Welcome to the Department of electrical and electronics engineering. Here, we explore a field of engineering that generally deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism.

It covers a wide range of sub-fields including electronics, digital computers, power engineering, telecommunications, control systems, RF engineering, and signal processing. In electronic engineering, we deal with non-linear and active electrical components such as electron tubes, and semiconductor devices, especially transistors, diodes and integrated circuits, are utilized to design electronic circuits, devices and systems, typically also including passive electrical components and based on printed circuit boards.

The department has adequate facilities and resources that enable our students to get hands-on experience and ready for the market. Our labs and workshops are fully furnished with a variety of necessary equipment and machinery. This enables our students develop the needed skills and expertise earliest and quickly enabling them to fit well in the working environment. This contributes much in exposing our students to real work scenarios and environments.

Our students have excelled in both class work and practical making them exceptionally marketable in the job market. We have a very motivated teaching and technical staff in the department who contribute greatly in the success of the students. We have been registering a 70%-100% pass from our students. Our lecturers are highly trained and qualified enough for the success of our students.

We participate and coordinate the TVET fair and robotics contest. This exposes our students to the growing labor market and gives then a sharper edge in the same. Our curriculum also includes a one term attachment in the industrial field to ensure the students are fully exposed and this attachment is assessed by the teaching staff from the department.

The courses are modular oriented and the examining bodies  for modular and  short courses are KNEC and NITA respectively.

We offer diploma, certificate   artisan and grade levels
