The department is currently in a phase of expansion, having taken on four new members of academic staff in the last year. An extensive refurbishment of the laboratories and teaching areas is currently in progress, and is being supported by the government under a skills shortage initiative and by industries who are keen to recruit UCC engineering graduates. The undergraduate student population is the strongest in Ireland, achieving the highest score at school Leaving Certificate examinations. The undergraduate courses and the research activities of the department cover the full range of electrical engineering with an additional mechanical input. During the expansion period, we are keen to recruit good quality graduates as PhD students into many of the above areas.
Funds are available.
