The University made the decision to merge BSc. Telecommunications Engineering with BSc.Computer Engineering, with a view of running a broad programme that facilitates cutting-edge and relevant research, while creating better and more job opportunities for our graduates. The proposed programme will be named BSc. Computer and Communications Engineering, but still subject to approval. The proposed programme’s curriculum has already been developed, with input from all stakeholders, and the approval process is underway and will be completed in time for the next admission process.
The new programme will benefit the students in many ways including:

1. Providing a wider scope for employment opportunities in the various fields of Computer and Communications Engineering, for example, embedded electronics
design and manufacturing, computer programming, artificial intelligence and machine learning, medical imaging and devices, Wireless Networks and Mobile Communications, computer networks, computer-based automation and control, broadcasting, and satellite communication among others.
2. The students will be guided to choose an area of specialization from a variety of courses in Year 3 and 4, while maintaining a broad uniform foundation in Year 1 and
3. In the proposed programme, there will be an emphasis on problem-based learning, where real-world problems in industry will be used as a vehicle to promote student
learning.
