Our main aim is to continuously produce high-quality research and graduates, through our professionally accredited undergraduate and postgraduate courses and research works. With a strong number of qualified staffs, we are one of the leading communities in the region that focus on diverse areas of communication engineering, including electromagnetic analysis, wireless technologies, RF & microwave devices, antenna technologies, radar system, and satellite communication.
The highly-recognized works of our Research Interest Groups (RIG) – the Microwave Research Institute (MRI), the Wireless Communication Technology Research Group (WICOT), the Antenna Research Centre (ARC), the Photonics Research Group (PRG) and the Applied Electromagnetic Research Group (AERG) - feed directly into our teaching, which will benefit our students significantly as they will be exposed with the latest development in the respective fields by our highly reputable research teams.
Our collaborations with industries and other local and international institutions show that we are aware and committed to the latest needs and trends of our research fields.
Research
Through our research activities, we emphasize on solving real engineering problems through theoretical and practical works, by adopting the appropriate scientific research methods. As to ensure continuous skill development and learning experience, our researchers are actively involved in the following fields of interest:
Antenna and Propagation
Space Science and Satellite Engineering
High Frequency Technology and Devices
Radio Frequency (RF) for Bio-Medical System
Electromagnetism, Microelectronics and Opto-Electronics
