The Master of Engineering specialisation in Electrical Power comprises coursework, design exercises and research projects designed to enable students to acquire specialised skills and expertise in the field of Power Systems, specifically catering for the contemporary Smart electricity system. Making the electricity grid Smart compliant is a global priority. Upgrading electricity grids to 21st century standards requires incorporating power engineering with the latest digital communications systems and information technology areas (including sensors, electronics, controls and wireless devices). The course will enhance students’ academic experience through work-related learning. Active learning, strong contextualisation and industry relevance characterise the design, development and delivery of resources and course materials.
