The Electrical Engineering and Renewable Energy Systems MSc will provide you with expertise and practical experience in the application of engineering as part of the latest technological developments and increasing use of power electronics.
The theme of power electronics runs through the course options in its application to modern technologies such as renewable energy systems and the development of embedded generation and micro grids.
You will have the opportunity to work with leading industry as part of the course, on field trips and as an industry placement option.
At least a 2:2 undergraduate honours degree or equivalent in a related engineering discipline, such as Electrical Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Electrical Power Engineering or Power Engineering. Alternatively, if you have significant appropriate experience, your application will be considered, provided that you satisfy the University that you are capable of responding to the challenge of postgraduate work.
Career prospects for Electrical Engineers are excellent given a shortage worldwide. Prospects are particularly good in renewables due to the upward trend in investment in this sector.
Students on this programme have the opportunity to enhance their studies with a placement year, gain valuable work experience, and take part in international activities—potentially supported by the Turing funding.
