Master in Electrical Power Engineering

Sivilingeniør This master programme entitles you to use the protected title “Sivilingeniør”» Why study Electrical Power Engineering? Our society is going through a green transition from fossil fuels to more sustainable energy systems. The growing demand for electrical energy requires increased power production and grid upgrades. In addition, the transition raises new challenges to maintain reliability and safety of the power system. Thus, more specialists in electrical power engineering are needed to plan and implement new, smart (digital) solutions. The master programme at USN is closely connected to local industry, and national and international power companies. These contribute to teaching and provides student projects. With a master’s degree in Electrical Power Engineering, you will be an attractive candidate in a growing job market. You can choose a traditional campus study programme, or you can apply for the industrial master programme, where you work 50 % in a relevant company while you study. Semester exchange to USN Within this programme there are several exchange opportunities for students from partner universities. Please contact our programme coordinator for details and course lists. Application deadline is April 15 for autumn semester and October 15 for spring semester for exchange. Where can I work? With master’s degree in Electrical Power Engineering , you are qualified for jobs in planning and developing the power system of the future. You can work with electric power production, transmission, distribution (power grid), or with the components applied in power systems. Graduates now have jobs at: Power production companies (e.g., Skagerak Kraft, Havslund Eco, Vesterårskraft). Grid operators (e.g., Lede, Linja) Industry companies manufacturing power system components (e.g., ABB, Hitachi, Siemens, Schneider) The public sector (e.g., Bane NOR) Consultancies (e.g., Norconsult, COWI, Multiconsult, Bilfinger, Sweco) Industrial companies (e.g., Aibel, Kongsberg Gruppen, Aker Solutions) Working with the local business community The local business community will be involved throughout this programme, from guest speakers from our partnering institutions to visiting with relevant companies in the community. What you will learn The master’s programme offers a solid background for planning, modeling, and operating power systems. Examples of learning outcomes: Simulation skills necessary to analyze and optimize power systems. Operation of the power system for stable and reliable power supply (including monitoring, stability, protection, and frequency control). Modeling and control of dynamic hydro power systems. Introduction to offshore wind power. Design of power electronic components and their applications. Testing of power system components in the high-voltage and high-current laboratories at the Porsgrunn campus. We also offer electives on machine learning, cyber security, software engineering, and advanced control systems. Further studies Would you like to continue your studies? With a master ’s degree in Electrical Power Engineering, you may also be qualified for PhD-studies in Norway and abroad. Get international experience You can take parts of Electrical Power Engineering abroad. Studying or taking an internship abroad can give you the opportunity to expand your international competence, language skills, personal qualities and adaptability. It can also make you more attractive in the job market. We have agreements with foreign universities, colleges and internships adapted to your studies. Exchange for Electrical Power Engineering
