General Education Requirement (GER) Electives
For NTU undergraduates who wish find out more about the role of electric power in modern society, the Division offers the following highly popular GER elective course:
EE8085 - Electricity for Modern Society
Power and Clean Energy Specialization Programme
For final year students in the B.Eng (EEE) programme, the Division offers a package
of courses which qualify the candidates as belonging to the popular Power and Clean
Energy Specialization. This specialization is aimed at enhancing the
market value of EEE graduates who wish to embark on a career in the electric power and
renewable energy sectors. It consists of two design electives and four technical electives.
Candidates have to be in the Electrical and Systems Engineering Final Year Option of the B.Eng
(EEE) programme to take these specialization courses:
EE4503 – Power Engineering Design
EE4504 – Design of Clean Energy Systems
EE4530 – Power System Analysis and Control
EE4532 – Power Electronics and Drives
EE4533 – Power Apparatus and System Protection
EE4534 – Modern Distribution Systems with Renewable Resources
M.Sc (Power Engineering) Programme
At postgraduate level, the Division offers the M.Sc in Power Engineering programme,
with a yearly intake of about 60 students. This programme is designed for electrical engineering
graduates who are currently working in the electric power and energy sector, or who are planning
to upgrade to this area. Candidates have to take eight courses and a project, or nine courses
and an independent study module. The courses are conducted in the evenings.
WHU-NTU “3.5+1.5” Double-Degree Programme
Since 2007, the Division has been pioneering an NTU partnership with the Wuhan University
(WHU) of China to offer a joint double-degree programme, allowing students from China an
opportunity to obtain a B.Eng from WHU and an M.Sc from NTU in a total of only five years.
This innovative programme is known as the “3.5+1.5” programme, where the candidate
spends 3.5 years in WHU and 1.5 years in NTU. The success of this programme has led to both
universities considering expanding the scope to beyond the electrical power engineering area.
Ph.D Programme
The Division takes in about ten to fifteen Ph.D candidates a year. Our NTU Ph.D programme is
research intensive and each candidature typically last about four years. The Division has
both full-time and part-time candidates. Most full-time Ph.D candidates are funded by research
scholarships from NTU or external organizations. The research being carried out by the candidates
in the Division can be broadly classified under the following strategic research areas:
- Clean and Renewable Energy Systems
- Intelligent Energy Distribution and Storage
- Efficient Energy Conversion and Utilization
- Power Systems and Power Electronics
