Master of Engineering Master of Engineering Management - Electrical Energy Systems

University of Technology Sydney

This program allows students to complete the Master of Engineering (ME) and the Master of Engineering Management (MEM) in two years of full-time study. The course follows an integrated approach to professional practice through professional engineering subjects, subjects relating to the major, an independent graduate project (in the area of the major), and a set of electives. This course is for professional engineers who want to combine the Master of Engineering with a specific major with the Master of Engineering Management. This enables students to gain both technical and management skills in an accelerated way and complete two courses in two years rather than three years individually.Students who hold an undergraduate engineering degree are able to enhance their ability and knowledge through postgraduate-level studies in their respective majors, and gain knowledge and skills that enhance their ability to progress to engineering management roles.This major covers electrical engineering topics in Electrical Energy Systems. The topics include advanced power electronics, advanced energy conversion systems , energy storage technologies, microgrid control, microgrid operation and protection and studios in electrical power and energy systems. Students will learn skills and tools to tackle the challenges of microgrids both technically and socially responsible such as integrating multiple renewable energy resources and loads, microgrid stability and control, demand side response, and synchronising microgrids (DC and AC). Real-time simulation is widely used as the tool for system analysis and integration and concept proof. Experimental studies will be performed in laboratories. This major assumes prior fundamental knowledge of electrical (power) engineering.
