Department of Electronics Engineering

 PROGRAMS OFFERED

BE(E) - BE(CS)

In pursuance of the mission to deliver a better education, Iqra offers Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Information Systems B.E. (CIS) and Bachelor of Engineering in Electronics B.E. (E) programmes. These degree programmes are for aspiring Engineering and Technology professionals, providing them with excellent career prospects both in the development and application of computer systems, with particular emphasis towards the hardware aspects including communications technology. Iqra University aims to prepare graduates who will be qualified to pursue careers with manufacturers, software houses, and computer end-users as Hardware, Software and Application Professionals or Consultants. The Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) programmes are full-time four-year degree programmes involving the study and design of computer systems, electronics and associated system software. It covers the knowledge and techniques concerned with the design and explanation of electronics and computer technology in the development of information processing systems. The courses of these programmes emphasize the architecture of hardware and software surroundings, converting the computer from a box of electronics into a sophisticated information-processing tool.The programmes focus on the ways in which hardware and software are constructed and provides and insight into the purpose of each of the major components of a large computing systems.

The special objectives of the programme are:

• To develop a fundamental understanding of the electronic principles, computer architecture, software and data communication requirements of relevance to emerging technologies.
   

• To develop in-depth skills required for design, implementation and performance analysis of cost-effective computing systems and data networks.
   

• To integrate acquired skills and knowledge through the final year project.
