Overview

Master of Engineering (Electrical)

Electrical engineers are designers and problem-solvers. 

They tackle large-scale electrical challenges, develop innovative technologies and improve the quality of modern life.

This intensive degree is suited to high-achieving engineering graduates, as well as engineers with relevant work experience.

Master of Engineering (Electrical) comprises a foundation year and an advanced studies year.

In this program at the University of Adelaide, you will:

  • practise modelling, analysing and operating electric energy systems
  • build communication and project management skills
  • gain an advanced understanding of mathematics and systems engineering
  • pursue specialist topics—from power quality and fault diagnostics to distributed generation technologies
  • undertake a significant research project.

You might become a project engineer for a national energy company. 

You could create and maintain sensor systems for smart cities. 

Perhaps you’ll help developing communities build electrical grids or renewable energy systems from scratch.
