of science and technology-led development. For this purpose, MIT commits itself to offer high quality
education, undertake advanced research and development, and deliver reliable community services in
engineering, science, and technology.
Mekelle Institute of Technology started operations in four fields of engineering, science and technology,
namely: Computer Science and Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Electrical
Engineering, and Information Technology. A fifth program, known as Biological and Chemical
Engineering, was launched in October 2009/10. Unlike the traditional single discipline approach in many
undergraduate programs elsewhere, the fields of engineering and technology pioneered in MIT were
developed to be characteristically distinctive in their relevance and scope. The salient feature of each of the
programs is that students graduated from each department shall have an expertise in two distinctive but
related disciplines. For instance, graduates from the department of Electronics and communication
Engineering will be good enough in both Communication engineering and Electronics engineering. This
arrangement helps graduates have better employment opportunities. Another key peculiarity of the
programs is that they have good deal of practical training – where practical lessons account to about 35%
of the total contact hours – as the programs require students to be engaged in extensive, out-of-class, hands-
on activities as well as summer independent projects during their pre-final year and senior projects.

2.3 Rationales of the Program
The diffusion of technology and knowledge is a salient feature in the technological change, innovation
and growth of the modern society. In these days, development of a country mainly depends on the
development of the industries. The development of these sectors significantly depends on the standard of
science, engineering and technical education nurtured by the universities and the technical institutes of the
country. It is observed that most of the developed countries maintain a strong relationship between the
universities and the industries. It is believed that the universities are the gateway of new technologies.
Universities develop new technologies and by co-operating with industries they implement these
technologies to raise the standard and effectiveness of the industry. Universities take the responsibilities to
provide technical human resources for the industries of any country.
The basic rationale for all of the Department’s programs are the prevailing conditions in the Country with
respect to the needs for professionals in this area and the future trends that are developing in the demands
for the profession. The Department has been keenly following the developments in this regard both within
the Country and internationally and the following provide some of the major facts and observations on
which these programs premised.
a) For more than a decade, the Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering, Mekelle
Institute of Technology, has been offering undergraduate training in the their respective disciplines.
Over these years the undergraduate instructions have significantly developed - reflecting both the
national needs and the rapid growth of the discipline - and have now reached a point where
graduates of its undergraduate programs are equipped with sufficient theoretical and practical
skills that would enable them to be engaged in work in the Electronic/ Communication sector of
the national economy.
b) Ethiopia, like many of the developing countries, is essentially a user of products of Electronics
Engineering technology. The current undergraduate programs, which are matured through a series
of evolutionary changes over the years, were designed so as to meet the needs of the main
employers of the graduates in the operation and maintenance of electronic and communication
equipment.
c) It is still logical to maintain the broad nature of the undergraduate curricula that affords the
graduates versatility in terms of employment. But it has now become necessary to look ahead to
the future needs of the Country and provide educational means to meet these needs. The current
revision of the curricula is therefore sought to address these through strengthening all streams.
With the advent of microelectronics, computers and computer-based equipment have found wider
application in industry and other sectors. The declining prices for these equipment have also made them
affordable and therefore accessible to large segments in industry. Computer applications have now been
diversified and the traditional use of the computer in data processing and other computational application
Page 8 of 96
are only a small part of these diverse applications. Furthermore, the convergence of computers &
communication technologies has made it imperative to provide education that imports knowledge & skill
in these two fields concurrently. The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering is well
placed to offer such a program through its currently revised programs.
This newly revised Electronics and Communication Engineering degree program is a 5-year program,
including industry internship semester, which prepares graduates for careers as professional engineers in
electronics and communication engineering. The training provided should be versatile and enables
graduates to work in research, design, development, manufacturing, quality control, marketing, sales and
technical support, and as entrepreneurs, consultants and teachers. The aim is to produce Electronics and
communication engineers who are flexible across various disciplines; and are able to apply their
knowledge and skills to lead multi-disciplinary teams to solve the increasingly complex problems of the
industry and technology.
2.3.1. Need for curriculum revision

Engineering in general and electronics and communication engineering in particular is a highly dynamic
field of study in that the rapid development of the technology doesn’t allow leaving academic curricula
untouched for a long time. Thus, to minimize the gap between the state of the art and the teaching process
and to maintain the relevance and educational standard, there is always a need for curricula review.
Moreover, we have conducted a nation-wide need assessment before conducting the curriculum review
and we have found out that our graduates lack in industry experience and related with.
2.3.2 Key Changes on the Existing Curriculums

In view of the objective of providing a more practical oriented training, the revised curriculum has been
devised to incorporate:
 a newly added common assessment semester to prepare students for the engineering study.
 a newly added mandatory internship (industry placement) to let the students be exposed to some
practical and industrial experience prior to the completion of their studies is incorporated.
 students will also be exposed to hands-on workshop practice and frequent excursions to various
industries at early stages of the program.
Moreover, new course on Logical Reasoning is also added.
2.4 Objectives of the program

It is being observed that there is a widespread and dynamic change in the application and development in
the field of Electronics and communication Engineering in the country and the world. Therefore, there is
a need for revising the currently running program with respect to the national and international situation.
The Department feels that much is expected from it to bring about changes in the department.
To-day’s Electronics and communication engineers must be able to find solutions to new complex and
challenging technical problems. They must have strong scientific, technical and managerial skills and be
able to integrate technical concepts with practical applications

