The science and engineering education programs at East West University emphasize hands-on experiences of students in labs. University labs play a central role in supporting faculty and student research. For these reasons, the university is committed to developing and maintaining state-of-the-art labs for students and faculty members.
East West University has developed one of the best lab facilities in the country for computer science and engineering, information and communication engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, electronics and telecommunication engineering and pharmacy programs.
The following is a description of the labs within the Faculty of Sciences and Engineering.
Electrical Circuits and Machines Lab: This lab has state-of-the-art Lab-Volt electro-mechanical training systems that can be used to carry out experiments on DC machines, transformers, induction motors, and synchronous machines. This laboratory also has inductor, capacitor, and resistor banks, single and three-phase variable AC power sources, DC power supplies, oscilloscopes, signal generators and various types of measuring instruments to enable students to conduct experiments on electrical circuits.
Electronics Lab: Work related to electronics and power electronics courses is performed in this lab. It is equipped with modern digital storage oscilloscopes, analog and digital trainer boards, signal generators, DC power supply and all types of IC chips, small-signal MOSFETs, BJTs and other semiconductor devices.
Switchgear and Control Systems Lab: Experiments and project works on switchgear, controls and data acquisition are done in this lab. The lab has five sets of ADVANTECH data acquisition cards run by dual-core computers to detect various types of electrical faults and subsequent operations of relays on custom-made fault simulation boards.
VLSI Lab: Design and simulation type lab work is performed in the VLSI Lab. It has more than 40 state-of-the-art dual core workstations and 2 servers running on both MS Windows and Linux platforms. A wide range of engineering and design software tools, including ADS, MAGIC, HSPICE, ANSOFT, MATLAB, PSPICE, etc. are available in this lab.
Software Engineering Lab: The Software Engineering Lab is equipped with a HP Server, Lenovo desktop computers, and a multimedia projector. The lab provides a range of software to support lab classes and research works in programming, database systems, information system design, software engineering, computer networking, and high-performance simulation and modeling.
Digital Systems Lab: The Digital Systems Lab is equipped with instruments that range from digital storage oscilloscopes, digital trainer boards, micro-controllers, interfacing adapters, data acquisition cards and other supporting peripherals. It also provides hardware devices for FPGA design.
Physics Lab: The Physics Laboratory is equipped with modern instruments for carrying out everyday physics experiments. The dark room facility helps students in carrying out optical experiments.
Laboratory Facilities in the Department of Pharmacy: The Department of Pharmacy has seven laboratories for students and faculty members where they can perform experiments.
