Electronics Engineering Education in New Millennium with Effective Involvement of user Agencies

Abstract

Engineering plays an important role in the development of a nation therefore electronics engineering education system should be modified to keep pace with the advancement in technology. In this paper a general overview about necessities of our user agencies and measures to achieve them are presented. For the development of the nation, industries must analyse their needs and electronics engineering education should modify their curriculum to adapt to both future demands of users and fast changes in technology. To support this certain techniques like development of R & D labs, interdisciplinary programs and continuing education and training programs are discussed. A future plan of education system is proposed to implement the various techniques to realize the dream of a globally standardized curriculum for electronics engineering with effective involvement of user agencies.
