UBT’s English Language Academy’s four level intensive English language course is an integrated-skills and content-based program that develops students’ proficiency in English. The entire course is delivered in four modules. Each module spans eight academic weeks at a rate of 25 hours per week.

The program utilizes Cengage’s LIFE American edition series’ textbooks which adopt a communicative approach emphasizing language learning in real life contexts, and the production of language in a broad range of speaking and writing situations – thereby mirroring the functional descriptors of the CEFR.

Levels	Textbook	CEFR	Course Duration	Hours per week
Level 1	Cengage Life 1	A1	8 weeks	25
Level 2	Cengage Life 2	A2	8 weeks	25
Level 3	Cengage Life 3	B1	8 weeks	25
Level 4	Cengage Life 4	B1+	8 weeks	25

Upon admission to UBT, students sit the online Oxford Placement Test (OPT) to ensure placement in their proper level. Accurate placement of students is essential for success in their English studies.

The entire four session program takes students from the Beginner Level (A1) up to the Upper Intermediate (B2). ELA ensures that these are reliable and accurate language proficiency standards by correlating ELA levels to internationally accepted proficiency benchmarks.

Communicative reading Strategies for students:

Pre-reading:
Pre-reading tasks are adopted to activate students’ schematic knowledge of what they are about to read (based on their pre-existing knowledge) as this knowledge will help them understand the text. When reading, students are using their pre-existing knowledge to predict content. In class, predictions are communicated to partners.

During Reading:
Reading is done in pairs or collaboratively to promote greater interactions among students.

Post-reading:
Students tell each other about what they have read and engage in:

Discussions about the text,
Summarizing the text,
Reviewing the text,
Perform role-play or a follow-up speaking task related to the topic.

Active Communication (speaking):
Students are encouraged to:

Promote more efficient interaction between students in the communication process.
Ensure that each student has the opportunity to express his/her ideas or viewpoints.
Engage those who are in the group.
Express their thoughts, feelings, or issues while actively listening to others to allow a better understanding of different points of view.

The aim for most students is fluency. ELA develops fluency through pair work and group work speaking activities by providing interesting discussion topics that offer students something to talk about.

Communicative Writing:
Writing, like all other aspects of language, is communicative. ELA Students are required to write e-mails, SMS messages, lists, notes, cover letters, reports, proposals, memos, assignments, essays, etc. Students engage in doing research projects, publishing blogs, and creating individual and group profiles.

ELA Student education goes beyond the coursework. Extracurricular activities form a vital part of ELA students’ experience - creating unique opportunities for friendship and learning. Students can engage and participate in an array of activities on campus that include:

ELA Students Recreational Hall (Dahban):
ELA has an in-house Recreational Hall available to students all day long. Sports include billiards, table tennis, PS4, Football and more.

Optical absorption enhancement for

A-SI:H Solar Cells using Plasmonic Nanoparticles

Solar energy is the most favored renewable energy that can be harvested and converted to usable electrical energy using solar cells with a drawback of limited efficiency. The light harvesting and power conversion efficiency can be boosted utilizing nanostructured materials, including nanowires, quantum dots, plasmonic materials, and Nano antennas. In this work, we propose a new structure for an excitonic solar cell with improved light harvesting and power conversion efficiency using plasmonic nanoparticles distributed on the top surface of a conical shaped solar cell. Different metals will be used as plasmonic nanoparticles such as gold, copper, silver and vanadium dioxide. Hydrogenated amorphous silicon solar cells which have very strong absorbers using n-type, intrinsic, and p-type layers will by used. Therefore only a very thin film is required to capture most of the incident light. These light absorbing molecules can also be deposited with solution processable techniques. This means that large area devices can be manufactured using simple and cheap manufacturing processes. Hence, these solar cells are relatively cheap to produce; and can be prepared as flexible devices. The flexible and lightweight nature of these cells means they are more portable than traditional solar cells and can be incorporated more easily into consumer goods, such as backpacks. Another advantage of the strong absorption properties of these types of solar cells is they perform well under low or diffuse light conditions and so can be used indoors. On the other hand, conical shape of PIN is used to enhance the light trapping by multiple reflections of incident light. The optimum shape, size and position of plasmonic materials and optimum shape and height of the PIN conical shape will be determined using a finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulation tool. According to the parametric study, we will fabricate a prototype for a solar cell that can be industrialized. Electrical and optical properties of the proposed model will be determined and verified with the ones obtained by the parametric study as well.

