摘要：UOIT’s Electrical Engineering program was launched in September 2005. The driving factors and critical requirements for this program were unique, and led to the development of a curriculum which is innovative in many respects, yet maintains the best features of traditional EE programs. The development effort focused on the quality of the curriculum, in terms of content, pedagogy and delivery, as quality is important to students, prospective employers, graduate schools, accreditation bodies and the engineering community. Since the notion of quality is always multi-dimensional, we provide here the rationale for the EE program from many perspectives: generalized vs. specialized,, problem solving vs. engineering design, technical vs. complementary studies, circuits vs. signals, analog vs. digital, lab experimentation vs. computer simulation, and knowledge-sake vs. market-oriented.
