Power system engineering focuses on maintaining equilibrium across multiple dimensions. It's not just about matching generation with demand or managing reactive power flow, but also balancing energy costs against environmental considerations and ensuring supply reliability while optimizing infrastructure investments. This program equips you with skills to measure these competing factors and enhance system performance through technological innovation and advanced computational methods. During the initial term, you'll explore power system design and operations, examining both individual components (including generators, transmission lines, transformers, and power electronics) and their complex interactions. Through theoretical instruction and computational exercises, you'll master power flow analysis, fault assessment techniques, and methods for analyzing large-scale grid behavior. Hands-on experiments in our high-voltage lab provide practical insights into insulation coordination challenges.

Qualification Requirements
We require a good Upper Second Class Honours degree or international equivalent in an electrical and electronic engineering discipline. To progress to the second year of this course, we usually require performance at Distinction Level. Students who do not meet the criteria to progress to the second year will instead graduate with the one-year Electrical Power Systems Engineering MSc or an alternative appropriate qualification. When assessing your academic record, we take into account your grade average with particular emphasis on relevant course units and the standing of the institution where you studied your qualification. All applicants will need to demonstrate competency in English language. Applicants who do not already possess an acceptable English Language qualification will need to take a recognised test and attain the required English Language score: IELTS: at least 6.5 overall with no sub-test below 6.0. TOFEL iBT: at least 90 overall with no sub-test below 20. We do not accept 'MyBestScore'. Pearson PTE (UKVI) : at least 76 overall with no subtest below 70.
