Department of Electrical Engineering
The Department of Electrical Engineering was established in 2017 as part of the Ziauddin University Faculty of Engineering, Science, Technology, and Management (ZUFESTM) situated at North Nazimabad Campus in Karachi. The department aims to cultivate skilled scientists, engineers, and technologists capable of meeting market demands through research and development. A highly qualified faculty with extensive industrial and academic experience in their respective fields of expertise is a notable feature. Furthermore, our state-of-the-art laboratories cater to both undergraduate and postgraduate studies, as well as research activities
To impart quality education in electrical engineering and produce graduates that conduct research, develop technologies and contribute to the national and international scientific and socioeconomic growth.
The electrical engineering department currently offers a comprehensive range of academic programs at the North Nazimabad Campus in Karachi, consisting of three undergraduate and two postgraduate offerings, all of which have received approval from the Higher Education Commission (HEC).
The department’s undergraduate curriculum encompasses the BE in Electrical Engineering and the BS in Internet of Things (IoT), both scheduled for morning sessions, while the BS in Electrical Engineering Technology is available for evening sessions. These undergraduate programs typically span four years, equivalent to eight semesters. It is noteworthy that the Engineering program is accredited by the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC), and the Technology program has gained accreditation from the National Technology Council (NTC).
For postgraduate pursuits, the department offers the MS in Electrical Engineering, a program lasting around one and a half years, equivalent to three semesters. This program offers participants the option to choose between a coursework track (involving ten courses) or a combination of coursework (eight courses) along with a thesis. The program delves into various specialized areas, including Control and Automation, Computer and Communication Networks, and Telecommunication Systems.
Likewise, the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering is a comprehensive endeavor spanning four years, equivalent to eight semesters, and comprises coursework as well as a dissertation. This program facilitates specialization in three distinct areas: Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, and Telecommunication Engineering.
