Electrical Engineering University of Cyprus

Overview

In this problem solving process, technological constraints and constraints inherent to the problem at hand, both in terms of hardware and software, are taken into account. Furthermore, the program aims to introduce students to the cutting-edge research and innovation currently taking place in the various areas of Electrical Engineering .

The Electrical Engineering program from the  University of Cyprus  emphasizes mastery in the field of interest of each student as well as advanced knowledge of other subjects in related areas. It is tailored to meet the needs of each student with some certain general restrictions set by the Department. The course offerings provide the student with an opportunity to deepen his or her knowledge in a specific area of electrical engineering, as well as broaden his or her knowledge by also taking courses in a number of other areas of electrical engineering.

Occupational Profiles of Graduates with Examples

Despite the fact that the Cypriot market is at an embryonic stage in creating such jobs (according to the same Eurostat survey, the corresponding high-tech jobs in Cyprus fluctuated to around 1% in 2016), the combination of the high expenditure of the Cypriot government in the field of Education, Research and Development combined with the rising employment rate of recent graduates (see Figure 1), is expected to provide a big push to Cyprus's effort to create a knowledge-based society. The ECE Department at UCY, is therefore expected to play a leading role in this transition. In particular, according to the Human Resource Development Authority (HRDA) of Cyprus, the forecast for Cyprus is that the number of total jobs per sector related to the broader field of Electrical Engineering is capable of absorbing the expected annual number of graduates of the ECE department.
