technical reports and scientific papers as well as to present their work before an audience;
9. Provide the graduates with the opportunity to develop a greater technical competence in their area and become successful professionals throughout their lifetime;
10. Prepare graduates for admission to a PhD program in electrical engineering.

Μαθησιακά Αποτελέσματα

Upon successful completion of the programme the graduates will be able to:

1. Apply fundamental knowledge of science and engineering;
2. Identify, formulate and solve complex electrical engineering problems;
3. Design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data;
4. Design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints;
5. Develop solutions that meet the desired needs within the economic, manufacturing and sustainability borders;
6. Use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice and research;
7. Function and communicate effectively in multi-disciplinary teams.

The student must complete 90 ECTS. A minimum cumulative grade point average (CPA) of 2.0 is required. Thus, although a ‘D- ‘is a PASS grade, in order to achieve a CPA of 2.0 an average grade of ‘C’ is required.
