Master’s degree in Electrical Grid Networks

Master’s degree in Electrical Grid Networks

Program Description:

Electrical energy plays a key role in the economic development of any country. It is inevitably vital for the functioning of all the mechanisms that govern the different social dynamics. Without electricity for 24 hours is the worst-case scenario for an industrialized country.

Actually, electrical engineering, in all its dimensions (production, transport, distribution, conversion and control) has occupied a primordial place in the industrial sector of the countries and continues to be the subject of particular attention, scientific investment and continuous technological improvement.

Electrical engineering keep gaining for several decades in all industrial and domestic fields. This trend has only been reinforced in recent years, thanks to progress in power electronics, microprocessors and programmable logic controllers (PLC). In effect, controlling the operation of electrical engineering systems and processes with precision while minimizing the energy consumed is currently possible thanks to power electronic interfaces and advanced control techniques that perform real-time processing by means of microprocessors (and PLC) ever more powerful.

On another note, the optimization of electrical engineering systems and the improvement of their performance is a key issue for the sector thanks to the application of sustainable development concepts by reducing their weight and using recyclable materials. All these major technological developments recorded in recent years have increased the needs of industrial companies in terms of skills in the field of electrical engineering. Investing in training and preparing managers to meet these challenges becomes trivial. It is in this spirit that this training is offered. The training is structured in 4semesters that are structured as follows:

The first semester contains five fundamental units, five methodological units, two-discovery units, and one transverse unit.

The second semester contains five fundamental units, fourmethodological units, two-discovery units, and one transverse unit.

The third semester contains five fundamental units, threemethodological units, two-discovery units, and one transverse unit.

The last semester deals with an internship in a company in the field of the master’s degree, a preparation of a final project with a thesis defense.