Hussein Reda	Assessment of quality cost in Saudi Arabia manufacturing industry	Quality costs are those resulting from producing, identifying, repairing, and avoiding defective products. It consists of the following four categories: 1) Internal failure costs are incurred prior to the products delivery to the customer. They include costs of scrap, rework, retest, downtime, yield losses or disposition. 2) External failure costs occur after the products are delivered to the customer. They include categories such as complaint adjustment, returned products, warranty charges, and liability or allowances concessions. 3) Appraisal costs result from measuring, evaluating, and auditing material and products to determine their conformance to specifications. They include costs of inspection and testing of incoming materials, through production, testing, and equipment calibration. 4) Preventive costs are associated with activities aimed at reducing appraisal and failure costs. They include costs of quality planning and design, new products review, process control, training, quality data analysis and reporting, and improvement projects. A survey of several manufacturing industries in Saudi Arabia will be conducted. The survey includes a cross representation of manufacturing activities existing in the region. They include construction material, light metal fabrication, plastics and glass products, and assembly of various electric & mechanical products and home appliances. The survey is intended to assess the level of awareness and quantitative estimates of quality costs as related to the above four categories. The survey design and findings will be presented along with analysis. Specific conclusions will be drawn regarding quality costs studies and reduction/improvements programs as related to the surveyed industry categories.
Seoud Abouamer	Piezoelectric for lighting highways	Sound is a regular mechanical vibration that travels through matter as a waveform. Longitudinal sound waves – compression waves – transmitted through the ambient air are made up of waves of alternating pressure deviations from the equilibrium pressure, causing local regions of compression and rarefaction. In This work, different intensity of the input sound was used. Compared with other mechanical energy sources, it is very difficult to use mechanical energy from sound in order to generate electrical energy using a conventional PZT-based bulk or thin film piezoelectric energy harvester." To overcome this difficulty, the team worked with zinc oxide nanowires, a piezoelectric nanomaterial that leads to a much more sensitively response
Samer Bali	Novel design and implementation of Chip-less tag using radio frequency identification (RFID) system	Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) wireless technology is becoming the most popular and important instrument that is used in many applications such as logistic chains, tracking and localization items. RFID has the capability to read the items without needing line of sight. In addition, RFID is used for applications that require relatively long reading distance compared to the traditional barcode system. The main obstacle of the RFID system is the cost of an active tag unit as well as a passive tag unit with chip, and this still prevents RFID from being a widely used identification system. Chip-less tag is one solution to effectively reduce the cost of the tag. However, this solution imposes new challenges in RFID systems. One of the main classical challenges is the development of anti-collision methodologies in order to identify multiple tags simultaneously. The anti-collision protocols that are frequently used in traditional active and passive RFID tags with chips are not suitable for chip-less tags, since chip-less tags do not have any on board controlling element (chip) or circuit. Therefore, new anti-collision protocols should be developed for chip-less tags. In this project we will design a microstrip printed antenna using an Ink-Jet printer in our lab at the University of Business and Technology. In this research project, it is intended to design and develop new chip-less tags that should be extremely cheap. The new tags will need the development of new protocols for reading multiple tags simultaneously. As a result, this will open the way for building an initial prototype of an enhanced passive RFID system.

Modeling and Implementation of Grid Connected Hybrid Wind/Spv System and Application for Saudi Site

The shortage of fuel resources worldwide has required urgent search for alternative energy sources to meet up present day demands. Solar and wind energy sources is a clean, unfailing and environment-friendly potential resource among all renewable energy options. At present, there is a need for continuous supply of energy, which cannot be satisfied - due to seasonal and periodic variations – solely by a wind energy system or solar photovoltaic system.

Hybrid PV/battery bank/utility grid system (PV/BB/UG) is considered as a basic solution for any shortage of fuel resources worldwide. The overall cost of such hybrid system is the main issue that should be studied deeply before installation of the system. This research introduces a complete study of the performance of a hybrid PV/BB/UG system. The cost of kilo Watt of each individual source has been calculated and the kWh cost of the overall PV/BB/UG İs calculated as well taking into consideration the installation and running cost. The introduced system is simulating on a real load of a building at the University of Business and Technology located in Dahban, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Finally, we used our study in lighting some labs in the same engineering building.

It is generally agreed that using local information such as generated power from PV array and state of battery change are calculated using computer program under known insolation and load demand. The optimal power management is carried out using the designed program which has been tried and tested using actual data – under different operational conditions. Matlab-Simulink is used for carrying out a simulation using daily data of the load demand, insolation and temperature of Jeddah site, KSA. The results obtained show the beneficially of the hybrid integrated system

Simulating Ultra-Sensitive Gas Sensors Using Plasmonic Nanostructures

Gas sensors are important for a myriad of applications including petroleum production, automotive industry, agriculture, and environmental studies. Excellent gas sensors should be ultra-sensitive, selective, cheap, simple, energy efficient, feasible, fast in response, and can be used for a wide range of applications. Furthermore, the general architecture of the sensor should remain constant even if sensing materials or detected gases are changed.

