Electrical Engineering Department
Diploma in Electrical Engineering (Energy Efficiency)

5.5. DIPLOMA ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING (ENERGY EFFICIENCY)

5.5.1. PROGRAMME INTRODUCTION

Electrical engineering is the field of study which generally deals with the application of electrical and electronics towards
designing, testing and development of circuitry and equipment for well-defined engineering activities. It requires the
application of scientific and engineering knowledge and methods combined with practical skills in supporting well-defined
engineering activities to prepare for their future role in the industry.

The electrical engineering diploma graduates of the Polytechnic’s Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia are exposed to a
comprehensive curriculum consisting of courses in personal development, mathematics, science, electrical disciplines and
workplace competencies requirements. Graduates of the electrical engineering diploma programme will be equipped with
specialized knowledge and skills which include power engineering, green technology, energy efficiency, computer
technology, communication, medical electronics, optoelectronic and industrial automation.

The Diploma in Electrical Engineering (Energy Efficiency) is a three-year full-time programme comprising of five
semesters course work with one full semester of industrial training.

5.5.2. PROGRAMME SYNOPSIS

The Diploma in Electrical Engineering (Energy Efficiency) programme is designed to cover the current wide
discipline of electrical engineering with the added specialization in-depth technical competence in a specific area of
energy efficiency used in the energy management. The broad-based electrical foundation of which includes electrical
principles, power system and protection, electrical machine and motor control. This programme focus on educating
students about developing sustainable energy practices. Students will apply knowledge of utilizing tools and techniques
for calculating specific energy consumption, establish an improved data recording, collect and analysis system to keep
track of energy consumption, conduct energy audits and leading efforts to conserve energy and reduce energy-related
costs, assess the potential of new energy efficiency technologies and also improve the performance of machines and
utilities.

5.5.3. JOB PROSPECTS

This programme provides the knowledge and skills in electrical engineering that can be applied to a broad range of
careers in most power generation provider and energy management companies. The knowledge and skills that the
students acquire from the programme will enable them to participate in the job market such as:

a. Assistant Energy Officer
b. Measurement and Verification Technician
c. Assistant Energy Auditor
d. Assistance Energy Manager
e. Technical Assistant
f. Assistant Energy Officer
g. Electrical Technician
h. Electrical Engineering Service Advisor
i. Technical Assistant
j. Electrical Engineering Supervisor
k. Assistant Engineer
l. Energy Audit Supervisor

PLO7: responsibilities relevant to engineering technician practice and solutions to well-defined engineering
problems (DK7)

understand and evaluate the sustainability and impact of engineering technician work in the solution of well-
defined engineering problems in societal and environmental contexts (DK7).

PLO8: understand and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of technician practice

PLO9: function effectively as an individual, and as a member in diverse technical teams

PLO10: communicate effectively on well-defined engineering activities with the engineering community and with
society at large, by being able to comprehend the work of others, document their own work, and give and
receive clear instructions

PLO11: demonstrate knowledge and understanding of engineering management principles and apply these to one’s
own work, as a member or leader in a technical team and to manage projects in multidisciplinary
environments

PLO12: recognise the need for, and have the ability to engage in independent updating in the context of specialised
technical knowledge
