COURSE CURRICULUM

The Master of Engineering (Electrical Systems) is a comprehensive program comprising 13 academic units designed to deliver strong theoretical foundations and practical expertise across the key areas of electrical engineering. Developed with input from industry professionals and experts in renewable energy, the curriculum spans a wide range of topics to ensure graduates are well-equipped to address the needs of the modern power sector. Core units include Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution Systems, Electric Power System Analysis, Power Conversion, Renewable Energy Systems, Power Quality and Mitigation, and Professional Engineering Management. These subjects cover the essential components of electrical power systems from production to end-use, while also integrating automation, system reliability, and energy sustainability. Students also complete a major Project Thesis, worth 12 credit points, in which they conduct in-depth research and apply their engineering knowledge to real-world problems.The program includes four electives, allowing students to tailor their learning to areas of interest such as Power System Safety and Protection, System Stability Analysis, Programmable Logic Controllers, Industrial Process Control, Smart Grids, Substation Design, SCADA systems, Machine Learning for Automation, and Green Energy Technologies. This flexibility enables students to specialize in emerging technologies and advanced applications within the power and energy sector. Practical learning is reinforced through mandatory hands-on workshops and a professional practice unit, ensuring that students gain direct experience with industry-relevant tools and environments. Additionally, a professional experience component bridges the gap between academic learning and workplace expectations, preparing graduates for a smooth transition into engineering roles. The program supports a range of career pathways in utilities, consulting, renewable energy, and infrastructure development. It also serves as a strong foundation for further research or specialization. Designed with adaptability in mind, units may be completed in varying sequences based on prerequisites, personal schedules, and unit availability.