2.6 Principles of Professionalism

The electronics and communication engineer who works in the industry will encounter
challenging problems in designing systems to meet the requirements of society. For instance,
electronics and communication engineer will focus on delivering reliable, fast and safe
connectivity with in the Telecommunication industry. In order to meet this demand of society as
well as technology, engineers should commit themselves to the highest ethical and professional
conduct. Electronics and communication Engineer upholds and advances the integrity, honor and
dignity of the engineering profession by:
1. Using their knowledge and skill for the enhancement of human welfare;
2. Being honest and impartial, and serving with fidelity the public, their employers and clients;
3. Striving to increase the competence and prestige of the engineering profession;

7. Treating fairly all persons regardless of such factors as race, religion, gender, disability, age, or
national origin;
8. Avoiding injuring others, their property, reputation, or employment by false or malicious action;
9. Imparting knowledge to the student as a teacher.
10. Assisting colleagues and co-workers in their professional development and professional work.
3. The Curriculum (Concept and Implementation)
3.1 Structure of the Curriculum

The assessment semester is intended to consolidate the students' educational background for
higher learning and further help them to adapt to the system. In the next 9 consecutive semesters,
after the common assessment semester, all the students take courses mainly in the core electronic
and communication engineering courses. This provides them with a broad background in
Electronics and communication engineering.
Common Assessment Semester
The new curriculum begins with one assessment semester for all incoming students to MIT.
The prime objective of the Assessment semester is to help incoming students comprehend the
different fields of engineering and be able to acquire useful orientations for their future career
choices. The assessment semester, will pave the way for the students to begin building their
future career. They will be exposed to the interdisciplinary nature of the Engineering Profession.
They will take different basic courses on mathematics, higher level English language, and social
Page 11 of 96
sciences. There will also be operational course delivered in this semester that will be used as a
foundation for the courses throughout the curriculum.
Internship
In industry internship students, must be attached with an industry for six months in order to get
real world experience in their field of study, which compliments their education. The internship
program takes place during the ninth semester, when the students finish the fourth year of their
study (just before the final semester). The reasons for choosing the 9th semester is;
1. The internship program is a two-way street; meaning both the student and the industry should
benefit from the program. The student can easily understand what is going on in the industry and
contribute to the industry while also learning.
2. The students will have the opportunity to focus on the practical aspects of their interest and will
have the opportunity to bring practical problem that can be a topic of study for their Final project.
The objectives of the internship program, therefore, can be generalized as follows;

 Expansion of knowledge and acquaintance with industry in the field of Electronics and
communication engineering.
 Participation in the development, manufacture and assembly of products typical for the
industry.
 Involvement in the planning, steering and management of the design & implementation and
maintenance of processes.
 Hands-on training in practical skills typical for the industry. Typically, this would-be
participation (individually or within a (task) group) in real assignments/projects, which entail
the application of knowledge and skills attained during their studies at University –and aiming
at developing special skills related to the industrial practice– in one or several of the following
fields (depending on the type of industry and company profile):
- Design and maintenance
- Laboratory (quality monitoring) work
- Task management (labor management, logistics, etc.)
- Business management
- Marketing
During the internship, the daily and monthly working times follow the systems practiced in the
respective industry for the upper middle-level management. Specifically, they follow the system
practiced in the respective company that hosts the student. An advisor will also be assigned for
every student that will follow up the progress of his/her stay in the company and advise the student
while preparing the report of the internship. As a rule, the entire internship period has to be spent
in a single company; a change of company during the internship period will only be permitted
under extraordinary circumstances. In such a case, the decision is with the MIT’s Institute Industry
Linkage Officer and the department Committee.
A seminar organized by the Institute Industry Linkage Officer and the DC, will accompany the
internship semester to present the report of the students’ observations. Participation in the seminar
program is compulsory (mandatory) for the student intending to present their internship report.
At the end of the internship, the student submits to the Institute Industry Linkage Officer and the
Department a comprehensive report, duly endorsed by the student’s host company. The report is
Page 12 of 96
assigned 15 credits. The report will be assessed by specifically assigned university instructors
from the department.

GC 504 Engineering Entrepreneurship 3 0 0 3
Course Objectives
To familiarize students to the idea of entrepreneurship and initiate their attitude for
entrepreneurship.
Course Descriptions
The course focuses on conceptual, outside-in approach, exploring Technopreneurship and the
process of new venture creation by studying and discussing a number of cases covering the
entrepreneurial process from various angles. The cases and supporting readings will
illustrate issues and concepts like: what does it take (and what not) to be an entrepreneur; what is
entrepreneurship and administrative versus entrepreneurial behavior; academic versus surrogate
entrepreneurship and the role of the scientist in academic spin-offs; the framing of ventures in
terms of people, opportunity, context and deal; spotting and framing opportunities; the phases and
critical junctures in new venture formation; the importance and pitfalls of patent protection;
factors influencing the early growth of academic spin-offs; options for commercializing science
& technology, business models and value creation; value, valuation and risk/reward ratio in new
venture financing; How venture capitalists assess business plans and start-up companies.
Content Outline
Cases are based on situations and decisions that entrepreneurs have faced and that course
participants will be facing in preparing for and discussing in class.
1. Participants have to write a fully developed business plan that can be presented to stakeholders such
as scientists that invented the technology, the institutions that own the technology and investors that
are necessary to fund its commercialization.
2. The business plans are to be based on realistic, science- and technology- driven ideas or inventions.
3. Participants will usually work in teams of 2-4 persons to be able to accommodate and to enhance
the learning experience, though, if circumstances so require, individual participation may be
allowed.
4. Participants will interact with scientists or the inventors, i.e. the staff that has done the research on
which the business idea is based. The role of these staff members may differ from that of scientific
consultant to being actively involved as an academic entrepreneur.
