These programs provide students with knowledge and skills in:
- scientific foundations, principles and procedures underlying the design of electronic circuits and systems;
- use of computers in designing and testing such systems;
- application of this knowledge to areas such as communications, control systems, digital circuits and systems, and computer hardware and software; and
- professional engineering responsibilities including project management and engineering ethics.
As an electronic and computer engineering student, you should be aware that in addition to discipline-related content and skills, you are acquiring other skills that are highly valued by employers. These skills, known at Griffith as generic or professional skills are sometimes referred to as transferable, as they can be transferred from one environment to another (learning to the workplace, part-time to professional work).
