Program Highlights
The Electrical Power and Renewable Energy Engineering Program (EPRE) is designed to qualify its graduates in both fundamental and modern trends in electrical power and renewable energy systems, design, operation and control. The program is structured hierarchically based on strong mathematical and physics background while moving gradually up to fundamental electrical engineering subjects, and then advancing to the major specialty courses of power systems design, operation, installation, control, and economics.
The program pays significant attention to renewable electrical energy resources as well as the smart grid operation and control with the objective of environmental conservation and economical aspects. The program adopts the updated approaches and methodologies in teaching, learning activities and assessment with focus on achieving balance among academic background and professional skills of the graduates. Students are the central focus of the program by implanting self-learning attitude, peer discussions, and courses embedded engineering skills. The assessment techniques are devised in a way to avoid passing the courses unless the student gets the required competencies.
The Electrical Power and Renewable Energy Engineering Program is specialized in teaching all the courses related to Electrical Power and Renewable Energy Engineering, including courses for renewable energy systems, photovoltaic energy, solar energy, wind energy, energy transmission and distribution systems, energy systems analysis, generation and operation economics, power system protection, automatic control systems, electrical machines, power electronics, measurements and instrumentation, and graduation project.
The Electrical Power and Renewable Energy Engineering Program is also specialized in research and specialized studies in the field of electrical power and renewable energy engineering.
After completing the study of the courses mentioned in the list (144 credit hours) below, the students receive a bachelor’s degree in Electrical Power and Renewable Energy Engineering.
