General Description

History

The Electrical and Electronics Engineering Department (EEE) was founded in 1981 as part of the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture of Ege University. In 1982, the Department of EEE was incorporated into the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture of the newly established Dokuz Eylül University. The Department of EEE started its graduate and undergraduate programs in the academic years of 1981-1982 and 1982-1983, respectively. The department adopted English as its teaching language for the graduate program in 1987 and for the undergraduate program in 1993.
Our Graduate Programmes train their students in the study areas of circuits and systems, electronics, electromagnetics, electrical machines, signal processing, control, and telecommunications and aim to provide its graduates with the abilities of conducting independent research, participating in research and development projects as part of the project staff, and disseminating outcomes of their research work by publishing in conference proceedings and scientific journals.

In addition to the obligatory courses, students register to elective courses with the approval of their supervsors. If necessary, on the consent of their supervisor, they can also register to courses from other programmes (from DEU or other universities). It is obligatory to register EEE5501. But, with approval of the supervisor, instead of registering EEE5501 students can also register to EEE5013 or EEE5015, or one compulsory course from Mathematic or Statistic program (Except MAT5001). The registration must be noticed to the Institute during course registration period by the supervisor. Students can also register to a course with EEE code (including EEE5501) as an elective course.
