| Programme description | Norway has a unique position in terms of energy resources. This has resulted in Norway gaining a leading position within certain fields of electric power engineering, such as utilization of hydro power and other renewables, deregulated power markets, and offshore and maritime electrical installations. The Department of Electric Power Engineering at NTNU is Norway's main supplier of education within this field. Together with Sintef Energy Research it is also a major research unit. It is therefore natural for the Department to launch an international master program in electric power engineering with strong emphasis on sustainability within the energy field. Electric Power Engineering is important to industrialized as well as developing countries. This Master´s Programme aims to provide candidates with knowledge and skills for planning, design and operation of Electrical Power Systems. Furthermore, the programme aims to develop new methods and components for effective, reliable and sustainable systems. The master students take part in research activities and have access both to advanced laboratories and experienced researchers. The Department holds a forefront position among European universities within the power engineering sector. |
