Abstract
An ontology of electrical engineering curriculum is proposed. Preliminary discussions commence with a study of the learning outcome domains requirement by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA). The proposed ontology presents a common vocabulary that facilitates electrical engineering curriculum development. This forms the first step in examining the potential of creating an online presence for the larger EE community that include educators, students and industry. The immediate benefit would be a current and relevant curriculum designed by and for the EE community.
