Electronic Engineering and Communication Department

_

Overview:

Electronic Engineering and Communication Department was established in the academic year 1996–1997, coinciding with the founding of Hadhramout University.

The department is distinguished by its excellent laboratory capabilities. It is equipped with advanced labs containing numerous laboratory devices that students are trained to use for their scientific research and graduation projects.

The department also has computer labs equipped with specialized software, recognizing the importance of preparing students to use essential programs in their field of study to ensure that graduates are well-prepared to participate effectively in the modern technological era.

The duration of study in the department is five academic years, after which students are awarded a Bachelor’s degree in Electronic Engineering and Communication upon successful completion of all requirements and examinations. The curriculum includes both fundamental and applied courses in materials and electronic circuits, electrical circuits, digital logic, digital system design, digital electronics, electromagnetic waves, electric motors, communication systems, optoelectronics, control systems, microprocessors, communication transmission and exchange, digital communications, and microwave communications.

The department emphasizes the use of specialized scientific software and integrates theoretical knowledge with practical application through field visits to factories, companies, and institutions, as well as hands-on training in departmental labs and external organizations.

Graduates of the department are qualified to work in designing, developing, maintaining, and managing various communication systems, solving interference problems, managing engineering projects, analyzing costs, designing, developing, and maintaining advanced communication systems and networks, including antenna systems, satellite communications, digital communications, and signal processing systems. They are also capable of designing and maintaining electronic circuits and systems used in communication, control, computing, and other civilian or military systems.

Mission
