Course Description

The aim of this degree programme is to develop learners into qualified engineers who are both academically prepared and practically trained to satisfy the requirements of the local electronics industry. Electronics is still a highly relevant and attractive technological field that has evolved at a rapid rate. This interdisciplinary field is practically used in every aspect of modern life as exemplified by the advances in computers and communications. The course will bring learners in contact with the modern technologies and gives an in-depth mix of knowledge and skills. A career in engineering is a career that is in high demand, interesting and versatile. Lectures include both a theoric and hands-on approach.
This course is recognised by the Board tal-Inġiniera as a prerequisite for the application of the Engineering Warrant (Inġ.) as established by ACT No. XLVIII of 2021.