Unfortunately, the reported techniques in the literature partially have the characteristics of ideal gas sensors. As a result, we propose to use the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method to simulate gas sensor designed by using plasmonic gold nanoparticles and gas sensitive polymeric materials. We plan to monitor only one physical quantity that will be changed in all chemical reactions between sensitive polymers and gases. Therefore, the basic structure of our proposed sensor will be fixed and only the sensitive polymeric materials can be changed. In addition, the proposed method will have the same advantages of traditional polymeric gas sensors but with extra sensitivity improvement. Also, the proposed sensor can be simulated above flat surfaces or optical fibers which widen its applications area.

A framework to evaluate the state of food retail supply chain in Saudi Arabia

Supply Chain Management has been playing a key role in food retail business in developed countries by providing various segments of customers with quality products in a highly efficient manner. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) is following the lead of developed countries, with rapid growth trend in super and hypermarkets. However, the role of supply chain management and its impact on meeting customer needs are not well understood because of lack of readily available data. There is need to develop an appropriate framework for the KSA food retail sector to study the impacts of the various elements of the supply chain. This paper describes a framework that researchers can utilize to study the supply chain impacts on the food retail sector.

Fabrication Of A Microelectrode Array, First Generation, Glucose Biosensor- PHASE I

The worldwide market for bio and chemical sensors is large, being valued at $13 billion in 2011, and growing quickly with a projected compound annual growth rate of 9.6% between 2011 and 2016. Many of these sensors are amperometric, where the concentration of a chemical analytic (e.g., free available chlorine, ozone, glucose) is determined by measuring the diffusion limited current at an electrode.
The electrodes used in the majority of these sensors are macro electrodes. Macro-electrodes are electrodes where the smallest electrode dimension is > 50 micrometers. The response of such electrodes depends greatly on the mass transport conditions in the analytic solution. The response at microelectrodes where the smallest electrode dimension is less than 50 micrometers, and is independent of mass transport. However, the current generated at such electrodes is very small and is difficult to measure. This problem can be overcome by measuring the aggregate current generated at an array of microelectrodes.

Fabricating such microelectrode arrays in a cheap and efficient manner is a technological challenge that has not been fully solved (please see Literature Review), as demonstrated by the low usage of these electrodes in commercial amperometric sensors. The researchers will build on work completed in the University of Limerick to first construct a microelectrode array, first generation, glucose biosensor and then similar sensors for other analytics.

Preparation of Hybrid Composite Materials And Their Microwave Properties Applied on The Telecommunication Towers In Jeddah – Proof of Concept

The extensive development of telecommunication systems and electronic devices has raised the electromagnetic pollution to a level never attained before. This has led to environmental questions, health concerns and a wide variety of applications. This justifies an active quest for novel and effective electromagnetic material creation that could provide solutions for the microwave behavior. Thus, materials with high efficiency to diminish electromagnetic interferences pollution have become a mainstream field of research.

The present project will focus on the preparation, fabrication and development of hybrid composite materials to reduce the electromagnetic pollution that is produced by the telecommunication towers in Jeddah. These materials are expected to act as a barrier, absorber, or reflector of the electromagnetic radiation. Protection of humans and other biological objects from the harmful action of the electromagnetic waves will therefore be achieved. These materials are expected to be implemented in different applications – i.e. antenna techniques and production, military applications, and improving the electromagnetic compatibility between different electronic devices.

Design of a Data Warehouse Model for Decision Support in Higher Education: A Case study at the University of Business & Technology (UBT)

The goal of this study is to design a Data Warehouse (D W) dimensional model at the University of Business and Technology (UBT). UBT is striving to be a world-class university. For this purpose several Information Systems (IS) were developed such as
OPERA. Unfortunately, these systems are transactional systems that support day-to-day decision-making. However, these systems have failed to support strategic decisions. Hence, a DW design at UBT is essential to stay competitive in a rapidly changing world. OPERA system is the most critical IS at UBT since it contains undergraduate students’ information. In this study, a dimensional model will be designed for student academic examination data and human resources data. A prototype will be developed and evaluated based on the proposed model. The proposed model will help decision makers at UBT to make better strategic decisions in terms of academics and human resources perspective.

Flame spray Drying Synthesis of Calcium Phosphate Nanoparticles

The investigators propose to study the synthesis of calcium phosphate nanoparticles using the flame spray pyrolysis technique. Calcium phosphate salts are important biomaterials and flame spray pyrolysis is a fundamentally important technique extensively used in industry for the formation of metal oxide
nanoparticles. Studies have previously been performed on the flame spray synthesis of calcium phosphate salts but such studies have not been systematic and have not considered in detail the treatment of the precursor solutions and the effect that such treatments have on the calcium phosphate phases produced.
It is the purpose of this study to comprehensively characterize the flame spray system with a view to synthesizing calcium phosphate particles of controlled particle size and phase (e.g. hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, intimately mixed compositions of both phases) in a manner that is readily amenable to scaling so that a clear path to commercialization of the technology is outlined.

