The ultimate objective of the Department of Electrical Engineering is to train senior engineers equipped with the necessary expertise in electrical engineering. Electricity, which gives life to all industrial equipment and machinery, will become increasingly more important in the future, with its applications become more diverse as science and civilization continue to develop.
Electrical engineering is like the heart supplying blood to not only the information technology (IT) industry but also all industries that require electric power, and it is the most fundamental and essential field of engineering for the happiness of humanity. The department provides comprehensive education in basic studies and industrial technology in laboratories. Students learn and master the operation and control technology of traditional power systems and the application technology of power facilities and electric power, so that they can turn into highly qualified leaders in the areas of electric vehicles, maglev trains, power IT, next- generation energy, intelligent building management systems, subway and high-speed train operation, and other industries utilizing digitalized electrical engineering technology that have been attracting attention in recent years.
Students will gain an understanding of the overall theories related to electricity and acquire the practical skills necessary to work in related fields.
Students will develop the ability to install, operate, maintain, and repair electrical systems by developing application skills based on basic principles and theories, and the ability to collect, analyze, and apply new technology information. The modern era is called the age of electricity, with electricity widely used in daily life and across industries. The primary educational goal of the Department of Electrical Engineering is to produce electrical engineering experts required by society through lectures and labs, visits to industrial sites, and field trips. To this end, lower-level students focus on basic subjects in the electrical field such as circuits, electromagnetism, electronics, electrical and electronic instrumentation, electronic circuits, engineering mathematics, digital engineering, basic electrical experiments, electronics experiments, and electrical properties experiments for a thorough comprehension of general concepts related to electricity. They will also learn ways to perform basic and systematic analyses of electrical phenomena and in electricity-related fields.
Meanwhile, mid- and upper-level students learn theoretical knowledge and conduct experiments in the fields of electrical engineering, including power system engineering, power transmission engineering, DC motor, AC motor, automatic control, and control system analysis. They also take various courses in the field of weak communications engineering such as microprocessors, semiconductor engineering, circuit analysis, lighting engineering, and power electronic engineering.
In addition, as an advanced program in the field of electricity, students will acquire practical electrical design and control skills in the field of electric power application, electric motor control, digital control, electrical equipment design, sequence control, process control, power electronics experiments, and electrical application experiments. They will also acquire field-oriented knowledge and skills through field trips to industrial companies and field exercises. The program aims to foster electrical engineers required by a highly industrialized society with expertise in the fields of electricity, electronics, and control instrumentation, as well as adaptability and the ability to apply their knowledge to solve real-life problems.
