HND in Electricals/Electronics Engineering

The HND in Electricals/Electronics Engineering at Tamale Technical University is a diploma programme offered under the Faculty of Engineering. It is aimed at students who completed SHS with General Science or Technical Studies backgrounds. The programme gives you practical knowledge of electrical and electronic systems, preparing you for technical roles in industry.

What electrical and electronics engineering covers

Programmes of this kind typically cover the principles of electricity, electronics, control systems, and electrical machines. You learn how to install, maintain, and repair electrical and electronic equipment, and how to work with circuits, power systems, and communication devices. The focus is usually on practical skills that you can apply directly in settings like factories, power plants, construction sites, and telecommunication firms.

How hard it is to get a place

Admission to this HND is less competitive than entry into many other engineering programmes. Tamale Technical University admits students from General Science and Technical Studies backgrounds, so if you completed SHS in one of these streams and you meet the basic admission requirements, you have a reasonable chance of gaining a place.
