BS ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING

Brief History

The Bachelor of Science in Electronics Engineering is a four-year program that deals with the branch of engineering that integrates available and emerging technologies with knowledge of mathematics, natural, social and applied sciences to conceptualize, design, and implement new, improved, or innovative electronic, computer and communication systems, devices, goods, services and processes.

The scope and nature of practice of the Electronics Engineer shall embrace and consist of any work or activity relating to the application of engineering sciences and/or principles to the investigation, analysis, synthesis, planning, design, specification, research and development, provision, procurement, marketing and sales, manufacture and production, construction and installation, tests/measurements/control, operation, repair, servicing, technical support and maintenance of electronic components devices, products, apparatus, instruments, equipment, systems, networks, operations and processes in the fields of electronics, including:

  • communications and/or telecommunications
  • information and communications technology (ICT)
  • computers and their networking and hardware/firmware/software development and applications
  • broadcast/broadcasting
  • cable and wireless television
  • consumer and industrial electronics
  • electro-optics/photonics/opto-electronics
  • electro-magnetics
  • avionics, aerospace, navigational and military applications
  • medical electronics
  • robotics, cybernetics, biometrics
  • and all other related and convergent fields

It also includes the administration, management, supervision and regulatory aspects of such works and activities; similarly included are those teaching and training activities which develop the ability to use electronic engineering fundamentals and related advanced knowledge in electronics engineering, including lecturing and teaching of technical and professional subjects given in the electronics engineering and electronics technician curriculum and licensure examinations.

The program also offers three (3) specialization tracks namely: microelectronics, information & computing technologies, and telecommunications & building infrastructures.

The key resources of the program involve outcomes-based curriculum, the qualified and competent faculty members who will handle courses in the program, the ICT resources that the university continuously is upgrading to fit for online activities, and the linkages and collaborations in both public and private sectors including international organizations.

Engineers who are the output of the university create value. Their skills and competences are their instruments to invent something, to create new things, to modify and renew things that are not only needed by the marketplace but also to transform lives of people.

Customer segmentation is vital for colleges and universities who want to offer new programs. To really assure that the needs and wants of their target market will be provided they developed strategies on how to really capture them. Segmenting the market enables the management to enhance their capability to determine and identify product identity. This offers opportunities for product differentiation, which is providing perspective on what it is that makes an institution unique that the market cares about.

For Batangas State University, being prominent in producing quality engineers, as seen in their records as top performing schools in almost all of the engineering programs not only in the region but in the entire country is only a proof of this product’s uniqueness. More so, having been accredited by an international accrediting agency and compliance to ISO and other local accrediting bodies requirements may also be considered proof that our products which are students are unique because the processes of providing those are also unique. Still, the segments of this new program offering are engineers in industries, academe, private and public institutions and including private practitioners since it is the vision of the university to produce competent and morally upright graduates who can be an active participant in nation building and responsive to the challenges of the 21st century.
