Our one-year MSc in Energy and Power Engineering may interest you if you have a background in general engineering or science.

Qualified electrical engineers are desperately needed by the power industry. There is also a severe shortage of power engineering expertise in government bodies and finance organisations, for example, where a detailed knowledge of energy supply and demand is increasingly important as societies develop and adapt to pressing environmental and economic constraints, dwindling reserves of fossil fuels and the emergence of new energy technologies.

Course programme

Core Modules:

Five core modules cover the fundamental aspects of modern power systems and energy conversion technologies, including renewable energy generation and energy storage.
  • Electrical Machines and Drives
  • Fuel Cells and Energy Storage
  • Operation and Control of Power Systems
  • Advanced Power Electronic Converters and Devices
  • Renewable Energy
Optional Modules:

Three optional modules cover ‘non-electrical’ technologies that are crucial to the safe and reliable operation of modern power and energy systems such as heat transfer, signal and image processing, wireless communications, optical communications and systems modelling.
  • ASICs, MEMS and Smart Devices
  • Heat Transfer Theory and Design
  • Optical Communication Systems
  • Power Electronic Converters and Devices
