Abstract

Engineering education in Malaysia is strictly regulated to ensure that quality graduates who are competent for the industry are developed. Yet, the unemployment rate of engineers is still at a worrying level. One of the reasons is that the industry deemed engineering graduates to be not industry-ready. Electrical and electronic engineering is a sizable industry; therefore, the country offers many electrical and electronic engineering programmes. In this paper, the integration of standards education into the electrical engineering curriculum is proposed. The aim of such integration is to provide early exposure to electrotechnical standards, which are pertinent technical documents referenced and used in the industry. The framework of how such integration can take place is proposed. The benefits of standards education are discussed.