It is also a goal of this research to develop expertise in flame spray technologies to enable the researchers to develop further projects where nanoparticles of other compositions will be synthesized.

Empirical Asset Pricing Saudi Stylized Facts and Evidence

I estimate proxy specifications of (Fama and French, 2014) five-factor model to produce stylized facts of the Saudi capital market and test an APT model. The data set is the panel of all publicly traded firms, excluding financial and negative book value of equity firms. My contribution to the extant literature is three-fold: [1] organizing Saudi market data based on beta and firm-specific fundamentals, namely, growth, size, accounting earnings, and equity investments, [2] conducting a parsimony analysis within the theoretical framework of Merton's (1973) APT, and [3] quantifying the information risk facing marginal investor by decomposing earnings into cash flows and accruals; and investigating respective loadings in an unrestricted version of the parsimonious specification. Proxy asset pricing specifications, though intuitively appealing, are scant due to lack of theoretical frameworks and misguided significance tests of factor loadings. Throughout, I address this issue in detail and keep the empirical analysis under describing market facts and testing an APT model.

Ever since children have been getting hurt by drawers either by closing them on their fingers or while reaching for dangerous objects inside of them, such as chemical detergents or sharp objects. For adults, it is obvious that when closing a drawer, they should push it inside with keeping their fingers away from the edges. But with children aged from 8 months to 36 months it’s not that clear for them. They can exert an enough amount of force that can cause severe pain if it is closed on their little fingers.

WMNs have been broadly accepted in the conventional application sectors of ad hoc networks because of their advantages over other wireless networks. Traffic routing has a critical role in determining the performance of wireless mesh networks. Routing protocol design for wireless mesh networks is Critical to maintaining the performance and reliability of wireless mesh networks. Thus a routing protocol or an algorithm for WMNs should be carefully designed taking into account the specific characteristics of that network.

2017/2018	Ms. Noha Obaid	Drawer’s Safe-closing Tool		Drawers have been used since the forties but it never witnessed significant improvements. Ever since children have been getting hurt by drawers either by closing them on their fingers or while reaching for dangerous objects inside of them, such as chemical detergents or sharp objects. For adults, it is obvious that when closing a drawer, they should push it inside with keeping their fingers away from the edges. But with children aged from 8 months to 36 months it’s not that clear for them. They can exert an enough amount of force that can cause severe pain if it is closed on their little fingers. So it is our sincere duty to come up with innovative yet simple ideas to secure our children away from harmful incidents. I have made two tools that can solve these types of problems, the first is to minimize the pressure on fingers if the fingers were inside while the closing process and the second tool is to completely lock the drawer.

UBT’s Governance Structure complements its Academic Structure and has been through several evolutionary stages and is still subject to change. This is natural for a growing University, however, it should be emphasized that UBT’s strategy is neither to be a duplicate of a public university, nor does it intend continuous growth. The capacity that UBT decided upon is to stay as a private small to medium size university of 5 to 6 thousand students. The existing organizational structure (Click here) is depicted in the following chart whereby it can be seen that the Rector (CEO) is in charge of all academic, as well as administrative functions of the University. Along with the help of the Deputy Rector, Vice Rector for Academic Affairs (VRAA) and Vice Rector of Quality and Development (VRQD), they run the university operations.

The Rector, Deputy Rector, VR's and Deans implement strategies, policies, procedures and by-laws mandated by the BOT and UC. The Decision Making (DM) process actually flows from the bottom upwards starting at the Departmental Level (Department Council), College Level (College Council) and University Level (University Council).

The University of Business & Technology is proud of its Engineering students and graduates, and enables them to acquire the best job positions in the field by providing a high standard quality education – with hands-on training.

The activities of industrial engineering generally fall into the following categories:

Those related to facility layout.
Those related to increasing productivity.
Those related to controlling the quality of products.
Those related to reducing and controlling costs.
Those related to organizing and coordinating different operations in the workplace.

Plant layout involves determining the floor space needed for each production component – workers, equipment, and material handling and storage – and arranging and sequencing the various operations to insure a safe, smooth and efficient operation.

Industrial engineers perform time and motion studies of workers, set standards of work performance, and propose new and improved work methods to increase productivity. They employ quality control techniques to reduce waste and customer complaints, as well as use statistical procedures to establish reasonable tolerances in quality and develop procedures for making routine checks of product quality.

In all of their work, industrial engineers must carefully monitor costs of production and seek ways to reduce costs without compromising product quality.

