Introduction
Curriculum and Learning Process
The genesis of any engineering program is the fusion of its stakeholders’ perceptions. The academic curriculum of the program is designed to facilitate / ensure the achievement of program outcomes by all students. This is achieved by offering a balanced combination of technical and non-technical contents coupled with appropriate assessment and evaluation methods. This has a well-defined core of essential subjects supported by requisite compulsory as well as elective courses. It also invokes awareness and comprehension of societal problems amongst the students and motivating them to seek solutions for improving the quality of life. The theory content of the curriculum is supplemented with appropriate experimentation / laboratory work.
The program structure is covering the essential fundamental principles at the initial stages, leading to integrated studies in the final year of the program, in consonance with the approach and levels defined in various taxonomy levels, particularly in breadth & depth courses.
The hallmark of a curriculum is to infuse original thinking, resourcefulness and entrepreneurial spirits among students. This program is embodying foundation courses as well as the general and specialized professional content of adequate Breadth and Depth, including appropriate Humanities and Science components. The program scheme is designed to ensure acquisition of knowledge and skills, encouraging necessary exposure to inter- disciplinary areas.
The contents of each constituent courses of the curriculum has been updated to absorb recent technological and knowledge developments as per international practices and to meet the national needs. Efforts are also made that there should also be an effective relationship between the curricular content and practice in the field of specialization.
It is expected that the graduates are able to demonstrate professional ethics and competence in oral communication, scientific & quantitative reasoning, critical analysis, system design, logical thinking, creativity and capacity for life-long learning.

Dr. Muhammad Zubair Ahmad, Co-Convener and Dr. Tayab Din Memon, Secretary also briefed the participants. The house unanimously agreed to pursue the same track for development of Curriculum in field of Electrical Engineering. The house also agreed to devise mechanism for offering a generalized degree in the field of Electrical Engineering as a separate model in addition to existing models for offering degree in Electrical Engineering with any of the specialization streams. In next session, the house openly discussed the nomenclature of the discipline, preface, objectives of the programmes, suggested programme learning outcomes (PLOs), methods of instruction and learning environment, assessment and operational framework. After long deliberation, the committee finalized the curriculum framework, the duration of the programme, number of semesters, number of weeks per semester, total number of credit hours, weightage of engineering and non- engineering courses and weightage of theory and practical of undergraduate 4-years programme for Electrical Engineering. Furthermore, list of courses (core & elective) and semester wise breakup of courses were also discussed thoroughly and the same was unanimously finalized. In the afternoon session, admission criteria/intake criteria was discussed and finalized. After that the list of courses was distributed among the relevant groups composed of following committee members keeping in view the experience and expertise in the field for reviewing course objectives, adding course learning outcomes, updating list of contents,
Dr. Muhammad Zubair Ahmad, Co-Convener, briefed each group about relevant tasks to be completed.
On the second day, short presentation related to task assigned to the groups, were presented by relevant group conveners in the light of feedback received on first day. Prof. Dr. Imtiaz Taj presented the sample plan for mapping courses to PLOs and introduced the concepts of assigning taxonomy levels for various course learning outcomes in the form of examples. After through deliberation, draft curriculum of the undergraduate (4-years) programme for Electrical Engineering was finalized. In the evening session, the courses of postgraduate programme were distributed among the members, who were well versed and involved in this programme. Dr. Tayab Din Memon, Secretary, coordinated the functions of each group. On the third day, group conveners briefed the house about progress made by each focus group. The courses of postgraduate programme of Electrical Engineering were reviewed and it was decided that outlines of each postgraduate field of specialization will also be developed in due course of time. It was decided that the draft curriculum of Electrical Engineering would be circulated among the experts of field (local & foreign) and the feedback of the experts will be incorporated in final meeting. In the end, Dr. Idrees thanked the Convener, Co-convener and Secretary and all members of the Committee for sparing their time and for their contribution to prepare the revised draft of the curriculum. He further stated that their efforts will go a long way in developing workable, useful and market oriented comprehensive degree programmes in Electrical Engineering. The Convener of the NCRC also thanked the members for their inputs in revising/updating the curriculum to make it more practical, competitive, efficient and realistic. The committee highly appreciated the efforts made by the officials of HEC Regional Centre, Peshawar for making arrangements to facilitate the committee and their accommodation. The meeting ended with the vote of thanks to HEC and Dr. Muhammad Idrees and his team from HEC for providing this academic and professional opportunity for national cause.
