Description of the educational programme

А Master’s degree student in the field of intelligent electric power systems and networks has the knowledge to ensure their effective and reliable operation in modern conditions.

Power systems are the most complex technical systems created by man. They unite almost all electrical installations in Russia and a number of foreign countries participating in the production, transmission and distribution of electricity in a single operation mode. For making operational and managerial decisions in such a system, we need in-depth knowledge in the fields of normal and emergency modes, digital relay protection and automation devices, intelligent control, the ability to analyze the operating modes of electric power systems and to optimize them.

Classes under the programme are held in the laboratories of relay protection and automation, physical and mathematical modelling of power systems, dispatch control, power systems with power converting equipment. In the process of training, students obtain knowledge focused on information technology, the introduction of intelligent control, the use of modern and promising systems of transmission and distribution of electricity. Special attention is paid to in-depth training in professional development courses taught by specialists from leading enterprises in the electric power industry, as well as to participation in the scientific activities of the Department together with its teachers and postgraduates.

Field of future profession

Master's degree training helps graduates to use modern digital devices and with their help to solve the problems of ensuring reliable operation of energy systems effectively.
