Why study electrical engineering?
Saudi Arabia is investing more in its national grid, power generation, and energy infrastructure than at any point in its history. Vision 2030’s giga-projects are advancing fast. This is fueling sustained demand for skilled electrical engineers in the Kingdom, with electrical engineering salaries in Saudi Arabia now averaging around SAR 233,000 per year.
Upon graduation you will receive a Bachelor of Science in Engineering (BSE) in Electrical Engineering from Kingdom University and one from Arizona State University (ASU), ranked #1 in the U.S. for innovation for 11 consecutive years (U.S. News & World Report, 2016–2026). With a local degree and an international degree you can double your career opportunities, both locally and globally.
Summary
Program Summary
Kingdom University’s Bachelor of Science in Engineering in Electrical Engineering offers curriculum inspired by Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University. The schools offer the largest and most comprehensive engineering programs in the United States. This engineering degree from Kingdom University also offers a pathway to a second degree from Arizona State university.
The program blends circuit design, electromagnetics, signal processing, and power electronics, preparing you to design the systems behind today’s most complex technologies.
The curriculum is built around learning by doing. In every semester, you will complete real projects that emphasize communication, teamwork, and professionalism, the same qualities demanded by Saudi Arabia’s most ambitious employers.
The program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET (abet.org) under the Electrical and Electronics Engineering Program Criteria, the global gold standard for engineering program quality.
Why Kingdom University for Electrical Engineering?
