Established in 2004, the Department of Electrical Engineering is one of the largest department of WEC. Annually 80 students are enrolled in the undergraduate program. The Department offers BSc, MS and PhD degrees in Electrical Engineering which are well planned and devised according to recommendations and guidelines of the Higher Education Commission (HEC) and the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC). Our programs are crafted to groom students for required technical as well as managerial skills for practical life and to enable them to smoothly pursue higher studies.

Each program has an exceptional blend of theoretical aspect and extensive practical training to shape students into skillful professionals ready to take up real world challenges in the industry. An updated curriculum is followed and courses are offered by highly qualified faculty with reputable accomplishments in research, academic publications and industrial projects. Faculty members and students are pursuing collaborative research with the industries in Pakistan. The Department provides excellent lab facilities equipped with software and hardware tools to support its academic programs.

The Department has a vibrant research program both at faculty and graduate level. The graduate programs consist of advanced courses in Power, Communications and Signal Processing and Controls etc. Students are required to opt one of these specialization areas and undertake research in the chosen field.

Electrical Engineers are in great demand in local and international industry. At Wah Engineering College, students are equipped with theoretical and practical knowledge of their respective fields so that they can undertake responsibilities successfully in their future careers. Graduates of Electrical Engineering of previous batches have found places in top companies both in Pakistan and at least 5-10% of our graduate are perusing higher studies in world leading universities. Some of the prospective employing sectors/industries of our Electrical Engineering graduates are listed below:
