Electrical and Electronic Engineering Course

Course (Program) studies and educational goals

The rate at which science and technology develop in the field of electrical and electronic engineering is astonishing. Electronics technology has been positioned as the industrial infrastructure of today’s society. Also, the development and utilization of electronics technology and information communications technology is needed to enrich society and lifestyles in areas such as medicine, welfare, and the environment. Our aim is to cultivate electronics engineers who can meet this societal demand, “have a global perspective, a humanity supported by an abundant cultural education, flexible adaptability, and the ability to establish and solve problems, therefore we have established the following studies and educational goals.

(A)Deepen students understanding of science and technology, and acquire the necessary fundamental knowledge in order to solve problems, such as mathematics and physics.

• Acquire a fundamental knowledge of mathematics, such as linear algebra and calculus.
• Acquire a fundamental knowledge of physics, such as dynamics, electromagnetics, and thermodynamics.
• Acquire a fundamental knowledge of applied mathematics, such as differential equations, complex analysis, and vector analysis.

(B) Acquire the education and qualities necessary to be a productive member of society who possesses a global perspective and broad overview.

• Cultivate the ability to understand English correctly and express one’s self appropriately.
• Acquire a vast education ranging in fields from science and engineering to humanities and social sciences
• Acquire the ability to think about things from other people’s and other countries’ points of view.

(C)Learn how to effectively use computer networks and programming methods, and the ability to put that knowledge to use.

• Understand how to operate a computer, and learn how to use software.
• Understand the principles of network structure and use it in information searches and communications.
