Welcome to the Department of Telecommunication Engineering, the most recent addition to the already existing departments under the Faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering. The high rate of technological advancement in the telecom sector calls for the establishent of this department. Telecommunication Engineering finds placement in every aspect of Electrical Engineering and Engineering practice as a whole. Stronger emphasis is placed on Wireless Communictaion Systems, Mobile and Satellite Communication Systems, Digital Signal Processing, Analog and Digital Communication Systems, Microwave Engineering and Electromagnetic Compatibility.
The Department focuses on development, design and maintenance of voice and data communications systems – optical fibre, satellite, wired, unwired, and the encoding, encryption and compression of data. The Blackberry is old; 3G is dead, Torrent downloads take too long – the world is moving to 4G, wireless sensors networks, body area networks, and ‘smart’ meters.
There are worldwide career opportunities in our global village. Anything requiring the transmission of information across channels via wired or unwired channels utilises telecommunications engineering. Being the only Public University in Ghana to offer this programme, the Department of Telecommunication Engineering shapes
Information and Communication Technology at KNUST, Ghana and West Africa at large