Industrial engineers determine the most effective ways of using the basic factors of production -- people, machines, materials, information, and energy -- to make a product or to provide a service. They are the bridge between management goals and operational performance. They are more concerned with increasing productivity through the management of people, methods of business organization, and technology. Although most industrial engineers work in manufacturing industries, they may also work in consulting services, healthcare, and communications.

To solve organizational, production, and such related problems most efficiently, industrial engineers carefully study the product and its requirements; use mathematical methods such as optimization techniques to meet these requirements; and design manufacturing and information systems. They develop management control systems to aid in financial planning and cost analysis and design production planning and control systems to coordinate activities and ensure product quality.

They also design or improve systems for the physical distribution of goods and services. Industrial engineers determine which plant location has the best combination of raw materials availability, transportation facilities, and costs. Industrial engineers use computers for simulations, and to control various activities and devices such as assembly lines and robots. They also develop wage and salary administration systems and job evaluation programs.

Many industrial engineers move up into management positions because that is the main scope of the courses they had studied. The work of health and safety engineers is similar to that of industrial engineers in that it deals with the entire production process. Health and safety engineers promote worksite or product safety and health by applying knowledge of industrial processes, as well as mechanical, chemical, and psychological principles. They must be able to anticipate, recognize, and evaluate hazardous conditions, as well as develop hazard control methods. They also must be familiar with the application of health and safety regulations.

Job opportunities for industrial engineers include, but are not limited to:

Manufacturing.
Oil industry.
Healthcare.
Airlines.
Railroads.
Ports.
Retail businesses; and municipal.
State, and federal government agencies.

Furthermore, in 2012 CBA obtained a University Status and was officially announced by the Higher Council of the Saudi Higher Education as the University of Business and Technology (UBT). The growth journey has continued as UBT with most recently in 2018, the MOE approving offering five new master’s degree programs within the College of Business Administration.

Right from its inception, UBT has focused on providing students with a unique learning experience that is built on solid core values. In particular, UBT prides itself with its high levels of graduates’ employability, and a strong reputation from employers. Today the UBT serves over 5000 students through its four established Colleges, and offers eighteen undergraduate programs and seven masters’ programs; in addition to its Executive Education Center (EEC) and the English Language Academy (ELA). The EEC provides practitioners and executives with professional certifications and qualifications with the highest international standards and recognition.

The University has currently two campuses; its main male campus in Dahban located around 40 km north of Jeddah City; where all Colleges have a presence, in addition to the different Supporting Deanships, ELA, student dorms, sports and recreation facilities, the bookstore, restaurants and coffee shops, and the Grand Mosque. The Female campus, known as Jeddah Campus, is located in Jeddah City and includes the Colleges: CBA, CE, CL, and JCA, Deanships, ELA, sports and recreation facilities, and a bookstore.

Another important breakthrough for an emerging institution was the establishment of a Teaching and Learning Centre (TLC) in 2012 to support the ongoing quality of teaching; later renamed to the ‘Faculty Development Centre’, which mainly focuses on providing internal and external development opportunities for Faculty Members. Through different agreements and memberships such as the Higher Education Academy in the UK, training opportunities were provided to 69% of UBT’s teaching staff. Moreover, in 2018, about 94% of UBT faculty got training in different subjects concerning teaching & learning.

Curriculum development in association with:

Higher Education Academy - UK (CBA)
University of Connecticut USA (CE)
Western Michigan University – USA (CBA)
Buckinghamshire New University (JCA)

As the University has matured, it has increased its research activities and introduced graduate programs as part of its aspiration to shift from being a teaching university to becoming a comprehensive university focusing on teaching, research and community engagement. Most recently UBT has committed to leveraging applied research and to provide an environment that encourages both students and faculty members to become researchers. As such, it has set in 2013, the Research and Consultation Centre which was in 2017 converted into the Deanships of Scientific Research. UBT continues to grow its links with the local community as well as with international partners to fulfill its mission statement and achieve its strategic goals.

Taking into consideration the importance of Quality and Development as a strategic priority for UBT, in 2018, the Quality and Development Division within the Vice Rectorship for Quality and Development became a Deanship.

