Undergraduate and ContinuingEducation and CommunicationThe Division of Electric PowerEngineering is involved in bothundergraduate and graduateeducation at Chalmers. Theundergraduate courses areoffered, either by the divisionsitself or in cooperation with otherdivisions. The main courseprogram is giving within theMaster‟s Program in ElectricPower Engineering which isperformed together with theDivision of High VoltageEngineering. In addition to the The Science Festivalcourses the Division is involved in several activities to promote the area to thepublic. In this Section these activities are described in more detail.Educational program and communicationMaster’s Program in Electric Power EngineeringThe Division offer an international master program which provides students withadvanced and state-of-the-art knowledge in electric power engineering, buildingboth on the theoretical fundaments as well as building a good practical andexperimental base. The program covers the areas of high voltage engineering,electric machines and drives, power electronics and power systems. The programalso covers the department‟s profile regarding the environment and renewableenergy sources.The overall purpose of the program is to serve society and industry with basic andadvanced knowledge in the field of electric power through well-educated engineers.The objective of the master‟s program is to impart an advanced-level educationin Electric Power Engineering to students who already hold basic undergraduatelevel training in a branch of Electrical Engineering.Ola Carlson is the coordination for the Master‟s Program in Electric PowerEngineering13 |
