(MENAFN- The Peninsula) The Electrical and Computer Engineering Programme at Texas A & M University at Qatar has been ranked in the top 75 of the best electrical and electronics engineering programmes worldwide according to Shanghai Ranking's Global Ranking of Academic Subjects 2020.
This is the second confirmation of the elite status of Texas A & M at Qatar's electrical engineering programme, which in 2019 was ranked 68th worldwide by US News & World Report in the category of Best Global Universities for Electrical and Electronic Engineering.
Established 16 years ago, the Electrical and Computer Engineering Programme has evolved into a top programme because of the support offered by Qatar Foundation and Texas A & M's main campus in College Station, Texas (USA), said programme chair Dr. Erchin Serpedin. Such success corroborates the high quality of the research activities conducted in the department, which have been supported by grants offered by the Qatar National Research Fund.
One such recent success is the $3.2m international collaboration led by the Electrical and Computer Engineering Programme for smart grid cybersecurity infrastructure in Qatar, with the ultimate goal of providing more safer, more reliable energy supply for the country.
Serpedin said the high level of education and research activities offered by the programme can be attributed to the excellent placement of its graduates in master's and doctoral programs at elite universities such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of California, Berkeley, Caltech, Georgia Tech, Columbia University and University College London.
