The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) – Electrical and Renewable Energy Engineering Major offers in-depth knowledge in circuit design, digital systems, and power electronics. Students study units like Power Engineering Design, Power Electronics, and Embedded System Design, developing skills for innovative technological solutions. Career prospects include roles as electrical engineers, systems designers, and telecommunications specialists, preparing graduates for impactful careers in technology development, energy sectors, and electronic manufacturing.

At Royal Institute of Colombo, students are given the opportunity to pursue the first two years of their degree in Sri Lanka, all from the comfort of their home, saving substantial costs. RIC ensures a smooth transition to Deakin Australia to complete the final two years.
