• Accreditation of B.Sc. in EEE program got renewal by the Board of Accreditation for Engineering and Technical Education (BAETE), Bangladesh in 2018. The program is accredited by BAETE since 2014. Thus the graduates from the Department of EEE, UAP can become a member of Institution of Engineers, Bangladesh (IEB). 

• The Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Uap has been awarded the grade “Very Good” by the External Peer Review Team consisting of international and local education experts to evaluate the quality of degree awarding programs of any universities of Bangladesh. This event of assessment is facilitated and monitored by the University Grant Commission of Bangladesh under the Higher Education Quality Enhancement Program (HEQEP). It is also a matter of pride that all departments of UAP that are offering Bachelor degrees also been awarded the grade of “Very Good”.

• Opening of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) UAP student branch and IEEE UAP Women in Engineering (WIE) branch is another milestone of success.  IEEE is the world's largest association of technical professionals with more than 423,000 members in over 160 countries around the world. IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) is one of the largest international professional organizations dedicated to promoting women engineers and scientists and inspiring girls around the world to follow their academic interests to a career in engineering. Currently seventy UAP students have IEEE student membership following one of the largest student branch among private universities in Bangladesh. The student members of this branch are able to acquire different facilities nationally and globally to complement their academic skills.

• Since its beginning, the department has been producing quality graduates every year. In Fall 2018,  83 students earned B. Sc. degree in EEE. Numerous graduates from the department are currently doing jobs in government and well-reputed private organizations in Bangladesh. Some of them are doing higher studies in Europe, Australia and North America. Some of the EEE alumni become entrepreneurs who are creating jobs for future EEE alumni.

• Dr. MD Shahrukh Adnan Khan, MIET (As Principal Organizer) and Md. Masum Howlader (As Co-Organizer) from the Department of EEE, University of Asia Pacific have successfully organized a Special Session in IEEE Conference in a foreign platform that is Special Session on Power Control and Energy Management (SS-PCEM) which was held in 7th IEEE International Conference on Smart Grid and Clean Energy (ICSGCE), 29 May- 1st June, 2018, University Tunku Abdul Rahman, Malaysia. Dr. MD Shahrukh Adnan Khan along with his research team presented 3 papers in that conference among them one was selected as one of the best papers of ICSGCE . Dr. Shahrukh also chaired the Special Session of PCEM and was part of the Technical Program Committee member (TPC) of ICSGCE. He would like to acknowledge ICSGCE Secretary General Professor Dr. Jason Z. Kang, IEERD and UAP for supporting the research collaboration. 

• Secured a position among top 10 ideas in the competition titled “১ আইডিয়াতে বাজিমাত” arranged by Ministry of Power, Energy and Mineral Resources, Bangladesh on March 21, 2017.

• First Prize winner on Amps and Speakers Contest 2016 organized by instructables.com and sponsored by Pi Supply and Justboom.

• 1st position in project exhibition title “3D printed myoelectric prosthetic hand for upper limb amputees” arranged by Bangladesh Physics Olympiad at Dhaka University in 2016.

• 2nd position in project exhibition title “3D printed EMG robotic prosthetic hand with sensing ability” in the 1st Bangladesh Electronics Olympiad at Dhaka University in 2015.

• 3rd position on project exhibition title “Multipurpose drone using optic flow sensing” at ‘67th engineers day’ 2015 at Institution of Engineers Bangladesh (IEB).

• Championship award for “Multipurpose drone using optic flow sensing” on project exhibition 2014 in ‘10 years celebration of EEE at UAP’.

Research Fund Received

On February 2, 2019, the Department has received a ‘Prototype Development and Commercialization Fund’ for a project on, ‘Cost effective - Real Time Data Logger’,  jointly from the Government Ministry of Power, Energy and Mineral Resources (MPEMR) and ESAB Innovation Center (EIC). The objective of the project is to develop a prototype device and verify its commercial viability. It is a very low-cost real-time data logger for solar system which stores important parameters of the solar photovoltaic system such as voltage, current, battery voltage, energy received from the panel as well less provided to load in SD card. It also uploads the data to the cloud and the user can monitor the data from mobile apps. The main purpose of the Real Time Data Logger is to measure real time electrical energy consumption in both residential and commercial loads. The data logger invented is much cheaper than what is available in the market --- the market ones cost around Tk 15,000 whereas the invented data logger will cost only 2,000 Tk. This data logger will help to achieve energy conservation from the user side. By implementing this energy consumption from used side will be controlled and less so both user and supplier will be benefited.

Students' Achievements

• EEE Department Project Club has participated and attained the Runners-up position in ROBO SOCCER contest at Mecceleration 2019 organized by Islamic University of Technology (IUT). The event is organized annually by the Department of Mechanical and Chemical Engineering (MCE) of IUT where several interesting competition namely ROBO RACING, ROBO SOCCER, ROBO RIOT, HACKATHON, OLYMPIAD, etc. are held. Including the two teams from the Dept. of EEE, UAP, a total of 60 teams from different public and private universities of Bangladesh have participated in the ROBO SOCCER contest. UAP_ALIEN_BOT led by Md. Shariful Islam Rana from the fourth year first semester of Dept. of EEE, UAP was pitted against a team from BRAC University in the final round of the contest. It was a nail-biting finish where the UAP_ALIEN_BOT obtained 2nd place and took home a certificate, a crest, and Tk. 15,000 worth of prize money. 

• Department of EEE obtained the “Champions” and the “1st Runner Up position” in a national competition titled ‘Power and Energy Hackathon 2017’ organized by Ministry of Power, Energy and Mineral resources. The event was inaugurated by Honorable State Minister, Nasrul Hamid (MP), as the Chief Guest at International Convention City Bashundhara (ICCB) on 20th April, 2017. Teams of the Department of EEE were the only team who won two consecutive prizes in the entire competition.  As many as 390 teams and 49 information technology teams from universities, industries and professionals have registered for the “Power & Energy Hackathon 2017” competition.
