Description
Summary:The Electrical Engineering undergraduate educational program in the country has undergone some kind of stagnation during the past twenty years, and this has caused a mismatch between this education and the up-to-date world’s technology. In addition the existing program does not satisfy the industrial and social needs of the country in this era. This deficiency in the present educational program can lead to educating engineers who have a good knowledge about “Principles and Fundamentals” and are ready to work on theoretical and scientific subjects, while they are not ready to work as an engineer who can respond to the technological challenges of the country and to manage effectively parts of the industrial potential of the country and result in a surplus or improvement in the net national product of the country. To fulfil a thorough investigation on the subject a committee was assigned, in 2004, in the Electrical Engineering Department of Sharif University of Technology to develop a complete restructured undergraduate program in Electrical Engineering, based on the up-to-date and active measures. This paper briefly presents the developed educational program out of this task, which aims to renew and update the structure, and the content of the undergraduate educational program of the Electrical Engineering at Sharif University of Technology.
