B. Eng (Hons) in Electrical & Electronic Engineering

This course provides an opportunity for students to obtain knowledge, skills, and abilities required for the application in the fields of communication and the IT industry through a well-balanced curriculum which includes the study of signals and computing. This high-quality undergraduate engineering education is also hoped to provide students with a comprehensive curriculum that is firmly grounded in electrical & electronic engineering fundamentals. It also involves a study in both areas of electronics fundamentals as well as electrical power systems including the areas of generation, transmission, and distribution of electrical energy. APU Engineering Degrees are fully accredited by the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) which is a signatory to the Washington Accord. 

This program is specifically designed to offer students:

• A high-quality undergraduate education in engineering, with a curriculum grounded in the fundamentals of electrical and electronic engineering.
• Comprehensive study in both electronics fundamentals and electrical power systems, including the generation, transmission, and distribution of electrical energy.

Any qualification that APU accepts as equivalent to the above.

Note: The above entry requirements may differ for specific programmes based on the latest programme standards published by Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA). The qualification and entry requirements for the programmes will be determined based on the "Comparison List of Equivalency of International Qualifications with SPM (O-Levels equivalent) and STPM (A-Levels equivalent)" published by Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA).

Candidates who wish to study Engineering Degree course must not be color blind or physically handicapped which makes him/her unable to conduct experimental/practical work and affect the learning process leading to potential errors towards professional practice as well. This is in line with the requirements of engineering professional bodies where safe engineering practices is mandatory. All International Students need to go through EMGS Medical Screening, if the student is found to be color blind; the Medical Screening maybe failed.
