Diploma in Electrical Engineering

 

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Ecole de Ingenieurs SCPU's one year Diploma in Engineering is designed to train the students to work as Engineering Associate or Engineering Technicians in wide ranges of industries.

It is designed to provide the following competencies.
- To train the students to have a wide range of functions within engineering enterprises and engineering teams.

The training includes feasibility investigation, scoping, establishing criteria/performance measures, assessing and reporting technical and procedural options; design and development; component, resources and materials sourcing and procurement; construction, prototyping, manufacture, testing, installation, commissioning, service provision and de-commissioning; tools, plant, equipment and facilities acquisition, management, maintenance, calibration and upgrades; operations management; procedures documentation; presentation and reporting; maintenance systems design and management; project and facility management; quality assurance, costing and budget management; document control and quality assurance.

The training is designed for the students
· To be closely familiar with standards and codes of practice, and to become expert in their interpretation and application to a wide variety of situations.
· To develop very extensive experience of practical installations, and may well be more knowledgeable than Professional Engineers or Engineering Technologists on detailed aspects of plant and equipment that can contribute very greatly to safety, cost or effectiveness in operation.
· To develop high levels of expertise in aspects of design and development processes. These might include, for example, the use of advanced software to perform detailed design of structures, mechanical components and systems, manufacturing or process plant, electrical and electronic equipment, information and communications systems, and so on.
· To do the construction of experimental or prototype equipment.
· To develop detailed practical knowledge and experience complementing the broader or more theoretical knowledge of others.

The training is also designed to provide a good grounding in engineering science and the principles underlying their field of expertise, to ensure that their knowledge and skills are portable across different applications and situations within the broad field of practice.

Equipment, vendor or context-specific training in a particular job are not sufficient to guarantee generic competency.

Given a good knowledge base, however, the graduates may build further on this through high levels of training in particular contexts and in relation to particular equipment.

The competencies of graduates to equip them to certify the quality of engineering work and the condition of equipment and systems in defined circumstances, laid down in recognised standards and codes of practice.

The training is also designed to lead or manage teams appropriate to these activities. Some may establish their own companies or may move into senior management roles in engineering and related enterprises, employing Professional Engineers, Engineering Technologists, and other specialists where appropriate.
