Electronics

The undergraduate professional study programme of Electronics is organized modularly and lasts six (6) semesters for full-time and eight (8) semesters for part-time students, with an equal number of teaching hours. Upon completion of the professional studies, students acquire 180 ECTS and are awarded a professional title of Professional Bachelor in Electronics.

The first two semesters comprise basic lessons within the specified curriculum and syllabus   - Electrical Engineering (60 ECTS) and are delivered jointly with the study programme of Power Engineering. The central module of the study programme - Electronics (60 ECTS) spans the third and fourth semesters. The third semester is unique for all Electronics students, whereas in the fourth semester a part of the syllabus is subdivided into selected elective groups. Practical lessons totalling 60 ECTS are held in the fifth and sixth semesters.

Students who, according to their personal preferences, have opted for modules by signing up for the relevant elective groups (professional modules) enrol in the following modules: Telecommunications (TEL-1, TEL-2), Applied Electronics (PREL-1, PREL-2) and Mechatronics (MEH- 1, MEH-2).

According to the so far obtained statistical data and depending on the selected professional modules, students are provided with good employment prospects in: public and private telecommunications companies (mobile and fixed telephony), industrial plants within the shipbuilding, cement, chemical and metal industries, the power supply and distribution system (HEP facilities and plants), hospitals, construction companies and the like.

Students who complete this professional study can enrol in the Specialist Professional Graduate Study of Electrical Engineering (120 ECTS) at the University Department of Professional Studies in order to acquire a title of Professional Specialist in Electrical Engineering. The curriculum and syllabus design of the Electronics study programme was based on the documents of the associated agencies of the European Commission focused on the harmonization of European higher education structure, particularly the one referring to the scientific branch of Electrical Engineering and accompanying reference documents related to training of engineering profiles.