UBT has also keen interest on positioning itself both regionally and internationally and as such has throughout the years become a member of several well reputable organizations. UBT is today a member of:

The Association of Arab Universities (AARU)
The International Association of Universities (IAU)
The IREG (Observatory on Academic Ranking and Excellence)
PRME (Principles of Responsible Management Education) – UN - Global Compact - Initiative
AACSB, EFMD and AMBA
The Saudi Arabia Solar industry Association (SASIA)

الهندسة الكهربائية هي أحد فروع الهندسة الذي يتعامل مع دراسة وتطبيق أساسيات ومفاهيم الإلكترونيات والكهرباء والموجات الكهرومغناطيسية. بداية الهندسة الكهربائية كمهنة معروفة كانت في نهاية القرن التاسع عشر بعد اختراع الهاتف والتلغراف الكهربائي وانتاج الطاقة الكهربائية وتوسع استخداماتها. ثم تطورت بعد ذلك وتوسعت إلى أن وصلت في وقتنا الحالي حيث أصبح هناك مجموعة متنوعة من التخصصات الدقيقة مثل هندسة الكمبيوتر، وهندسة الإلكترونيات، وهندسة الطاقة، والهندسة الطبية الحيوية، ومعالجة الإشارات، والاتصالات السلكية واللاسلكية، وهندسة الترددات اللاسلكية.

تشتمل الهندسة الكهربائية على مسار الهندسة الإلكترونية فبينما تتعامل الهندسة الكهربائية مع التطبيقات المرتبطة بأنظمة الطاقة الكهربائية، والآلات الكهربائية، فإن هندسة الالكترونيات تهتم بدراسة الأنظمة الإلكترونية بما في ذلك الحواسيب الرقمية والإلكترونيات الضوئية والدوائر المتكاملة وأنظمة الاتصالات والرادار.

بعبارة أخرى، تركز الهندسة الكهربائية عادةً على استخدام الكهرباء لنقل البيانات الكهربائية أو الطاقة الكهربائية، بينما تستخدم الهندسة الإلكترونية الكهرباء لمعالجة المعلومات. كلا التخصصين متداخله، على سبيل المثال، بسبب الاستخدام المتزايد للإلكترونيات الطاقة أصبحت دراسة سلوك الشبكات الكهربائية المعقدة تتم باستخدام الإلكترونيات وأجهزة الكمبيوتر.

هندسة الكمبيوتر هي فرع يجمع بين العديد من مجالات الهندسة الكهربائية وعلوم الكمبيوتر المطلوبة لتعزيز برامج الكمبيوتر والأجهزة. من الضروري أن يكون لدى مهندسي الكمبيوتر خبرة في الهندسة الإلكترونية والدوائر الكهربائية ومهارات البرمجيات وتكامل برمجيات الأجهزة بدلاً من الاكتفاء بتخصص هندسة البرمجيات أو الإلكترونيات فقط. إن هندسة الكمبيوتر مطلب أساسي في كل ما يتعلق بجوانب البرمجيات وأجهزة الكمبيوتر، بدءًا من تصميم المعالجات الدقيقة والحواسيب الصغيرة والحواسيب الشخصية والحواسيب الفائقة إلى تصميم الدوائر الإلكترونية البسيط. هذا المجال من الهندسة لا يركز فقط على كيفية عمل أجهزة الكمبيوتر نفسها، ولكن أيضا كيفية دمجها في انظمه متطورة ومتكاملة.

في العديد من الجامعات، يُسمح لطلاب هندسة الكمبيوتر باختيار بعض المواد المتعمقه في سنتهم الأولى والعليا، لأن الإلمام الكامل بتصنيع أجهزة الكمبيوتر وتطبيقها هدف يصعب الوصول إليه خلال مرحلة البكالوريوس. بعض الجامعات الأخرى تتطلب إنهاء سنة واحدة من الهندسة العامة قبل اختيار هندسة الكمبيوتر كتخصص دقيق.

لقد كانت الكهرباء موضوعًا هاما للبحث منذ أوائل القرن السابع عشر. كان أول مهندس كهربائي هو وليام جيلبرت الذي اخترع الفيرتيوم: جهاز استشعر وجود شحنات كهربائية ساكنه في الاجسام. كما كان أول من رسم فارقاً واضحاً بين الكهرباء الساكنة والمغناطيسية، ويعود له الفضل في إنشاء كلمة الكهرباء. في عام 1775، صممت التجارب العلمية التي قام بها أليساندرو فولتا، الالكتروفور، وهو الجهاز الذي أنتج شحنة كهربائية ساكنه، وفي 1800 فولتا طور الكومة الفولتية، وهو رائد للبطارية الكهربائية

مايكل فاراداي هو اول من أسس تكنولوجيا المحركات الكهربائية
اختراع أشباه الموصلات في أواخر عام 1947 من قبل ويليام شوكلي فتح الباب أمام المزيد من الأجهزة الالكترونية الدقيقه التي تعود إلى تطوير الدائرة الكهربائية المتكاملة، وفي عام 1958 من قبل العالمين جاك كيلبي. وفي 1959 بشكل مستقل من قبل روبرت نويس. بالإضافة الى ذلك في عام 1968 أيضا تيد هوف وآخرون قاموا بإنجاز وهو اختراع أول معالج دقيق في شركة إنتل والذي كان هو أساس الحاسوب رباعي النواة اللذي إنتاجه في عام 1971 , ولكن في عام 1973 تم تطوير معالج ثماني بت ومن ثم تصنيع أول حاسوب بالعام.

