Bachelor of Electronic and Electrical Engineering with Honors

Electronic and Electrical Engineering specializes in electrical and electronic equipment, interfaces, and communications. Electrical engineering tends to focus on larger scale electrical equipment and power, whilst electronic engineering is more focused on electronic circuits and devices, computer and communication systems. It gives a fascinating insight into how electrical devices and technology work in a future that will likely be full of new electric technologies.

The program will give students strong technical knowledge in a variety of areas, which could include electronics, signal processing, power engineering, computer and communication systems, and engineering management. Alongside the theories, the students will also learn through hands-on practical exposure to ensure that they are prepared for engineering work upon graduation.

A degree in Electronic and Electrical Engineering gives many career options. Graduates can venture into a variety of industries such as electronics, telecommunications, robotics, computer engineering, power systems, medical equipment, and more.

Sunway University's Bachelor of Electronic and Electrical Engineering with Honours (BEng Hons) is recognized as equivalent to that of Lancaster University's Master of Engineering Electronic and Electrical Engineering with Honours (MEng Hons). Upon successfully completing the program, Sunway University BEng Hons graduates will also be awarded the MEng Hons degree from Lancaster University. They will be awarded two certificates, making them graduates of both Sunway University and Lancaster University.

Why Study Here?

Holistic Education

The US education system is one of the most flexible in the world, offering students unlimited choices of courses and focusing on an all-around learning experience. Adopting the US liberal arts approach of inclusiveness, industry relevance, and flexibility, Sunway ADTP has a strong track record of producing well-rounded students equipped for American higher learning.

Seamless Transfer into American Universities

We engage professors from US universities to deliver parts of our academic content. Each year, more than 100 US universities visit Sunway University providing a valuable opportunity for students to engage with and seek advice from admission counselors. We also host representatives from Western Michigan University (WMU) on campus who provide counseling services to students transferring to WMU.

Academic Mentorship and Support

Each ADTP student is assigned an academic advisor who will provide academic guidance and support. Our student-lecturer engagement is high extending over and beyond the classroom. One in four of our lecturers consistently receives “excellent teaching” awards.

Extracurricular Advantage

Each semester our students engage in out-of-class activities e.g. running projects and charity programs as part of their assignments, volunteering in cultural performances, or participating in international conferences. We celebrate bank holidays like Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Independence Day, and Thanksgiving.

University Placement Guidance

We conduct workshops on all aspects of the transfer process—from selecting suitable universities and preparing applications to transitioning abroad. Our “Freshman Seminars” equip students with skills to succeed as a freshman. Our placement team continually supports students to transfer into “best fit” colleges. We receive study-abroad-semester students from US and non-US universities each year, many of which are our alumni for summer semesters. On top of our summer semester subject offerings, we support our alumni by providing referrals, offering proctoring services, and providing internship opportunities.
