The Faculty of Engineering and Technology offers programmes that build technical competence and engineering problem-solving skills. With an emphasis on innovation, practical training, and industry relevance, FOET prepares students for careers in engineering and technology fields, equipping them to contribute to technological development and industry needs.
FOET supports sustainability through programmes related to renewable energy, environmental engineering, energy efficiency, automation, and smart technology — training engineers capable of developing solutions that reduce environmental impact, optimise resource use, and strengthen sustainable infrastructure.
This course covers the topic of role, responsibility and principle of ethic in technology practice. At the same time in technology development, societal, safety, health, legal, cultural and environmental impact issue is discussed. Furthermore, the issue of natural resources and pollution is also covered corresponding to the sustainable development goals (SDG).
This course covers the fundamental concepts of sustainability through green manufacturing system which aims to conserve energy and natural resources. This is to ensure that they have minimal impact on the environment and society. It targets at fulfilling the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. An overview of the various methodologies and its application in improving the eco-efficiency is focused in this course.
Programmes:
Bachelor of Electrical and Electronics Engineering with Honours
Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering with Honours
The scope of an engineer has gone beyond the theoretical analysis and design into the holistic framework of integrating into society in general. It is therefore important for engineers to possess the skills and abilities to function as part of society, understand the impact of professional responsibilities and norms of engineering practice. This course will provide students the awareness on impact of their action on the environment and society in various aspects including assess of societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issue. This course will also acquaint them with their working environment so that they can achieve a relatively easy transition from undergraduates to working engineers.
Programme: Bachelor of Electrical and Electronics Engineering with Honours
This course is to introduce electric power utilisation and installation design for industrial, commercial and domestic consumers. The topic include electric drive, illumination, electric heating, electric welding, electrolytic processes, electric traction and electrical circuits used in refrigeration and air conditioning and water coolers.

The course covers the topics on the Nine Pillars of Industry 4.0, such as Data Analytics in Manufacturing, Internet of Things, Advances in Robotics in Industry 4.0, Augmented Reality (AR) in Industry 4.0, Additive Manufacturing Technologies and Applications, Advances in Virtual Factory Research and Applications and Cyber Security in Industry 4.0.
Programme: Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering with Honours
Natural frequencies of multi-degree-of-freedom systems are determined by solving the eigenvalue problem. Forced vibration caused by external forces, support displacements and rotating unbalance are dealt with. Methods of reducing vibration include vibration absorber and the vibration isolator. The quantitative effects of sound are measured in terms of the decibel. An introduction to acoustic sources, receivers and sound barriers.
Programme: Bachelor of Electronics Engineering Technology with Honours
This course acquaints the student with his future responsibility as an engineering technologist as well as preparing him to be aware and able to assess the impact of his work as an engineering technologist in the society of which he is part of. It will also equip him with a better understanding of the key issues and ethical commitment he will face in his chosen profession especially in the use of resources and materials and finally it also expose him to the concept of risk management, engineering safety and prevention of accidents.
