Electrical Engineering is divided into two basic programs, Power
Engineering and Electronics. The students decide about taking up
the particular program when qualifying for admission in the first
semester. The first three semesters’ program, which is
common for both Degree Programs, is mainly based on courses in
mathematics, physics, fundamentals of electrical engineering and
information science, which provide the students with the
fundamental professional knowledge in their particular field.
During the following three semesters, students are exposed to
professional education in their specific area of concentration.
They are offered a modern program which provides both the
fundamental education in classic electrical engineering courses
(theoretical electrical engineering, electrical machines,
networks), and education in power electronics and control
engineering. This education is necessary for further study of
modern electrical engineering systems. This is performed in the
fourth year of studies in which the students can take up one of
the two major areas of concentration. Teaching is performed via
the theoretical lectures and the laboratory work, with the
application of computers as a current engineering tool.
Industrial Power
Engineering area of concentration provides the students with the
skills necessary for the application of electricity in industry,
transport, and other branches of economy. The program
predominantly deals with electromotive drives and electrical
plants associated to analog and digital computer-based control
systems. In short, this is a field of electrical engineering
which deals with the application of electrical energy in
sophisticated engineering systems, applying industrial
electronics, and taking into account the requirements of the
modern technological systems.
Graduate engineers of power engineering can work and specialize in jobs dealing with research, development, design, construction, and maintenance of electrical appliances in electric-power plants, industry, and transport. It also deals with electrical machines, power electronics devices, controlled electromotive drives, etc.
The Electric Power Systems area of concentration is oriented to
problems of generation, transmission, and distribution of
electrical energy, taking into account all requirements of the
modern world (ecology, rationalized economizing with energy,
etc.) In addition, power engineering balance sheets, classical
and alternative power sources, transmission and distribution
networks, management and planning of power engineering systems,
control and protection of electrical plants, and high-voltage
engineering are also studied. Computer technology which is
applied in all parts of a power engineering system, offers a
strong support in problem solving and knowledge acquisition
process.
There is a lack of electrical engineers in both home and world economy. By taking up the Power Engineering Degree Program, therefore, you can have a calm and peaceful future.
