📚About the Program

Providing electrical power in a modern economy is about generation, distribution and use in a safe, economic and sustainable way. Fossil fuel energy now combines with solar, wind and tidal energy to create “embedded” generation which needs a “smart grid” to automatically manage user production and demand while maintaining the quality of the supply. MTU’s electrical engineering course is designed to equip technologists for this environment. The general fields of study are renewable generation, transmission and distribution, plant automation, motor control, power systems planning, and industrial management and services. The syllabus is designed to prepare graduates for work in electrical power and automation systems. The high academic standard of the course is complemented by a strong emphasis on applications and project work. State-of-the-art lab equipment and software prepares graduates for the work environment. Class work is supplemented by field trips to major employers within the greater locality. Students undertake a relevant work placement of no less than 7 weeks between April and September of third year. The placement is supported by a member of lecturing staff in MTU together with a workplace mentor. The aim of the work placement module is to introduce the student to the types of work practices, procedures and environments that they are likely to encounter as professional engineers. The module will provide students with structured opportunities to participate in the practical application of theoretical knowledge gained during the programme as well as develop key graduate competencies.
