B-Tech in Electrical and Electronics Engineering

This B-Tech in Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Sunyani Technical University prepares you to work with the systems that power modern life. You will study how electrical energy is generated, transmitted, and used, as well as the electronics that control everything from household devices to industrial machinery. If you enjoy solving practical problems and working with technology, this programme could be a strong next step after SHS.

What electrical and electronics engineering covers

Programmes of this kind usually start with the fundamentals: circuit theory, electromagnetism, and basic electronics. As you progress, you will encounter power systems, control systems, telecommunications, and digital electronics. Much of the learning involves applying theory to real-world situations, so you can expect to develop skills in troubleshooting, designing systems, and understanding how components work together.

How competitive a place is

Entry into this programme is generally less competitive than many other engineering degrees, which can work in your favour. Sunyani Technical University admits students with General Science or Technical Studies backgrounds from SHS. Since admission is not as fiercely contested, your WASSCE grades may have a better chance of meeting the threshold. Still, you should check whether your specific results qualify, as every applicant's situation is reviewed individually.