في عام 1972، تم تأسيس أول درجة في هندسة الكمبيوتر في الولايات المتحدة في جامعة كيس ويسترن ريزيرف.

في عام 2004 , كان هنالك 170 برنامج هندسة كمبيوتر معتمدة في الولايات الامريكية المتحدة , و نظرًا للنمو في متطلبات الوظائف للمهندسين الذين يمكنهم في الوقت نفسه تطوير الأجهزة والبرامج والبرامج الثابتة وإدارة جميع أشكال أنظمة الكمبيوتر المستخدمة في الصناعة الى تقدم بعض مدارس التعليم العالي في جميع أنحاء العالم درجة البكالوريوس التي تدعى عمومًا هندسة الكمبيوتر. يتضمن كل من برامج هندسة الكمبيوتر الإلكترونية تصميم الدوائر التناظرية والرقمية في مناهجها الدراسية كما هو الحال في معظم التخصصات الهندسية، فإن وجود خلفية جيدة حول الرياضيات والعلوم أمر ضروري لمهندسي الكمبيوتر.

. تطبيقات وممارسة الهندسة الكهربائية وهندسة الحاسبات في معظم البلدان تقريبًا، تكون درجة البكالوريوس في الهندسة هي الخطوة الأولى نحو الحصول على شهادة مهنية ويتم اعتماد برنامج الشهادة نفسه من قبل مؤسسة مهنية، وحيث أنه بعد إنهاء برنامج الشهادة الهندسية يجب أن يستوفي المهندس بعض المتطلبات مثل متطلبات الخبرة في العمل قبل اعتماده. بمجرد حصوله على الشهادة، يحصل المهندس على لقب مهندس محترف في الولايات المتحدة وكندا وجنوب إفريقيا وعلى هذا الاساس يصنف على أنه مهندس مستأجر، أما في باكستان والهند وايرلندا والمملكة المتحدة وزيمبابوي فهو ومهندس محترف مستأجر.

المنظمات المهنيه لمهندسي الكهرباء والالكترونيات مثل معهد مهندسي الكهرباء والإلكترونيات الأمريكي ) و كذلك مؤسسة الهندسة والتكنولوجيا الأوربية. IEEE) في الولايات المتحدة وكندا وأستراليا المهندسون الكهربائيون يشكلون حوالي 0.25٪ من القوى العاملة. أما خارج أمريكا الشمالية وأوروبا، فإن خريجي الهندسة الكهربائية على الأرجح هم الأكثر عددا في تايوان واليابان وكوريا الجنوبية. المستوى التعليمي يؤثر على الراتب: متوسط الراتب الابتدائي للخريجين مع درجة الماجستير هو 71،455 دولار ، وبالنسبة للتخرج الحاصل على درجة الدكتوراة هو 88،893 دولار. أما في المملكة العربية السعودية يبلغ متوسط الراتب المبدئي لحامل الهندسة الكهربائية حوالي 140000 ريال سعودي.

In nearly most countries, a Bachelor's degree in engineering is the first step towards professional certification and the degree program itself is certified by a professional organization. After finishing a certified engineering degree program, the engineer should satisfy some requirements such as, work experience requirements before being certified. Once certified, the engineer gets the title of professional engineer in the US, Canada, and South Africa; chartered engineer, in Pakistan, India, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and Zimbabwe; chartered professional engineer, in New Zealand and Australia, or European engineer, in much of the European Union.

The advantages of certification change depending upon different countries. For instance, in the United States and Canada, only certified engineers may practice engineering work in public and private companies. This requirement is stipulated by state and provincial legislation. In other countries, no such legislation exists. Practically all certifying bodies have a code of ethics that they expect all engineers to abide by, or risk expulsion. Such organizations play a critical role in maintaining ethical standards for the profession. Even in jurisdictions where certification has little or no legal bearing on work, engineers are subject to contract law.

There are several professional organizations worthy of mention for electrical engineers – e.g., the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). The IEEE, which claims to publish around 30% of the world's electrical engineering literature, has over 360,000 participants worldwide, and holds over 3,000 conferences every year. The IET has 21 journals, and a worldwide membership of around 150,000, and claims to be the largest professional engineering society in Europe. Obsolescence of technical skills is a serious concern for electrical engineers. Membership and participation in technical societies, regular reviews of periodicals in the field and a habit of continued learning are therefore essential to maintaining proficiency. MIET (Member of the Institution of Engineering and Technology) is recognized in Europe as Electrical and computer (technology) engineer.

