Electrical Engineering

The programme provides the most up to date knowledge of electrical engineering research and business. The purpose of the programme is to provide students with a solid knowledge base needed for working in the power and energy industry, as well as in the electrical manufacturing industry. Fields of application include power transmission and distribution, electrical machines and components, electrical drives and industrial and power electronics.  Particularly important areas include engineering applications in vehicles, such as hybrid or electric cars, efficient use of electricity, including energy conservation and clean energy applications. Focus is also put on sustainable power generation, like photovoltaic and wind power solutions.

Our graduates are able to work in a very broad spectrum of fields from energy companies to the electrical manufacturing industry and the automation industry, the ICT system business, and often also for governmental bodies promoting sustainable development.

The programme cooperates actively with several internationally recognised universities in the form of student exchange, common research projects and visiting lecturers. The programme is also closely linked with industry; its master´s theses are usually commissioned by companies.

The programme contains a general part which covers the main fields of electrical engineering. After the common core studies, students can specialise either in power systems, electrical motors and drives, ICT applications in power systems or illumination engineering. Students can also take a supporting module of economics or industrial management to enhance their managerial skills.
