Professional Goals

 

The Electrotechnical and Computer Engineeringdegree (LEEC) was designed so as to provide the students with sound scientific and technological foundations in order to meet the present and future requirements of the labour market. Graduates of this degree are offered a wide range of career opportunities which translates into high employment rates.

Comprising two major areas (Industrial Automation and Energy), the degree aims at delivering first-cycle level professionals prepared to perform duties with scientific accuracy and technological timeliness in the various electricity and electronics related domains. Graduates of this degree acquire varied and versatile skills to conceive, design, plan and implement systems in areas such as control, automation, robotics, energy, machinery, electrical vehicles, electrical installations, domotics, electronics, telecommunications and production and use of electrical power.

Throughout each academic year, extra-class activities are performed, namely seminars, conferences and field trips that greatly contribute to the scientific training of students and their contact with the industrial reality.

The programme guidelines place special emphasis on R&D of applied projects in partnership with companies, business associations (Nersant), business associations (Acitofeba), industrial innovation laboratory (Line.ipt) and research institutions (TI - Telecommunications Institute, and ISR - Institute for Systems and Robotics) as a strategic motor of economical development, innovation and growth of productive capacity.