In the US, Canada, and Australia, electrical engineers make up around 0.25% of the labor force. Outside of North America and Europe, engineering graduates per-capita, and hence probably electrical engineering graduates also, are most numerous in Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea.

According to Department of Labor 2009 data, the starting salary in the US for a BS for an electrical engineer is $60,125. Factors affecting salary include experience, skills, internship, geographic location, project and design experience, and size of company. The mid-career electrical engineers’ salary is in the range of $83,800 - $130,000. Educational level affects salary. The mean starting salary for a graduate with a master's degree is $71,455; and for a graduate with a PhD is $88,893. In Saudi Arabia, the average starting salary for a BS electrical engineer is around SR140, 000.

Electrical engineering has many sub-disciplines, the most popular of which are listed below. Although there are electrical engineers who focus exclusively on one of these sub-disciplines, many deal with a combination of them. Sometimes certain fields, such as electronic engineering and computer engineering, are considered separate disciplines in their own right.

Power Engineering:
Power engineering deals with the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity, as well as the design of a range of related devices. These include transformers, electric generators, electric motors, high voltage engineering, and power electronics. In many regions of the world, governments maintain an electrical network called a power grid that connects a variety of generators together with users of their energy.

Power plant:
Users purchase electrical energy from the grid, avoiding the costly exercise of having to generate their own. Power engineers may work on the design and maintenance of the power grid as well as the power systems that connect to it. Such systems are called on-grid power systems and may supply the grid with additional power, draw power from the grid or do both. Power engineers may also work on systems that do not connect to the grid, called off-grid power systems, which in some cases are preferable to on-grid systems. The future includes Satellite controlled power systems, with feedback in real time to prevent power surges and prevent blackouts.

Control engineering in space flights:
The modeling of a diverse range of dynamic systems and the design of controllers is one of the main tasks of control engineering. To implement such controller’s, electrical engineers can use electrical circuits, DSP, micro controllers and PLCs. Control engineering has a huge range of applications from the flight and propulsion systems of commercial airliners to the cruise control present in many modern cars. It also plays an important role in industrial automation.

Control engineering in production lines:
Control engineers utilize feedback when designing control systems. In a car with cruise control the vehicle's speed is monitored and fed back to the system which adjusts the power output accordingly. Where there is regular feedback, control theory is used to determine the system response to feedback.

Electronic Engineering:
Electronic Circuit:
Electronic engineering deals with the design and testing of any electronic circuits that use the properties of components. Resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes and transistors are used to achieve a particular function in a system. The tuned circuit, which allows the user of a radio to filter out all signals except the single station, is a simple example of such circuit.

Electronic Components:
Before the integrated circuit was invented in 1959, electronic circuits were constructed from discrete components. These discrete circuits consumed much power and space, and were limited in speed, although they were common in some applications. By contrast, integrated circuits packed a large number of tiny electrical components, mainly transistors, into a small chip. This resulted in the powerful computers and other electronic devices we see today.

Microelectronics:
Microelectronics engineers have the ability to deal with the design and micro fabrication of very small electronic circuit components for use in an integrated circuit or sometimes for use on their own as a general electronic component. Common microelectronic components are semiconductor transistors. Nano-electronics is the further scaling of devices down to nanometer scale. Modern devices are in the nanometer regime, with below 100 nm processing having been standard since about 2010.

Computer motherboard:
Microelectronic components are chemically fabricated wafers of semiconductors such as silicon, Si, (at higher frequencies, compound semiconductors like gallium arsenide and indium phosphide) for obtaining the desired transport of electronic charge and control of current. The field of micro electronics contains a significant amount of chemistry and material science and needs the electronic engineer working in the field to have a good working knowledge of the effects of quantum mechanics.

Signal processing engineering:
Signal processing to get ted, green, and blue value at each pixel
The analysis and manipulation of signals is the main task of signal processing. Signals are divided into analog or digital signals. In analog signals, the signal varies continuously according to the data, but in digital signals, the signal varies according to a series of discrete values representing the information. For analog signals, signal processing may involve the filtering or amplification of audio signals for audio equipment or the modulation and demodulation of signals for telecommunications. For digital signals, signal processing may concentrate on the compression, error detection and error correction of digitally sampled signals.

Signal processing is a very hot area that is rapidly expanding with new applications in most of the fields of electrical engineering such as communications, control, radar, audio engineering, broadcast engineering, power electronics, and bio-medical engineering. Analog signal processing is very important in the design of many control systems.

In every type of modern electronic systems, DSP processor ICs are found and products – including SDTV | HDTV sets, Hi-Fi audio equipment, radios and mobile communication devices, mobile phones, control systems, camcorders and digital cameras, noise cancelling headphones, digital spectrum analyzers, intelligent missile guidance, radar, GPS based cruise control systems and all kinds of image processing, video processing.
