Abstract: Engineering is the discipline and profession of capturing and applying mathematical, technical and scientific knowledge to research, plan, design, invent and implement real world cutting edge technology using appropriate materials, devices, procedures and systems to achieve desired objectives efficiently.
Perception of the telecommunications engineering is important in the current economy. By studying telecommunication engineering, students will understand the theory and practice of significant advancements and developments in modern technology. Telecommunication engineers design, develop, test and maintain telecommunications systems. They are one of the driving forces behind recent, significant growth in areas such as the Internet, mobile telephones and other modern wired and wireless communications systems. This talk enlightens telecommunication course design approach for under graduate and post graduate levels. Main subjects in telecommunications engineering courses include: Digital systems, Overview of digital communication, Telecommunication system engineering, Telecommunication modeling and simulation, and Mobile and satellite communication systems. This talk also covers core body of telecommunications knowledge, course design and development based on current industry trends and feedback received from professional engineers.
